Guatemala. — Cacao, Trece Aguas, Alt a Vera Paz, April 23 (Barber). 

 This larva seem- to be referable here. It is quoted by Caudell as 

 Psalis, species [1907 2 , p. 172]. 



Subfamily ]<'.( JHINOSOMATIN. K.

Africa.— Liberia. Mount Coffee (K. P. Currie), one female. 



Subfamily PSALIN.i:. 



Genus PSALIS Serville. 



1. PULCHRA Rehn. 



Nicaragua. — 1873, one male. "Accession L3755." 

 Trinidad. One male (Busck). Caudell's specimen [1907 1 , p. 167]. 

 Caudell [1907 1 , p. 167], tells us that Labia pictipennis of Brunei- 

 (1906) is a synonym. It is very close to P. rost nfo rgi Burr. The color, 

 especially of the latter, is so variable that I can only find the hairy 

 body and blunter angles al the sides of the sixth to the ninth abdomi- 

 nal segments of the male to distinguish the latter. P. pulchra is 

 probably identical with P. percheron Guerin. 



2. AMERICANA Palisot de Beauvois. 



Colombia. -Bogota, one broken specimen. 



Santo Domingo. San Francisco Mountains, September, 1905 

 (Busck), two females (see Caudell, 1907 1 ) with the spot of the elytra 

 ill-defined, ocher yellow in color. 



Cuba. Cayamas (Schwarz). 



Immature specimens of most or all species of this genus may be, 

 and probably often are, confused with Anisolabis, as Rehn rightly 

 suggests [1903 2 , p. 301]. 



3. GAGATINA Klug. 



Porto Rico. I'tuado, January, 1899 (Busck), and El Vunque 

 (Dr. ('. W. Richmond). 



Santo Domingo. San Francisco Mountains, September, 1905 

 (Busck). [Caudell, 1907 1 , p. 170.] 



These arc the specimens recorded by Rehn as Apterygida buscki 

 [1903 4 , p. 129; type!] and by Caudell as SpMngolabis buscki [1907, 

 p. 170]. They only differ in their smaller size and slenderer build 

 from Peruvian and Ecuadorian specimens of Psalis colombiana 

 Bormans, which is identical with Carcinophora robusta Scudder, 

 which, in my opinion, is indistinguishable from Psalis <i<i<jali)i<t of 

 Burmeister, a species about which ooonehas Felt certain hitherto. I 

 consider that the genus ( 'arcinopTiora coincides with Psalis, as the only 

 character, absence of wings, is valueless. .1. buscki would then bean 

 insular, somewhat stunted, race. The finest specimens known are 

 those recorded by Borelli from Costa Rica; some of these have a 

 small yellowish spol near the lateral margin of the elytra; this repre-
