This species can be easily separated from nivicinctus Chevrolat 

 in having the upper surface bluish black, coarsely alveolate -punctate, 

 nearly glabrous, and by the different markings on the elytra. 



TILLOCLYTUS CUBAE, new species 



Small, elongate, slightly depressed above, opaque, and the pro- 

 notum pubescent. Above black, each elytron with a rather broad, 

 transverse, feebly arcuate, white fascia near middle, the fascia wider 

 at lateral margin than at sutural margin, posterior half of elytron 

 yellow, the anterior margin of the yellow area extending obliquely 

 backward from the white fascia at sutural margin to the lateral 

 margin at apical third, inclosing a triangular, black spot behind the 

 white fascia; beneath dark reddish brown, tarsi paler, last three 

 abdominal segments pale yellow, and basal halves of the middle and 

 posterior femora white ; antenna brownish yellow, with the basal and 

 two apical joints dark brown. 



Head coarsely, densely ocellate-punctate, and rather densely clothed 

 with long, recumbent, whitish p>ubescence, front distinctly wider 

 than long, vaguely convex, flat between the antennal tubercles, 

 which are widely separated, and slightly elevated; eyes small, ob- 

 long, rather strongly convex, and slightly emarginate. Antenna 

 slightly longer than the body, joints cylindrical, sparsely clothed 

 with long, fine, erect hairs; joints 3 to 6 slightly enlarged at tips; 

 first joint robust, cylindrical, feebly, gradually enlarged toward 

 apex, slightly longer than the third joint, which is subequal in 

 length to the fourth. 



Pronotum slightly wider than long, subequal in width at base and 

 apex, and widest at middle ; sides strongly, arcuately rounded ; disk 

 moderately convex, even ; surface densely, coarsely ocellate-punctate, 

 and rather densely clothed with very long, fine, semierect, white 

 hairs, which partially conceal the surface. Scutellum small, triangu- 

 lar, and narrowly truncate at apex.
