248 Mr. G. C. Champion on 



antennae very slender, moderately long, joint 1 1 barely the length of 



9 and 10 united. Prothorax narrow, longer than broad, coidate, 

 widened at the base, sparsely, finely punctate. Elytra moderately 

 elongate, twice as broad as the prothorax, gradually widened to the 

 middle, acuminate posteriorly; shallowly, minutely striato-punc- 

 tate, smooth at the apex, the interstices flat, 3 and 5 with four or five 

 widely scattered conspicuous setigerous impressions, 7 and 9 also 

 with two or three similar impressions towards the tip. 



Length 5J, breadth If mm. (? ?) 



Hab. Amazons, Santarem {H. W. Bates). 



One specimen, imperfect. A very narrow, testaceous 

 insect approaching S. vageguttata, Pic, with the elytra 

 somewhat similarly maculate ; the head large, the eyes small, 

 the antennae unusually slender, and with a feebly developed 

 apical joint, the prothorax quite narrow, punctulate, and 

 without sulcus in front, the seriate elytral punctures very 

 fine and shallow. The prothorax and elytra are differently 

 shaped from those of ;S. paraensis.

Antennal joint 11 in o as long as 7-10, in $ as long as 8-10, 

 united. 



Hab. Brazil {coll. Pic : type), Minas Geraes {3Ius. 

 Brit.). 



Three examples in the Museum, two of which are from 

 Minas Geraes, are doubtless referable to this species. A 

 narrow, elongate insect, 8|— 9 mm. in length (Pic gives 



10 mm.), rufo-testaceous in colour, the elytra flavous, with 

 the numerous scattered setigerous impressions along the 

 alternate interstices each placed in a sharply-dehned, 

 subquadrate, blackish or fuscous spot, those on the first 

 (sutural) interstice confined to the apical half. The eyes 

 are large and somewhat narrowly separated, the space 

 between them depressed down the middle.
