are yellow. Abdomen black, apical ventral segment 

 bilobed, the lobes being central and with their margins 

 reflexed ; the luminous spot on this segment is Avhitish, 

 smooth and convex. Thorax and elytra dull ochreous, 

 the latter with their apical third smoky-black. Rather 

 near the following species, from which the yelloAV breast 

 will separate it. 



Nicaragua, Chontales. Three specimens, <^?. Coll. 

 Godman and Salvin. 



Phcenolis ustulatus, Che\Tolat (in lit.). 



Niger, prothorace, elytrorumque basi, ochraceis. 



Long. lin. 5 — 6. S . 



Head, antennae and palpi black ; prothorax orange- 

 yellow, inclining to brick-red or vermilion in the centre. 

 Elytra smoky-black, excepting the basal third, the black 

 coloiu' extending indistinctly along the costal ridge to the 

 humeral callus. Legs black, anterior and middle coxas 

 yellow at their base. 



Zapote, Guatemala. Two specimens, apparently males, 

 agree with a type sent to me by Chevi-olat, with the above 

 name, and which is, I think, a female from Mexico. This 

 latter exhibits no trace of a luminous spot, but the anal 

 segments are precisely similar, as well as the pectination 

 of the antennae, to those I think to be males. 



Plicenolis ochraceus, n. sp. 



Ochraceus, capite, antennis, palpis tibiis tarsisque fuscis, 

 abdominis lateribus et apice leviter infuscatis. 



Long. lin. 6—7. ^, ??. 



Dull ochreous-yellow, with the antennje, tibife and tarsi 

 fuscous ; the abdomen in the male (if I am correct in 

 assigning one of the two specimens to that sex) is slightly 

 darker, inclining to pitchy, at the sides and apex, while 

 in the female ? it is rather more infuscate still. The pro- 

 thorax in the former is more acuminate in front, less con- 

 tracted behind than in the female ?, but in neither is any 

 trace of luminous parts observable.
