268 Rev. H. Clark’s Motes on the 
13. S. scutellaris, n. sp. 
Elongata, parallela, depressa, nigra, flavo-ornata: caput ad 
frontem depressum, flavum, labro et macula media insulari 
ad basin nigris; thorax transversus, margine basali ad medium 
emarginato; latera parallela sunt, vix sinuata vel approxi- 
mantia, sed ad angulos anticos breviter rotundata; thorax 
undique versus latera longitudinaliter quasi excavatus est; 
nigro-fuscus, latera laté et margo anterior tenue flavescunt ; 
scutellum subcordatum, nigro-fuscum ; elytra parallela, plana, 
nigro-fusca; fascia lata media et ad humeros (apud margi- 
nes), et versus apicem (sed tenuiter, et vix apicem ipsum 
attingens) sese laté extendit; fascia flava, margo autem 
undique suturalis fusco adumbratur ; antenne satis robuste, 
nigree ; pedes et corpus subtus omnino nigri apparent. 
Long. corp. lin. 3; lat. lin. 1. 
S. scutellaris is not unlike in size and form S. azillaris of 
Guérin (Cuv. Regne An. 304), from Cayenne; it will be seen, 
however, to be somewhat more robust; the thorax also is dif- 
ferent in form, the margins in Guérin’s species being sub-con- 
tracted towards the apex, not parallel as in the species before 
us; the pattern also is obviously different; any black variety 
of S. scudellaris (should such exist) may, I believe, easily be 
separated by the above differences from the ordinary type of 
S. axillaris. 
A single specimen is in my Collection, received by the Marquis 
La Ferté from Venezuela. 
14. 5S. apicaiis, n. sp. 
Elongata, parallela, sed satis robusta, pube flava et sparsa 
vestita, nigro-picea: caput nigrum, labro flavo; thoraz latus, 
ad Jatera rotundatus, ad discum medium depressus, ita 
ut transvers€ excavatus apparet; rufo-flavus, ad medium 
fusco-niger; scuéellum triangulare, nigrum ; elytra parallela, 
rufo-fusca, crebre punctata, ad latera pube flava rarius 
vestita ; apud apicem undique macula minuta apparet, flava, 
insulata ; antenne robuste, nigree: corpus subtus nigro- 
fuscum ; pedes rufo-flavi, nigro-adumbrati.

At first sight this species appears to be a @ of S. antennalis 
(ante, p. 267); it is, however, quite distinct, not only in coloration 
(the legs being flavous instead of piceous, the elytra being with- 
out any marginal flavous marking, and the colour of the elytra
