206 BULLETIN 18 2, UNITED STATES NATIO'NAL MUSEUM 



Type locality. — St. Vincent. 



Types. — One specimen labeled type in the British Museum. 



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



St. Vincent: (Cameron, 1913). 



Specimens examined. — I have seen only the unique type. 



Remarks. — ^When I examined the type I made a note that the punc- 

 tate stria on the elytron has three punctures but is entirely lacking 

 on one elytron. This species is similar in coloration to smifhi, and 

 I regard it as a doubtful species. The length of the "clypeal 

 spines" ^^ is of no value whatever, and there appears to be some 

 variability in the impressed punctures of the head and pronotum. 



I find no record of its habits. 



4. STYLOPODUS LAEVIVENTRIS (Cameron) 



Megalops laevivcntris Cameron, 1913b, p. 326. — Leng aiul Mutchleb, 1917, p. 



198. 

 Megalopsidia laeviventris (Cameron) Scheeepei-tz, 1933, p. 1142. 



Description. — Black, shining. Head with eyes nearly as wide as 

 elytra: vertex in front with a feeble broad semicircular impression 

 enclosing the anterior end of a large elevation; elevation with two 

 or three punctures impressed in transverse row ; with distinct punc- 

 tures; antennal segments 9 and 10 transverse; clypeus truncate, 

 angles acutely but only moderately produced. Pronotum subcylin- 

 drical, as long as wide; sides not tuberculate but with prominence 

 at sides anteriorly; with four transverse grooves, first feeble and 

 impunctate, second obsolete except for three or four small depres- 

 sions on each side, third moderately deep with punctiform depres- 

 sions laterally, interrupted and deflected at middle, fourth basal, 

 moderate, punctate; intervals moderately convex, shining. Elytra 

 nearly one-half wider than pronotum, over one-fifth wider than long; 

 humeral callus moderate; sutural stria impressed; discal group of 

 punctures separated from suture by distinct elevation; group con- 

 sisting of three or four punctures. Abdoinen impunctate except 

 feebly on apical segments. Length, 314 to 4 mm. 



Type locality. — St. Vincent. (Cameron records the locality as 

 Grenada but the labeled type is from St. Vincent.) 



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

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

 actual rank of paratypes. Three additional specimens are in the 

 same collection. 



Records. — The following arc the records known to me : 



"As later pointod out by Dr. Cameron (10.'?0, p. 315) the so-called clypeal spines are In 

 reality elongate processes of the sides of the labrum.
