impressions along their apical half, and 9 usually with one or two 

 impressions near the tip. 



Length 4|-6J, breadth 21-2^ mm. (cJ$.) 



Hab. Amazons, Ega, Santarem [type] {H. W. Bates). 



Seven examples, including three males with the aedeagus 

 partly exposed. This insect is of about the same size and 

 shape as >S. viridicincta (No. 96), differing from it in having 

 uniformly aeneo-piceous elytra, with the setigerous impres- 

 sions on the disc reduced to three or four on the apical 

 half of the third interstice, shorter and stouter antennae, 

 with the terminal joint not much longer than 9 and 10 

 united in (^, and an obsoletely canaliculate prothorax. 



58. Statira caliensis, n. sp. 



Moderately elongate, depressed, shining; aeneo-piceous or rufo- 

 piceous with an aeneous lustre; the elytra with a few long, erect, 

 bristly hairs. Head sparsely, very minutely punctate, transversely 

 depressed between the eyes, the latter large and well separated ; 

 antennae long, rather stout, joint 11 in (^ as long as 7-10, in $ the 

 length of 8-10, united. Prothorax in ^ as broad as, in $ broader 

 than, the head, not so long as wide, subcordate, strongly constricted 

 before the base, the basal margin prominent and laterally projecting ; 

 rather sparsely, minutely punctate. Elytra moderately long, at 

 the middle twice as broad as the prothorax, gradually widened in 

 their basal half; closely, finely crenato-striate, the interstices be- 

 coming convex towards the sides and apex, 3 and 5 with scattered 

 conspicuous setigerous impressions along their entire length, 7 also 

 with one, and 9 with two or three, near the apex. Legs rather 

 stout. 



Length 8iV-9> breadth 2|-3 mm. ((J$.) 



Hab. W. Colombia, Cali (Rosenberg). 



One pair. Near S. lateralis, Makl. (No. 71), as here 

 understood but aeneo-piceous in colour, the antennae 

 stouter, and the elytra with a scattered row of setigerous 

 impressions along the interstices 3 and 5 from the base to 

 the apex. 



59. Statira caeruleotincta, n. sp. 



Elongate, somewhat robust, moderately sinning; castaneous, the 

 elytra with a translucent bluish lustre on the disc, the colour changing 

 to brassy towards the sides and ajsex ; the elytra with a few bristly 

 hairs. Head nearly as broad as tiic prothorax, sparsely, minutely
