ANTHOPHILAX LeConte. 



Synoptic Table by Dr. George H. Horn. 



Antennae slender, third joint much longer than fourth. 

 Elytra coarsely punctate scabrous, more or less metallic. 



Elytra greenish blue; legs black viridis $. 



Elytra cupreo-aeneous to blue; legs pale malachitiCUS rf . 



Elytra testaceous, irregularly maculate with piceous spots. 



Surface coarsely sparsely punctate, and with small spaces which are 

 distinctly pubesecent; median line of thorax distmctly impressed. 



attenuatus 

 Antennae stouter, third and fourth joints short, stout and nearly equal in 

 length. 

 Elytra impunctate, dull velvety red, scutellar region and apex black. 



miriiicus c?. 

 Elytra coarsely punctate, scabrous at basal half abruptly smoother at 



apical half; wholly black miriiicus ? . 



Elytra coarsely not closely punctate at basal half, abruptly smootlier at 

 apical half; wholly black teuebrosus ? . 



Thorax convex in teuebrosus, broadly longitudinally sulcate in 

 mirificus $ and % . I suspect that viridis and malachiticus are 

 sexes of one species. — Geo. H. Horn.

The species of Anthophilax seem to be very rare in collections, 

 and I regret that the genus is very poorly represented in my own.
