22 Mr, G. C. Champion on the Heteromerous Coleoptera 



half, and with a dense fringe of short fulvous hairs extending 

 from a little beyond the middle to the apex ; intermediate tibiae 

 elongated, fully twice the length of the tarsi, and bowed inwards 

 from near the base. 



Length 7§-ll, breadth 3^-4^ mm. ( ^ ? .) 



Hah. St. Vincent — Kingstown, Windward side and 

 Leeward side. 



Ten specimens, varying greatly in size. In the large 

 well-developed males the thorax is very convex and 

 more rounded at the sides, and the anterior tibiae are 

 strongly dilated. Allied to U. iRn-icoUis, Champ., from 

 Central America; but differing from it (and from the 

 European forms also) in the non-excavate disc of the 

 thorax in the males, and also in the form of the tibiae in 

 this sex. The fifth ventral segment is foveate in the 

 middle in both sexes. The variation in size and develop- 

 ment of the males is almost as great as in some species 

 of Anisofomidfe. The specimens of this and of the follow- 

 ing species of the genus were found under bark or in 

 rotten wood. 



Uloma antillarum, n. sp. 



Elongate, subparallel, convex, rufo-ferruginous, shining. Head 

 short, closely, finely punctate, and with a very deep transverse 

 groove in front ; the antennas short. Prothorax nearly one-half 

 broader than long, a little narrower in front than at the base, the 

 sides rounded anteriorly and slightly converging behind, the angles 

 obtuse ; sparsely, very fiuely, unequally punctate, with a narrow 

 space down the middle im punctate, and with a shallow transverse 

 groove before the base. Elytra narrowing from about the middle, 

 deeply crenate-striate, the punctures rather coarse, shallow, and 

 somewhat distantly placed, the interstices moderately convex, and 

 with a few exceedingly minute scattered punctures, the humeri a 

 little swollen in front. Fifth ventral segment deeply foveate in 

 the middle before the apex. 



^ . Anterior tibiae broadly and abruptly widened on the inner 

 side from about the basal third, concave beneath, and with a dense 

 fringe of short fulvous hairs extending from a little beyond the 

 middle to the apex ; intermediate tibiae bowed inwards from 

 about the basal third. 



Length 7A-8^, breadth Sf-Sf mm. ( ^ ? .) 



Hah. Grenada — Balthazar, on the Windward side.
