NEW CERAMBYCID BEETLES FISHER 199 



EUPOGONIUS WICKHAMI, new species 



This species is closely allied to haUknsis Fisher, but it differs from 

 that species in being smaller, narrower, and more cylindrical ; in hav- 

 ing the antenna shorter than the body, only ciliate beneath with long, 

 erect hairs, the third and fourth joints clothed with whitish pubes- 

 cence on basal two-thirds, the apical joints more sparsely pubescent, 

 and feebly, narrowly annulated with white pubescence at the bases, 

 the elytra more evenly variegated with paler yellow and white pu- 

 bescence, the whitish pubescence predominating; and in having the 

 erect hairs on the legs shorter and sparser. 



Length, 6.25-6.75 mm ; width, 2.12-2.25 mm. 



Type locality. — Egg Island, Bahamas. 



Type and paratype. — U.S.N.M. no, 50975. 



Rciiiar'ks. — Described from two specimens (one type). The tj'pe 

 was collected at the type locality on May 13 by H. F. Wickham, and

HYPSIOMA INSULARIS, new species 



Robust, elongate-triangular, uniformly dark reddish brown, with 

 the basal two-thirds of the antennal joints pale yellow, and the sur- 

 face above and beneath concealed by the dense, pale brownish white 

 and whitish pubescence. 



Head with the front longer than wide, flat, the sides parallel and 

 elevated, flat between the antennal tubercles, which are strongly ele- 

 vated, nearly contiguous at bases, and obliquely divergent; surface 

 with a narrow, longitudinal groove extending from occiput to epis- 

 toma, coarsely, sparsely punctate, variegated Avith rather long, dense, 

 recumbent, somewhat wav}'', brownish white and whitish pubescence. 

 Eyes coarsely granulated, deeply emarginate, separated from each 

 other on the top by twice the width of the upper lobe, the lower lobe 

 longer than wide. Antenna about as long as the body, rather densely 

 ciliate beneath, densely clothed with short, recumbent pubescence, 

 which is whitish on the basal two-thirds and variegated on the apical 

 third of the joints; first joint elongate, subcylindrical, strongly, 

 rather abruptly clavate toward apex, slightly longer than the fourth 

 joint, which is two-thirds as long* as the third, the third joint slightly 

 arcuate. 



Pronotum two-thirds wider than long, slightly narrower at apex 

 than at base; sides unarmed, slightly sinuate, feebly narrowed from 

 base to apex; disk uneven, more or less tumid on each side of middle, 

 feebly, narrowly, transversely depressed near base and anterior 

 margin; surface sparsely, coarsely, irregularly punctate, variegated
