Hah. Guatemala : San Isidro (1600 ft.). 



The single specimen found by Mr. G. C. Champion was 

 recorded, but not named, by Bates in the ' Biol, (^entr.- 

 Americana.' It resembles 0. prcesidii^ Bates, being clothed 

 like it with rather long yellow sette, but it is much darker in 

 colour, the head is flatter, and the legs are rather long and 

 slender, without femoral tooth or dilated tibi». The head is 

 strongly and closely granulated and very flat, without 

 elevation of any kind. 



The finger-like terminal process at the inner edge of the 

 front tibia is absent in the male of 0. prcesidii. Although 

 not found in several species, I believe when present tliis is 

 always distinctive of the male.

Hah. HONDUKAS, MEXICO. 



There are two male specimens in the British Museum, one 

 of them, labelled "Mexico: Sall^ Coll.," having been re- 

 ferred to by Bates. The second^ from Honduras, agrees with 

 it, but is less well-preserved. It is a fairly large species, with 

 the head formed almost as in 0. hiarmatus, fjec, which is 

 much smaller and lighter-coloured. 0. hondurcB is dark, 

 densely sculptured, and clothed above with fine greyish seta3, 

 closely and uniformly disposed and lying close on the elytra. 

 The head is strongly but not very closely punctured, hollowed 

 in the middle, without any trace of a posterior carina, but 

 with a rounded tubercle at each angle o£ the short rounded 

 clypeus.
