collected by the late Mr. P. Bouchard at Sta. Marta. 291 
distinguished by the greater length of its hind legs, and globular 
prothorax ; Odontocera by the globular prothorax but shorter 
posterior legs—this excludes O. gracilis of Klug and its allies, 
which Serville has formed into a ‘* subdivision ;” and Acyphoderes 
by its flattish irregular prothorax, and its disk marked with three 
elevated ridges—this excludes 4. crinitus, Klug. Our collections 
contain numerous forms which it will be necessary to separate, 
and this has been done already to a certain extent by M. J. 
Thomson. The present species resembles Odontocera fasciata, 
Oliv., in its banded prothorax.
