apical two-fifths ; humeral callus not prominent ; disk polished, rather finely, 

 abruptly, evenly striate, the intervals flat, a little more than twice as wide as 

 the grooves, each witli a single series of fine, rather distant punctures. Abdo- 

 men feebly, not closely punctured. Prosternum broadly, very feebly impressed 

 along the middle, witli a small feeble subtransverse fovea behind the apex, the 

 sides of the longitudinal impression slightly prominent in the form of a low 

 obtuse ridge for a short distance before each coxa, but without trace of ante- 

 coxal cusp, the coxse separated by slightly less than one-half of their own 

 width. Length 2.2-3.2 mm. ; widtli 0.85-1.4 mm.

The above description is drawn from the male. In the female 

 the beak is slightly more slender very feebly arcuate and as long as 

 the head and prothorax, with the auteunaj inserted at or just behind 

 the middle. The antennte arc longer and more slender, the second 

 funicular joint almost as long as the next two, and the prosternum 

 is perfecth^ fiat, separating the coxie by fully three-fourths of their 

 own width. Goncurrens is allied to conjinis, but differs in its 

 much longer beak, especially in the male, and by its narrower an- 

 tenaal club. Numerous examples.

Oblong-oval, decidedly convex, black throughout, moderately 

 shining, smooth, the vestiture consisting above and beneath of long 

 sparse narrow white but very distinct squamules. arranged in single 

 lines on the elytral intervals. Beak not quite as long as the pro- 

 thorax and slender in the female, distinctly shorter and thicker in 

 the male, feebly arcuate, slightly gibbous at the basal constriction, 

 which is fine but distinct, roughly punctured and dull in the male,_a 

 little smoother in the female, the antennae very slightly ante-median 

 in both se.xes, short, stout, the first funicular joint as long as the 

 next three, two to seven small, equal in length but increasing in 

 width; club relatively large, fully as long as the preceding six 

 joints, densely, rather coarsely pubescent, the basal joint composing 

 nearly one-half the mass. Prothorax not quite as long as wide, 

 parallel, distinctly constricted at apex, the latter about three-fourths 

 as wide as the base ; disk rather spar.sely, strongly punctate. Scu- 

 tellum very small, elongate-oval, glabrous. Elytra equal in width 

 to the prothorax and three-fourths longer, parallel, rounded behind 

 in apical third ; stria3 very fine ; intervals minutely, uniseriately 

 punctate and remotely transversely creased. Prosternum flat, sepa-
