Coleoptera of St. Vincent, Grenada, and Grenadines. 253 
does not extend to the suture, but reaches it in the St. 
Vincent specimens. 
Fam. CLYTHRID. 
CoscinoprerA, Lacord. 
Coscinoptera intermedia, sp. 0. 
Hab. St. Vincent—Leeward side. 
Dark neous, the tibiae more or less fulvous, the upper and 
under surfaces clothed with long, white pubescence; thorax closely 
punctured at the sides ; elytra not more strongly punctured than 
the thorax. 
Length, 2 lines. 
Subcylindrical, scarcely narrowed posteriorly ; head very broad, 
geneous, not closely, but distinctly punctured, and covered with 
long, white pubescence ; labrum black, its anterior margin some- 
times fulvous; antenne very short, black, the second and third 
joints (and sometimes the fourth also) fulvous, the fourth and fol- 
lowing joints strongly transverse ; thorax nearly twice as broad as 
long, the sides almost straight, the posterior angles obtuse, but not 
rounded, the surface very closely and finely punctured at the 
sides, more remotely at the middle, with a more or less distinct 
central smooth line, the sides closely covered with long white 
pubescence, the middle nearly glabrous ; scutellum covered with 
white hairs ; elytra similarly punctured to the disc of the thorax 
and also pubescent, the hairs more numerous at the sides than on 
the disc; the underside and legs densely clothed with white pube- 
scence, the femora more or less blackish, the tibie fulvous, the tarsi 
dark. 
I cannot identify this species with any of the described 
members of the genus. ‘There is only one specimen 
before me in which the legs and the antennz are obscure 
dark fulvous; in all the others they are blackish, the 
tibiz excepted. The general colour is distinctly bronze, 
in which the species differs from O. dominicana (Fabr.), 
the latter being also larger and differently sculptured. 
The pubescence in the present species is comparatively 
long: this and the differently sculptured upper surface 
separate C. intermedig from any of the species described 
ee eae The labrum in all the specimens is 
ack.
