Rather broadly oblong-oval, flavo-testaceous throughout, otherwise similar to the pre- 

 ceding, except that the punctures are less coarse and more close -set, the sides of 

 the pronotum more narrowly reflexed and the lateral spicules still more minute 

 and frequently almost invisible ; elytra broader and more broadly rounded be-

32 — Tarsi moderate in length, the posterior distinctly shorter than the tibia; in both 

 sexes 33 



Tarsi more elongate, the posterior fully as long as the tibice in the male and but little 

 shorter in the female ; body oblong-oval, convex, shining, dark rufo-testaceous in 

 color throughout ; pubescence short, even, decumbent, yellowish, and not very 

 dense ; antennse slender, the club moderate, the second and third joints both 

 elongate and longer than the first, which is subglobular ; eyes moderate ; pro- 

 thorax well developed, one-half ( $ ) to three-fifths ( 9 ) wider than long, nearly as 

 wide as the elytra in both sexes, the nodes elongate-oval, flat and centrally punc- 

 tate, the spicules small, the sides behind them prominently rounded and con- 

 vergent ; punctures moderately coarse, deep and dense, the callous spots visible ; 

 elytra nearly similar in the sexes, about three-fifths longer than wide, the punctures 

 moderately coarse and not very close-set. Length 1.9-2.3 mm. ; width 0.75- 

 0.85 mm. Queen Charlotte Islands (Massett) — Mr. Keen hebes, sp. nov. 



33 — Body similar to that of hebes in form, sculpture and vestiture but smaller, with the 

 prothorax more transverse and the antennae less elongate and relatively stouter, 

 the third joint obviously shorter and more slender than the second ; elytra three- 

 fifths ( $ ) to two-thirds ( 9 ) longer than wide, three times as long as the pro- 

 thorax in the latter sex but much shorter relatively in the male, but little wider 

 than the prothorax in either sex. Length 1.7-2.2 mm. ; width 0.72-0. 82 mm. 

 California (Coast regions from Humboldt to San Diego). .lyraticollis, sp. nov. 



Body nearly similar to the two preceding in general form, but differing in the finer and 

 closer punctures of the elytra, and, from lyraticollis, in the more slender and 



U» somewhat more elongate antenna.', the club rather narrow, loose and parallel as 

 usual ; prothorax only moderately transverse, less so than in lyraticollis but 

 otherwise nearly similar, the callous spots large and very distinct ; elytra large, 

 much wider than the prothorax and distinctly less than three times as long, one- 

 half longer than wide (9)- Length 2.25 mm. ; width 0.95 mm. California

I have been unable to identify the 4-denlatits of Mannerheim, from 

 the Island of Sitka, or the Alaskan titberatlosus, punctatissimus and 

 /f-hamatus of Miiklin. The last named must be very closely allied to 

 depressuhts, of the table, but differs somewhat in coloration, and 

 especially in its much smaller size. I fail to identify the European lap- 

 ■bonicus among our species, and the nodulangulus of Zimmerman, is also 

 unrepresented in my cabinet. The 8-dentatus of Miiklin, is a Salcbius 

 without much doubt, and the californicus of Mannerheim, belongs to 

 the genus Hcnoticus. Hutneralis of Kirby, was placed in Tripliyllits
