Formam brachypteram nobis ignotam, in Panama lectam D. Champion, Biol. Centr.- 

 Amer., Hem. Het.; II, p. 299, T. XVIII, Figg. 18, 18a, hoc modo descripsit: 



„cf. Brachypterous Form. — Moderately elongate, very sparsely setose, the abdomen, 

 legs, and antennae also sparsely pilose; nigro piceous, the head reddish in front, the prono- 

 tum with an aeneous lustre, shining, the scutellum and clavus opaque; the legs and rostrum 

 testaceous, the posterior femora darker at the apex. Antennae as in P. fusca, but with joints 

 3 — 5 more elongate. Eostrum very long, reaching the intermediate coxae; joint 2 a little lon- 

 ger than 3, extending as far as the front of the anterior coxae. Eyes large. Pronotum as 

 in P. fusca. Corium extending slightly beyond the first abdominal suture, rounded at the 

 apex, the membrane reduced to a narrow strip along its inner apical margin. Anterior tibiae 

 broadly and abruptly widened on the inner side from about the middle to the apex. Length 

 6 V.i, breadth 2 '/4 millim. 



Hab. Panama, Caldera in Chiriqui ("Champion). 



One spécimen. Very like P. fusca, but with the elytra less shining, the rostrum very 

 elongate, the eyes larger and more coarsely faceted, the anterior femora differently formed."
