Mr, J. S. Baly oh the Phj-topliaga. 195 



Antennae nearly equal to the bod}' in lengtli, moderately robust, 

 filiform, four basal joints shining, the rest opake, second, third, and 

 fourth joints short, gradually increasing in length : thorax subconic, 

 sulx-ylindrical, sides constricted, the constriction being scarcely visible 

 from above, surface smooth and shining, remotely punctured, the punc- 

 tm'es on the sides confused, those on the middle of the disk arranged 

 in two or three longitudinal rows, base impressed with a deep fovea; 

 scutellum elongate-trigonate, truncate ; elytra much broader than the 

 thorax, lateral margin slightly produced at the shoidder, concave below 

 the latter, abo^e convex, slightly flattened on the back, each elytron 

 with ten regular rows of punctures, fidvous, the apical half of the 

 outer limb broadly edged with piceous, beneath shining piceous ; abdo- 

 men edged with obscure fulvous ; hinder thighs shorter than the 

 abdomen, moderately incrassate ; metasternum more swollen than in 

 the preceding species. 



I owe the specimen from which the above description is taken to 

 the kindness of M. Javet, after whom I have named the species. 



Genus Ceiocekis, Fab. 

 Crioceris Sallei. 



C. elongata, subcylindrica, viridi-metallica, subnitida, subtus nitida, pilis 

 adpressis tenuibus obsita, sua o vix micans ; antennis ( basi excepta) 

 nigris; thorace nitido, longitudine latitudini fere pequali, cylindrico, 

 lateribus medio sat constrictis, fortiter transversim sulcato-strigoso, 

 basi fovea parva impresso ; elytris crebre fortiter subrugoso-punctatis, 

 utrisque intra marginem unicarinatis, disco exteriore prope medium 

 fovea magna ovato-rotundata impressis. — Long. 4-4i lin. 



Hab. Oaxaca. Collected by M. Salle. 



Antennae four-fifths of the length of the body, slender, filiform, 

 slightl}' increasing in thickness towards their apex, third and fourth 

 joints short, equal, obconic, four basal joints shining metallic green, 

 the rest black, opake ; elytra parallel, much broader than the thorax, 

 indistinctly impressed transversely below the basilar space (in their 

 punctation they differ entirely from any of the similarly colom-ed known 

 species, their surface somewhat resembling shagi'een) ; legs slender, 

 subelongate, thighs very slightly incrassate, the hinder pair scarcely 

 reaching to the extremity of the elytra in the 7nale, much shorter in 

 the other sex.
