Elongate-ova], convex, subcuneate, rather shining-, rufo-testaceous, 

 often more or less clouded with piceous-black, the head and beak to- 

 ward apex always darker ; vestiture not very dense, consisting of 

 short stout pointed and semi-erect hairs, whitish in color. Beak 

 strongly punctate, veiy feebly sulcate, moderately stout, almost 

 perfectly straight, as long as the head and prothorax, with the an- 

 tenn;e inserted at apical two-fifths in the female, a little shorter with 

 the antennai inserted at apical third in the male ; antenna? moderate, 

 the basal joint of the funicle as long as the next two; club rather 

 large, densely pubescent and piceous-black. Prothorax small, sub- 

 ex lindrical, with broadly arcuate sides, one-third to two-fifths wider 

 than long, not constricted at apex, convex, finely, rather densely 

 punctate, without distinct impunctate line. Elytra at base fully 

 one-third wider than the prothorax, feebly, gradually inflated pos- 

 teriorly and widest behind the middle, the apex thence gradually, 

 acutely ogival ; sutural notch small but distinct, broadly angulate ; 

 strial punctures rather coarse, deep and close-set ; intervals feebly 

 convex, about twice as wide as the strial punctures, minutely, 

 sparsely punctate. Under surface deep black and rather dull 

 thi'oughout, finely, confusedly punctate. Length 3.2-.3.'7 mm. ; 

 width 1.25-1.6 mm. 



Alaska., A rather isolated species easily recognizable by its 

 narrowly convex and cuneate-oval form, almost perfectly straight 

 beak darker toward tip, rather fine pronotal punctures and several 

 other characters.

Narrowly oblong-oval, convex, dark rufo-testaceous throughout; 

 sterna often blackish ; integuments somewhat shining, rather densely 

 clothed with small elongate and recumbent scales, yellowish-white 

 in color, feebly, sparsely and ver}' indefinitely, coarsely mottled on 

 the elytra toward the suture, and less dense in middle two-thirds of 

 the pronotum. Beak evenly, quite distinctly arcuate, equally, evenly 

 cylindrical throughout and as long as the head and prothorax in 

 both sexes, densely punctate, longitudinally, feebly carinulate later- 

 ally, the antenna? inserted at fully apical third in the male and but 

 slightly behind this point in the female ; basal joint of the funicle 

 barely as long as the next three ; club small, stout, very alirupt, 

 the basal joint in great part subglabrous. Prothorax wider than
