Cucujide. , 
CHEILOPOMA™, noy. gen. 
Maxille membranaceous, not concealed by jugular pieces ; 
mandibles unequally trilobed at the apex (the lobes or teeth 
unequal in length), and tridentate on the inner side and with a 
membranous plate at the base; ligula with its apex bilobed 
and membranaceous ; both labial and maxillary palpi subcylin- 
drical, moderately stout; labium entire. Clypeus very large, 
prominent, triangular, and projecting, almost covering the man- 
dibles. Labrum almost imperceptible, narrow and membrana- 
ceous. Antenne as long as the head and the thorax, and 
moniliform ; all joints nearly equal, except the last and first two ; 
the first is pear-shaped, the second a little longer, and the last 
twice the length of any of the rest. Anterior tarsi tetramerous 
(in the male?), middle tarsi pentamerous, and posterior pro- 
bably also’ pentamerous, but broken off in the only specimen 
received ; first article smallest; the last article in the anterior 
tarsi twice the length of the last article in the middle tarsi ; 
femora and tibie short. Body flat, depressed, and with the 
sides parallel. Head rather broad. Thorax with parallel sides, 
rounded posteriorly. 
Chetlopoma castaneum. 
Dilute castaneum vel testaceo-ferrugineum, 
nitidum, leviter punctatum ; elytris striato- 
punctatis, interstitiis irregulariter punc- 
tatis.

* From xeidos, a lip, and mapa, a lid, in allusion to the large clypeus 
covering the greater part of the mandibles.
