Erotylidm from Santo Domingo. 147 



18. Aegitlim davicornis, Linn. Syst. Nat. Ed. x., p. 370 

 {Chrysomda) (17-58) - Goccinclla s^irinamensis, Linn, 

 Cent. Ins., p. 10 (1763) - Aegitlms surinamensis, Lac. 

 Mon. Erot, p. 285 (1842). 



Specimens in my Collection are from Costa Eica, Colum- 

 bia, Ecuador, Amazons, Brazil. 



Distinct by its smooth elytra, which together with the 

 abdomen are testaceous. Linna^us's davicornis was des- 

 cribed from Eolander's specimens, which were again 

 described by De Geer, so that the identity of the two is 

 certain. 



Intermediate coxal line distinct. 



BEACHYSPIICENUS, Lac. Mon. Erot., p. 296 (1842). 

 (Type-?) 



This genus is still a magazine of different forms, but I 

 have not found any good characters whereby to separate 

 them. Sphenoxufi and Typocc2}haliis appear to me good 

 genera. B. irroratvs and B. multiiiotatus are Priotdi, and 

 others are mixed up in the several sections. 



19. Bradiysphoinns zonula, sp. nov. 



B. circulo proximus, sed humeris late nigris, annulo flavo 

 antice posticeque denticulato distinctis. L. c. 3 lin. 



Ecuador (Buckley). 



I cannot separate the single specimen from Chontales 

 now before me from the species characterized above taken 

 in Ecuador by Mr. Buckley. It differs only in that the 

 yellow margin extends up to the shoulder, instead of 

 obliquely across as in Mr. Buckley's specimens. 



20. Bradiysphoinus nigropidus, Lac. Mon. Erot., p. 387 

 (1842). 



Occurs likewise in Venezuela. Coll. Chevrolat.
