 Euphanistes. 



Lac. Erot. 255 (typ. liydrophiloides, Lac). 



A very anomalous insect ; smooth polished, eyes rather coai'sely 

 granulated, thorax broadest at the base, which is not margined ; 

 elytra with a strong, denticulate, basal margin ; metasternum very 

 short, coxal line complete, apex emarginate for the mesosternum ; 

 prosternum with a raised triangle in the middle, pointed in front 

 and truncate behind ; abdomen short ■ no coxal line ; epipleurse 

 very broad at the base and flat. 



Euphanistes hydrophiloides.

Cyclomorplms. 



{Hope) Lac. Erot. 258 [typ. globosus, Guer.). 



Allied on the one hand by its eyes and polished appearance to 

 Thonius, but gradiially fading off into BracJtysphce^ms. Some of 

 the latter genus (e.g. B. j^^'t'iinax) evidently belong here. The 

 intermediate coxal line is present, and nearly reaches the margin. 



Cyclomorplius Beauvoisii. 



Cyclomorphus Beauvoisii, Lac. Erot. 259. 

 Columbia. 



Very close to Thonius in markings and sculpture, but with a 

 short thorax, and coxal line developed.
