A very variable species, distinguished from the preceding only by its scabrous head 

 and thorax and longer pubescence. The varieties did not occur mixed together ; the 

 type and a were very abundant near Pt. Porphyry : and y are found along the en- 

 tire coast of the lake. 



'8 A. granularis. — Subelongatus, convexus, niger breviter albo-pubescens ; capite 

 thoraceque dense minus subtiliter granulosis, illo basi subemarginato, angulis acutis, 

 linea longitudinali tenui la;vi ; hoc capite non angustiore, latitudine breviore, obovato 

 basi truncata, obsolete marginata ; elytris parallelis dense minus subtiliter punctatis, 

 apice rufescente, antennis tibiis tarsisque testaceis. Long. "IS. 



Variat, a capite thoraceque fuscis, elytris testaceis fascia lata ad medium nigra.

 triangular! basi emarginato, angulis acutis, minus dense punctato, linea longitudinali 

 Isevi, thorace capite non angustiore, latitudine breviore, obovato, obsolete canaliculate,

^^ M. pectoralis. — Augusta, nigra dense pubescens, thorace latitudine sesqui bre- 

 viore, lateribus rectis, macula parva flava utrinque versus apicem, elytris postice paulo 

 attenuatis macula magna basali ad suturam fere extendente, sutura margineque pone 

 medium anguste flavis, abdominis segmento singulo flavo-raarginato, antennis pedibus

-' I have found it necessary to divide this genus, and therefore give the characters of 

 my two groups. 



ANTHOBATES. 



Tarsi anteriores articulo 3'o subcalceato, emarginato que ; 4to minuto vix conspicuo. 



Ungues simplices, basi dilatati. Abdomen conicum, stylo anali nullo : coxis anticis 

 permagnis, conicis, prosternum obtegentibus. This genus contains Anaspis 3-fasciata 

 Mels. P. Ac. 2, 313, and two other similarly colored species. 



ANASPIS. 



Tarsi anteriores articulis decrescentibus, 4to perbrevi, bilobato. Ungues basi late vix 

 dentati. Abdomen et coxaj ut supra. 



22 A. filiformis. — Linearis, rufo-testacea, dense flavo-pubescens, thorace capite pa- 

 rum latiore, latitudine sesqui breviore, angulis posticis rectis, elytris subtilissime trans- 

 versim rugosis, abdomine fusco, antennis nigris, basi testaceis. Long. '1.
