268 Mr. Martin Jacoby’s List of the Phytophagous 
slightly and gradually thickened, the apical one more elongate than 
those preceding ; thorax transversely subquadrate, the sides per- 
fectly straight, the anterior angles oblique, forming a slight tooth 
posteriorly, the surface microscopicilly punctured ; elytra wider 
at the base than the thorax, with rows of fine, regularly placed 
punctures, which become indistinct towards the apex ; underside 
and legs testaceous, the posterior femora slightly darker ; posterior 
tibiz straight ; the first joint of the posterior tarsi as long as the 
following joints together ; prosternum narrow, constricted between 
the coxee. 
Hab. St. Vincent (Leeward side) ; Grenada—Mount 
Gay Estate (Leeward side), Balthazar and Lake Antoine 
Kstate (Windward side). 
This Aphthona seems to be closely allied to A. fulvi- 
pennis, Jac., from Guatemala; but differs from it in the 
nearly obsolete frontal tubercles and the indistinetly 
punctured apex of the elytra. The punctate-striate 
elytra will help to distinguish the species from most of its 
allies. 
Lonaitarsus, Latr. 
Longitarsus hornt, sp. n. 
Apterous, strongly convex, fulvous, the intermediate joints of 
the antenne black; thorax subquadrate, impunctate; elytra 
extremely minutely and closely punctured. 
Length, + line. 
Head impunctate, the clypeus triangularly raised ; antenn 
extending to the middle of the elytra, the basal four and the apical 
three joints flavous, the others black, joints 2-4 short, equal, the 
terminal joints slightly thickened; thorax scarcely broader than 
long, convex, and subcylindrical, the disc impunctate and shining, 
the lateral margins straight, the anterior angles thickened, very 
slightly oblique; elytra strongly convex and ovate, pointed at the 
apex, dark fulvous, closely and scarcely perceptibly punctured ; 
underside and legs pale fulvous or flavous, the metatarsus of the 
posterior legs one-third the length of the tibiz. 
Hab. St. Vincent—Leeward side; Grenada—St. 
John’s River and Mount Gay HEstate (Leeward side), 
Balthazar (Windward side). 
A very small species, resembling in its ovate shape LD.
