from the apex, the apical callosity obscure reddish-brown; 

 underside and legs shining reddish-brown, ii-rorated with 

 cinereous. Head rather closely punctured, clypeus slightly 

 rounded at the sides, the apex strongly elevated and sinuous. 

 Thorax sparsely and finely punctured on the disc, the punctures 

 coarser and closer at the sides and confluent at the anterior 

 angles, the posterior lobe smooth. Elytra with two well marked 

 carinas, the disc with rows of crescent shaped punctures Avhich 

 become confused at the apex, the sides with rows of very fine 

 punctures, suture strongly elevated and acutely produced at 

 the apex. Pygidium closely strigose and sparsely pubescent. 

 Beneath coarsely strigose and with sparse 'brown pubescence 

 at the sides, mesosternal process obtuse and rounded, not 

 divergent; anterior tibiae with two teeth and the apical spine 

 rather obtuse. Length 20 mm.

Gymnetis fabaria, n. sp. 



Brownish lutcous, opaque, with four very small red-brown 

 marginal spots on the elytra, apex of mesosternal process and 

 tarsi pitchy black, shining. Head very finely and obsoletely 

 punctured, clypeus slightly narrowed in front, not rounded, 

 apical margin slightly elevated and sinuous. Thorax impunc- 

 tate, the posterior angles acute. Elytra narrowed behind, 

 impunctate, the disc slightly wrinkled, the carina almost 

 obsolete, suture scarcely elevated, the apical angles obtuse; 

 epimera large with a rather acute shining tubercle. Pygidium 

 strigose. Beneath very coarsely punctured on the mesosternum, 

 Avith sparse pubescence, sides and apex of the abdomen more 

 finely punctured, mesosternal process large, bent down and 

 obtuse ; legs pimctured, and fringed with brownish hairs, 

 •anterior tibiaj without teeth. Length 15 mm. 



Balzar Mountains, Ecuador (Illingworth). 



Apparently belonging to section H of Burmeister, but with 

 the apical angles of elytra not produced. It resembles G. 

 cinerea, G.P., in colour, but in other respects is very distinct 

 from any species with which I am accjuainted.
