latiora, fortiter seriatim punctata, punctis approximatis ; pedes 

 albo-pilosi; corpus infra dense albo-squamosum. Long. 8"^"'. 



Bal). Barbacena. 



This species is somewhat doubtfully referred to Eustales^ but 

 without anv spécial affinity to any of its members. 



Entyus dolosus nov. sp. 



E. ovatus, squamis griseis fuscisque variegatus, setulisque nigris 

 adspersis; oculi ovati; rosti'um dimidio basali dense griseo-squarao- 

 sum,dimidio apicali depresso,castaneo, squamis albis parce indutum; 

 antennae ferrugineae; clava majuscula pubescens; prothorax trans- 

 versus, lobis ocularibus haud prominentibus, dorso in medio fusco- 

 vittatus; scutellura subtransversum, apice late rotundatum, albido 

 squamosum; elytra striato-punctata, punctis oblongis, striis squa- 

 mosis, griseo-maculata fusco-varia, prsesertim macula magna 

 submediana et ad suturam interrupta ; corpus infra pedesque dense 

 griseo-squamosi. Long. 5m"'. 



Hab, Therezopolis. 



Judging from the description this species must be allied to 

 E. albicinctîts Gyll., but, inter alia^ there is no trace of the 

 metallic scales ascribed to that species, nor is there any mention 

 made of the différence between the upper and lower portions of the 

 rostrum. 



Miostictus nov. gen. 



Rostrum angustulum ; scrobes infra oculos desinentes. Antennae 

 subapicales; scapus modice elongatus. Abdomen sutura prima 

 arcuata; casteris fere Mt'm Entyo. 



Scarcely différent in technical characters from Entyî(,s,\mi quite 

 différent in faciès. The scrobes terminate beneath in a smooth 

 broad surface which can hardly be said to form part of the serobe 

 itself. Lacordaire places Entyus in his 'Strangaliodides' not seeing 

 its place elsewhere. 



Miostictus Volxemi nov. sp. 



M. oblongo-ovatus, fusco-niger, squamulis viridi-metallicis 

 omnino confertim indutis, elytris maculis parvis fuscis irroratis; 

 rostrum caput longius, basi cylindricum, apice dilatatum; antennae 

 testacese, scapus ad médium oculi attingens; funiculus articulo 

 secundo elongato, ultimo oblongo-triangulari; clava distincta 

 elliptica; prothorax transversus, utrinque rotundatus, in medio 

 fusco-vittatus, lobis ocularibus obsoletis, vibrissse elongatae; scu- 

 tellum oblongo-triangulare ; elytra substriato-punctata, punctis 

 distinctis, interstitiis vix convexis; pedes médiocres, subtestacei, 

 minus squamosi; corpus infra tenuiter squamosum. Long. 6"'"'. 



Eab. Therezopolis.
