One specimen. ‘Till the limbs of this species are ex- 
amined, it might be passed over for a very convex small 
Phalacrid or Silphid. The tibiae are a little broader than 
in Micropsephus. 
COCCINELLIDAE. 
Shortly after the conclusion of Gorham’s work on the 
Central American species of this family, in Feb. 1899, 
Captain Casey’s “ Revision of the American Coccinellidae ” 
was issued [Journ. N. York Ent. Soc. vu, pp. 71-169 
(June 1899)]. He added one new genus (Nephaspis) and 
four new species to the Central American list—*Cycloneda 
hondurasica, from Honduras, *Nephaspis gorhami and *N. 
brunnea, and *Zagloba beaumonti, from Panama. The 
descriptions of the few species added here were written before 
I had seen Casey’s paper; but it does not appear that any 
of them were known to him. The true generic position 
of various Coccinellids described in the “ Biologia”’ could 
doubtless be ascertained by a study of Casey’s work; 
but this task is beyond the scope of the present “ Notes,” 
the material examined: consisting mainly of forms left 
unnamed by Gorham. 
CRYPTOGNATHA. 
Cryptognatha, Mulsant, Spec. Col. Trim. sécur. p. 497 
(1850) ; Gorham, Biol. Centr.-Am., Coleopt. vii, pp. 181, 
258 (1894). 
Gorham enumerated eleven species of this genus from 
Central America. Various others are contained in our 
collection, some of which are now described. 
*Cryptognatha rufoterminata, n. sp. 
Hemispherical, very convex, shining, glabrous; head, thorax, 
and apex of the elytra rufous, the rest of the elytra cupreo-aeneous, 
the under surface in part and the legs obscure ferruginous, the meta- 
sternum rufo-piceous. Head and thorax closely, minutely, the 
elytra more sparsely and a little more coarsely, punctate; thorax 
very broad, and with the anterior angles considerably produced,
