neic species of Endomycici. 441 



cordate, longer and more pointed behind than in discoi- 

 dens with large scattered punctures, the interstices with 

 smaller ones, and the reflexed margin with a row of larger 

 ones; their colour is almost black, with the entire margin 

 and suture narrowly testaceous. Antennas unusually loSo- 

 joints 4— 8 being nearly equal to each other; 6 joints a?e 

 red, the 7tli, 8th and club black. Legs and body beneath 

 pale ferruginous. 



^.7*.— Cayenne. Two specimens, ^ and 2, in my own 

 collection. 



Allied to discoideiis. The $ is the var. a, the $ shows 

 no trace of a fascia. 



Corynomalus coriaceus, n. sp. 

 Ferrugineus, elytris semiopacis subtiliter coriaceis, chaly- 

 beis, antennarum clava nigra. Long. lin. 4— 4i, $. 



Head finely but not very closely punctured ; thorax 

 transverse, twice as broad as long, anterior angles acute, 

 but their apex rounded, sides sinuate, hind angles right, 

 a little deflexed ; surface uneven, the longitudinal sulci, 

 though linear, yet lying in two rather wide impressions, 

 its sides and base margined by a very fine line. Elytra 

 ample, subcordate, very convex, and longitudinally gib- 

 bous ; steel blue, not shining, the margin Aery naiTowly, 

 and apex ferruginous ; there is a tendency to the same 

 colour near the scutellum and suture, and this is more 

 distinct in two examples I have than in the third ; j^unc- 

 turing distinct, but the punctures irregular in outline and 

 very lightly impressed, and at unequal distances from each 

 other, giving a coriaceous appearance to the elytra. An- 

 tennfe of moderate length, entu'ely pale ferruginous with 

 the exception of the club, Avhich is black ; the latter short 

 and with its joints closely articulated. Legs and body 

 clear rusty-red. 



Hah. — New Fribourg, French Guiana.

 Three examples in my own collection fl'om DeyroUe's.
