1. STYLOPODUS SMITHI (Cameron) 



Megalops smithi Cameron, 1913b, p. 328. — Leng and Mutchler, 1917, p. 198. 

 Mcgalopsidia smithi (Cameron) Scheerp£Xtz, 1933, p. 1143. 



Description. — Black, elytra yellow with humeral callus, base, suture, 

 sides, and apical margins narrowly rufopiceous. Head wdth eyes 

 broader than elytra; ninth and tenth segments of antennae transverse; 

 vertex in front with a circular impression enclosing a smooth round 

 central elevation; with another elevation above each eye posteriorly; 

 impressions of vertex not very distinctly punctate; clypeus obtusely 

 produced at center, with prominent projection at lateral angles. 

 Pronotufn subcylindrical, sides bituberculate in front; as wide as long; 

 with four transverse punctate grooves, the first very feeble along the 

 margin, the second scarcely interrupted at middle but finely punc- 

 tate, third interrupted at middle by a ridge and more coarsely punc- 

 tate, fourth along posterior margin not interrupted. Elytra one-third 

 wider than pronotum, one-third wider than long; humeral callus 

 prominent but sutural callus absent; sutural stria distinct but disk 

 entirely without impressions or punctures. Abdomen impunctate, 

 shining. Length, 31/2 mm. 



Type locality. — St. Vincent. 



Types. — One example labeled type in the British Museum. Eleven 

 other specimens in the same series have the importance if not the 

 actual status of paratypes. Four additional specimens w^ere found 

 in another series in the same collection. 



Records. — The following is the only record known to me : 



St. Vincent: (Cameron, 1913; British Museum). 



Specimens examined. — I have seen only the 16 examples in the 

 British Museum. 



RemarJx's. — This species seems distinct by its entirely smooth and 

 even elytra. 



The example I borrowed from the British Museum is labeled "Lot 

 14, Aprl. 5. 400 ft. Under bark. Shady glen."

 bert, 1911, p. 151.
