by the strongly punctured thorax in connexion with the raised basal 
portion of the elytra and the flavous antennz and legs. 
Epirrix VENEZUELENSIS, Nl. Sp. 
Elytra flavous ; thorax transversely subquadrate, the basal sulcation 
deep and finely punctured; elytra with the basal portion slightly 
raised, distinctly punctate-striate, the punctures distinct to the apex. 
Length 1 line. 
Head impunctate, the frontal elevations rather obsolete, elongate ; 
antennee more than half the length of the body, entirely flavous, 
the terminal joints gradually thickened ; thorax about one half 
broader than long, the sides straight, slightly narrowed towards the 
base, the basal margin moderately produced at the middle ; the disk 
not visibly punctured, except below the basal sulcation, which latter 
runs parallel with the posterior margin ; elytra with the basal portion 
slightly raised, the punctures very distinct to the apex, each puncture 
surrounded by a piceous ring. 
Colonia Tovar ; two specimens. 
E.. venezuelensis seems closely allied to FH. flavicola, Har., from 
Colombia, but that species is described as having an entirely smooth 
thorax and the elytra without raised basal portion and their punctua- 
tion invisible below the middle ; both species agree, however, in the 
entirely flavous colour. 
Epirrix HIRTULA, Harold. 
Epirrix OpACcIcouuis, Har. 
Both species from Colonia Tovar.

broader than long, the margins nearly straight, the angles thickened, 
the posterior ones oblique, the surface very minutely punctured, with
