5. Loxandrus reflexus, n. sp.—Black, very shining, with irides- 
cent reflection. Prothorax wider than long, feebly emarginate at apex, 
equally feebly rounded at base, sides and hind angles rounded ; side margin 
reflexed, narrow in front, becoming much, wider behind, so as to extend 
at the base to the basal impressions, which are linear and deep ; dorsal line 
very fine, transverse impressions obsolete. Elytra not wider than the pro- 
thorax, strive finely punctured in front, deeper and not punctured behind, 
antennee, palpiand tarsi piceous-brown. Length 10-183 mm.; .40-.50 inch. 
Tampa, not rare. This fine species has much resemblance 
to LL. saphyrinus, which occurs in Louisiana; but on com- 
parison, the iridescent reflection is less vivid, the prothorax 
is less rounded on the sides, the broad part of the reflexed 
side margin towards the base is much better defined, and 
finally the elytral striz are much more finely punctured from 
the base to the middle. . 
6. Loxandrus calathimnus, n. sp.—Elongate-oval, black, very 
shining, slightly iridescent ; tarsi and antenn piceous, the latter with 
joints 1-3d, and palpi dark ferruginous. Prothorax wider than long, much 
narrower in front than behind, broadly rounded on the sides, which are 
broadly but not strongly explanate towards the base; hind angles dis- 
tinctly rounded at tip, basal impressions linear, as usual deep. Elytra with 
the strie finely but distinctly punctured. Length 8.8-10 mm.; .35-.40 inch. 
Tampa, Florida; not common. 
7. Loxandrus floridanus, n. sp.—Black, very shining, irides- 
cent ; antennz and legs piceous or blackish, base of the former, palpi and 
tarsi ferruginous. Prothorax wider than long, scarcely narrower in front 
than at base, sides rounded, broadly but slightly explanate towards the 
base ; hind angles obtuse and more rounded at the tip than in LZ. calathinus,
