from which it differs in its larger size, the longer and 
stouter antenne, with much shorter third joint, the 
broader head, larger eyes, and smoother thorax. In the 
form of the head and antenne it is, however, much more 
closely allied to 9. longicornis : the antenne are shorter 
and more slender than in that insect.

Hab. Grenada—Mount Gay Estate (Leeward side). 
Two examples, apparently belonging to this variable 
species. ‘They are testaceous in colour, with the elytra 
infuscate, except at the sides in front and along the 
suture, the antenne also infuscate, with the basal joints 
testaceous. S. suborbiculatus is widely distributed in 
Central-America, ranging from Northern Mexico to 
Panama.
