Hab. Nauta, Upper Amazons. 



Face trigonate, front, face between the eyes, together with the 

 upper orliit of the latter, nigro-piceous, basal joint of antemite 

 and clypeus piceo-fulvous ; anteunte filiform, about three-fourths 

 the length of the body. Thorax nearly sub-quadrate, sub- 

 cylindrical ; sides deeply constricted in the middle, disc impressed 

 behind the latter with a broad shallow transverse groove, in the 

 centre of which is a single fovea ; a longitudinal space on the 

 middle disc, together with the sides near the anterior angles 

 very finely punctured. Elytra much broader than the thorax, 

 olilong-ovate, convex, slightly flattened along the suture, faintly 

 excavated transversely below the basilar space, the latter in- 

 distinctly thickened ; regularly punctate-striate, the ninth stria 

 entire, the pimctures at the base rather large and deeply 

 impressed, those on the hinder disc very fine and shallow ; 

 interspaces plane, the outer one thickened and sub-costate. 



Nearly allied to L. Dia, the antenna? shorter and the thorax 

 narrower tlian in that species.

Vertex smooth, impunctate, front impressed Avith a distinct 

 fovea, on either side of which are several fine punctures ; orbit 

 of eyes coarsely punctured ; antenna; filiform, about four-fifths 

 the length of the body, pale piceoiis, the second and third joints 

 together with the three upper ones obscure fulvous, the l)asal 

 joint (its apex excepted) shining black. Thorax slightly 

 broader than long ; sides deeply constricted near the middle, the 

 apex of the constriction obtuse, disc transversely sulcate before 

 the base, and impressed in the middle just before the sulcqtion
