31. Ommata cegrota, Bates. 

 Odontocera agrota, Bates, Trans. Ent. Soc. 1872, p. 233. 



Chontales, Nicaragua. 



I described this species as an Odontocera^ following Lacor- 

 daire's definition of the genus ; but the closely punctured and 

 non-vitreous elytra bring it within the genus Ommata^ ac- 

 cording to the classification here adopted.

0. robustior, pallide flava ; capita, elytris, tibiis, tarsis femoribusque 

 supra nigris, fronte flava ; antennis filiformibus, nigris, articulis 

 (30-10""" basi pallidis ; thorace lateribus paulo rotundatis, margine 

 antico crasso, reticulato-punctato opaco ; elytris subintegris re- 

 ticiilato-punctatis, apice oblique truncatis angulo exteriore longe 

 spiuoso ; metasterno late nigro-fasciato ; pedibus robustis, femori- 

 bus elongato-clavatis. Long. 4i lin. S •
