1. Psciiiloxiicheila bipustulata, Latreille, Voy. de Hunilioklt & Bdiqiland, Ins. 



p. 153, t. 16, figs. 1, 2 {Cicindela). 



Hab. Nanegal (3-4000 feet). A single example. Latreille gives the lumks 

 of tile Amazons as the locality of Humboldt and Bonpland's specimens. In 

 his description he seems to include this and the next form (C amjuMatu) in 

 one species. 



2. ]'. angustata, Chaudoii', Cat. Coll. (Mcuidelula', p. {j-2. 



Jfa6. Milligalli (6230 feet "-'). I have specimens from North Peru, and 

 from Macas in Ecuador taken by Buckley, and, according to Chaudoii', it has 

 also been obtained in East Peru. Mi'. Whyinper's specimen is much nairowei' 

 in form, both of thorax and elytia, than P. hiimstulata, and generally is of a 

 greenish instead of a blue colour.

3. Anisotarsus Peruvicm,us, Dejean, Spec. Gen. Col., iv, p. 289. 



Hab. Nanegal (3-4000 feet). One example, doubtfully referred to this 

 species, tire thorax being more quadrate, i.e. with straightei' sides and less 

 rounded hind angles. Dejean's type-specimens came from S. Lorenzo, in 

 Peru ; they vary in colour from Itright green or blue to Ijronzed Ijlack, and 

 the ^ , if not also the $ , is shining on the upper surface.

 Mr. H. W. Bates. His personal contribution extends from p. 7 to p. 39. — E. IT.
