Three examples labelled in Brunner’s handwriting 
“ Thyrsocera sp. n.” (Oxford Museum). 
The species is allied to P. cincta, Burm., and may be 
distinguished from it chiefly by its smaller size, shorter 
tegmina, broader pronotum and by the colour of the legs. 
A similar example from Monte Video in the Paris Museum 
stands under the name P. cincta. 
12. Pseudomops afinis, Burm. (SuRINAM, BRAZIL, 
Para.) 
Thyrsocera afinis, Burmeister, l.c. p. 499, n. 4 (1838); 
Brunner, l.c. p. 124, n. 14 (1865). 
Thyrsocera hirticornis, Burmeister, ise. ype 00h ns 0 
(1838); Brunner, lc. p. 124, n. 14 (1865). 
Dr. Taschenberg of Halle having kindly lent me the 
type of P. affinis ‘I have been able to compare it with 
Brunner’s description and find that it agrees admirably 
with that account. The type of P. hirticornis is ap- 
parently in Brunner’s collection and is considered by 
Brunner to be the male of P. affinas. 
13. Pseudomops flavipes, Burm. (BRaAzin, Rio de 
Janeiro.) 
Thyrsocera flavipes Burmeister, l.c. p. 499, n. 5 (1838) ; 
Brunner, |. c. p. 125, n. 16 (1865).
