128 TERTIARY RHYNCHOPHOROUS COLEOPTERA. 
ably broader at base than the thorax, with the same sculpturing as in the 
preceding species, with which I had at first associated it, but from which it 
seemed best to separate it on account of the relatively shorter prothorax 
and snout. 
Length, excluding restrum, 2°8™"; rostrum, 0°7""; height of body, 
15"; width at base of prothorax, 1-1"; at middle of elytra, 1-6". 
Florissant, Colorado. Seven specimens, Nos. 475, 1222, 2148, 3322, 
5386, 5655, 8624 and 9104. 
CRYPTORHYNCHUS ANNOSUS. 
Psat, Piss 10): 
Cryptorhynchus annosus Scudd., Bull. U. 8S. Geol. Geogr. Sury. Terr., 11, 86-87 (1876) ; 
Tert. Ins. N. A., 471, Pl. vin, Fig. 3 (1890). 
Better specimens of what appear to be this species, though coming from 
different localities from the type, show that the body is of a compact elon- 
gate oval form, the head very short, apparently smooth or only finely 
punctate, with a moderate-sized circular eye, the rostrum completely con- 
cealed on a side view. ‘The thorax is nearly half as high again as long, 
uniformly and profusely punctate, as described. The elytra are no broader 
at base than the thorax, giving a gently uniform arcuation to the dorsal 
curve, long, narrow, gently tapering to an acuminate apex. 
Length of body, 3:2"; elytra, 2:2™"; height, 1-4™™. 
Roan mountains, western Colorado, from the richest beds at top of 
bluf overhanging head of East Salt creek. One specimen, No. 947, U.S. 
Geological Survey. White river, Colorado, from the lowest shales next the 
bed of the river, about 3 miles fromthe Utah border. One specimen, No.

oming. : 
Tribe CEUTHORHYNCHINI. 
This tribe of Curculionine: is very similarly represented in the older 
European and American Tertiaries; for in America we have a single 
species of Coeliodes and 5 of Ceuthorhynechus, all from Florissant, ex- 
cepting one species of the latter genus from the Roan mountains; while in
