scales, collected mostly on the spaces between the punctures ; 

 legs and antennas dark violet ; rostrum rather long, with a 

 slightly elevated longitudinal line ; prothorax manifestly 

 longer than broad, considerably narrower in front, the sides 

 rounded, roughly punctured above ; scutellum small, trian- 

 gular ; elytra regularly but not strongly convex, with fine 

 lines of punctures, the apices very slightly divergent ; body 

 beneath glossy black, the sides and base of the femora covered 

 with bright green scales. 



A very distinct species, resembling a slender Otiorhynchus. 



Eustales sejunctus. 



E. oblongus, laete viridi-squamosus, supra lineis abbreviatis nigris 

 denudatis notatus ; rostro carina triangulari instructo ; scutello 

 rotunda to. Long. 6 lin. 



Hob. Brazil. 



Oblong, partially covered with green scales, leaving on 

 the upper surface oblong black glossy lines without scales ; 

 the head with three, the prothorax with five such lines, one 

 on each side running through the eye and continuous with 

 one on the prothorax ; on the elytra the lines are uninter- 

 rupted and irregular ; rostrum with a flattish carina, broader 

 below and gradually running to a fine point between the eyes ; 

 prothorax subcylindrical, flattish above, with two large median 

 impressions ; scutellum roundish ; elytra broadest behind the 

 middle, depressed above, linearly punctate, the punctures 

 much coarser at the base, posteriorly the fifth and seventh 

 interstices raised, apices divaricate. 



This and the following species are remarkable for the 

 naked interrupted spaces on the upper surface. The club of 

 the antennas, as in many others of their allies, is black. 



Eustales interruptus. 



E. angustus, lajte viridi-squamosus, supra partim nigro-denudatus ; 

 rostro in medio triangulariter impresso ; elytris apicem versus 

 paulo ampliatis. Long. 4 lin. 



Hob. Macas. 



Narrowly oblong, partially covered with green scales, a 

 few cobalt-blue, leaving on the upper surface oblong black 

 patches without scales ; rostrum with a triangular median 

 impression, and on each side a short deep line ; prothorax 

 subcylindrical, longer than broad, two strongly marked de- 

 pressions on the disk, and on the sides several coarse punc- 

 tures ; scutellum oblong ; elytra rounded at the shoulders, 

 depressed above, towards the apex slightly expanded, very
