LARVAE OF SOME WEST INDIAN BEETLES—BOVING 171 
flat, terminally hooked setae arranged irregularly in the sagittal 
region of raster and contrasting in their size and somewhat darker 
color with the weaker and shorter setae in teges. In all other char- 
acters the five West Indian species of Cnemarachis are alike. 
Genus CLEMORA Saylor 
PLAtTe 19, Ficures 15, 16 
Anterior marginal part of frons with a transverse series of about 
10 long and moderately long setae. Frons with two long setae ap- 
proximate to each frontal suture (“arms of epicranial suture” auct.), 
one seta midway between extremities of the suture, the other between 
this seta and the condyle for the mandible. Epicranium, clypeus, 
and labrum with the same number and arrangement of setae as in 
Cnemarachis. Ocelli, antennae, mandibles, and maxillae as in 
Cnemarachis. 
Epipharynx (fig. 15) with epizygum (/Z) extending to zygum 
(Z); plegmatium (PL) well developed on each side, broadly lanceo- 
late with about 15 somewhat sinuous plegmata; proplegmata absent; 
a crescent-shaped, thin sclerome (SCZ) present, indicating the ante- 
rior limit of the space that in Cnemarachis and many other scarabaeid 
larvae is plaited but here is without plaits and beset with setae from 
chaetoparia (C); zygum (Z) thinly sclerotized, the space behind 
zygum with a curved row of six large and several small sensilla, and 
behind these are two transverse rows of heli (#7); five heli in the 
anterior and two heli in the posterior row; phobae (PH) present; 
many sensilla in front of crepis (CR). Claws (unguli) as in 
Cnemarachis. 
Raster (fig. 16) without septula and without pali. Tegilla (7Z) 
on left and right side united into a continuous patch (teges) of flat, 
curved, terminally hooked setae (7'G); the setae of a medium ir- 
regular group, numbering about 9 to about 15, are much stronger 
than the rest (as in the species Cnemarachis suturalis and Cnemara- 
chis dissim@lis). 
Spiracles as in Cnemarachis. 
LARVA OF THE GENOTYPE CLEMORA SMITHI (ARROW) 
The material on which the following specific description is based 
is in the U. S. National Museum and consists of: 
1. Clemora smithi (Arrow) cast larval skins and reared adult, 
received through the assistance of W. H. Edwards, Jamaica, from 
R. W. Tucker, Barbados, February 10, 1938. 
2. Clemora smithi (Arrow) several larvae taken at base of roots 
of sugarcane, Duncans, Jamaica, collected by W. H. Edwards, 
December 21, 1937.
