122 Mr, H. W. Bates on the Longicorn Coleoptera 
rowed behind, as in Myoxinus. As the genus is very imperfectly 
known at present, I add a list of all the described species, in- 
cluding those introduced in the present memoir. 
1. A. leuconotus, Thoms. Classif. p. 10, = sedlatus, Dej. Cat. see, 
Chevrolat. South Brazil. 
2. A. pubicornis, Serville. South Brazil. 
Oreodera pubicornis, Serv. Ann. Soe. Ent. Fr. iv. p. 21. 
AEigomorphus pubicornis, White, Cat. Long, Col. Brit. Mus. 
8, A. centrolineatus, n.sp. Amazons and Venezuela. 
4. A. senilis, n. sp. Amazons. 
5. A. scutellaris, n. sp. Amazons. 
6. A. canescens (Dej. Cat. ?), n. sp.* South Brazil, 
7. A. tuberosus, Germar. 
Lamia tuberosa, Germ. Ins. Sp. nov. p. 477. 
8. A. subsellatus, White. 
Alphus subsellatus, White, Cat. Long. Col. Brit. Mus. p. 375. 
The Aidilis griseofasciata of Serville, included by White in 
this genus, does not belong to it. Its proper position, as shown 
by the length of the basal joint of the antennz and other cha- 
racters, is amongst the Acanthocinite. @ 
1. Alphus centrolineatus, n. sp. 
A, oblongus, modice convexus, fusco-ferrugineus, tomentosus, pilis 
cervinis passim vestitus: thorace fusco bilineato : elytris punctatis, 
punctis setiferis, apice oblique truncatis, apud medium linea abbre- 
viata, suturali, communi, fusca ornatis. Long. 5 lin. d 9. 
Head moderately broad, tomentose. Antenne in both sexes 
half as long again as the body, dull ferruginous, spotted with 
hoary tomentum, pubescent, more densely so beneath than above ;
