sid 



e. 



Four specimen?. Allied to A. gihhicollis and A. alhl- 

 cinctus, La Ferte, and A. clavicornis, Champ., but 

 differing from all these in its finely scabrous head and 

 thorax, and in having an additional fascia on the elytra. 

 The pubescence is sparse and easily abraded. The post- 

 median fascia extends obliquely upwards and the ante- 

 median one slightly downwards, but they do not nearly 

 reach the suture. On bushes in open places (Smith).

Hah. St. Vincent; Grenada; Grenadines — Mustique 1. 



Found in abundance by Mr. Smith in various parts of 

 St. Vincent and Grenada, and also sparingly at Mustique 

 Island. Recorded by La Ferte from St. Thomas, and by 

 Fleutiaux and Salic from Guadeloupe. I have also seen 

 it from Trinidad. The markings are frequently indis- 

 tinct or partly obliterated. In fresh examples the elytra 

 are clothed with scattered, long, erect hairs. Shaken 

 from heaps of decaying weeds in cacao-orchards, etc. 

 (Smith).
