110 Mr. G. ©. Champion’s Notes on 
anterior angles rounded, the hind angles subacute, the basal foveae 
small, but distinct. Scutellum strongly transverse, somewhat 
tumid on each side. Elytra moderately long, narrowed towards 
the apex, without trace of striae. Tibiae gradually widened out- 
wards, the anterior pair bowed at the apex. Tarsi with joints 
1-3 moderately stout. 
Length 4-4} mm. 
Hab. GuaTEMALA, El Tumbador, Pacific slope (Champion). 
Four examples, found in Nov. 1880. This insect differs 
from all its allies in having joints 7 and 8 of the antennae 
intermediate in width between those preceding and the 
club, and in the complete obliteration of the elytral striae, 
the entire upper surface being densely, finely, confusedly 
punctate. 
*Hapalips lanuginosus, n. sp. 
Moderately elongate, rather broad, obscure ferruginous, the 
eyes black; alutaceous, feebly shining, thickly clothed with long 
decumbent hairs, the entire surface closely, finely punctate, the 
elytra with indications of faint striae. Head short, the oblique 
line on each side of the epistoma just traceable, the eyes moderately 
large; antennae with joints 4-8 subequal in length, the club abrupt. 
Thorax feebly margined at the sides, transversely subquadrate, the 
angles somewhat obtuse, the anterior ones almost in line with the 
apical margin. Elytra much wider than the thorax, moderately 
long, subparallel in their basal half. Tibiae gradually widened 
outwards. 
Length 44-44 mm. 
Hab. Mexico, Guajuco in Nuevo Leon (Dr. Palmer). 
Six specimens, mostly in very dirty condition. A 
comparatively broad, moderately elongate form, thickly 
clothed with long hairs; the thorax strongly transverse; 
the elytra much wider than the thorax, confusedly 
punctured, the striae so faint as to be scarcely visible 
till the insect is viewed from the side. H. lanuginosus has 
the general facies of a very large elongate Cryptophagus. 
H. delauneyi, Grouv., from the island of Guadeloupe, is 
described as having similarly long hairs. 
*Hapalups mexicanus.
