PROCAS VERBERATUS. 
Pix Hier: 
Body moderately stout oval. Head small, broken in the single speci- 
men so as to obscure it; eyes small, circular, situated rather low; rostrum 
rather stout, gently arcuate, equal, a little shorter than the head and_pro- 
thorax together, with the antennal scrobes running almost the entire length 
along the middle of the sides, showing that the insertion of the antennze 
must have been very near the tip and the antennal scrobes long. Prothorax 
fully half as high again as long, gently and slightly tapering, the surfac> 
coarsely and not very densely punctate. Elytra no broader at base than 
the prothorax, the dorsal curve over both being uniform, with slender and 
moderately deep strize which are obscurely punctate. Legs moderately 
long, with moderately clavate femora, the fore tibize at least a little arcuate 
and moderately stout, their apex obscured. 
Length, excluding rostrum, 3°75""; rostrum, 1"; elytra, 2°35™™;

NUMITOR (nom. propr.)', 
A genus of Erirhini remarkable for its very stout form, long legs, 
abruptly and strongly clavate femora, and stout first joint of the funicle. 
The rostrum is rather more than usually stout, as long as head and pro- 
thorax together; the antennz are inserted very near the tip of the beak, 
apparently nearer even than in Procas; the scrobes run directly toward the 
eye, but the scape does not quite attain them; the first and second joints of 
the funicle are elongated, the first a little longer than and nearly twice as 
stout as the second. Elytra somewhat of the form of those of Dorytomus. 
The femora appear to be unarmed, but are strongly and abruptly clavate 
in their apical half or two-fifths; the tibize are arcuate at base and slightly 
longer than the prothorax, truncate at tip, and apparently not at all mucronate. 
A single species is known and comes from Florissant. 
‘A relative of Procas.
