256 Mr. Martin Jacoby’s List of the Phytophagous 
slightly narrowed between the cox, and distinctly 
punctured. 
Fam. EHUMOLPID A. 
Noponora, Lefévre. 
Nodonota grenadensis, sp. n. 
Piceous below, above metallic green or cupreous, the antenn 
and legs flavous ; thorax transverse, evenly and moderately closely 
punctured ; elytra with single rows of strong punctures, the latter 
widely placed. 
Length, 3-1 line. 
Of oblong shape ; the head remotely and rather finely punc- 
tured, the vertex with a longitudinal groove ; clypeus distinctly 
separated at the sides by oblique grooves, nearly smooth ; labrum 
and palpi fulvous ; antennz extending beyond the middle of the 
elytra in the male, flavous, the terminal joints stained with fus- 
cous at the apex and scarcely thicker than the basal joints, all of 
equal length, with the exception of the second ; thorax strongly 
transverse, the sides much rounded, the base scarcely produced at 
the middle and narrowly margined, the anterior portion somewhat 
strongly deflexed, the disc rather strongly but not closely punc- 
tured, the punctures of equal size and slightly oblong in shape ; 
scutellum not broader than long ; elytra not wider in front than 
the thorax, with a very feeble depression below the base, the punc- 
tuation much stronger than that of the thorax and arranged in 
rather distantly placed rows, which show a tendency to run in 
pairs anteriorly, the humeral callus smooth and prominent ; under- 
side entirely impunctate, piceous, the apex of the abdomen gene- 
rally obscure fulvous ; legs flavous. 
Hab. St. Vincent ; Grenada—Mount Gay Estate, Mt. 
Maitland, and St. George’s (Leeward side), Balthazar 
(Windward side). 
In distinguishing this species from its many very 
closely allied congeners the following characters must be 
taken into account:—The piceous colour of the under- 
side, the flavous antenne and legs, and the strong and 
rather remote punctuation of the elytra. The sexes do 
not differ much; but in the female the antenne are 
shorter, the thorax is less transverse, and the anterior 
tarsi are not widened.
