by flattening, but as preserved the apex is very nearly as wide as the 
base, the sides little curved, none of the angles plainly shown. Elytra 
long, tapering, coarsely punctatostriate, the punctures separated by 
about their own diameters, interstitial areas not wide nor visibly 
punctured. Length, from front of head to elytral apex, 5.50 mm.; 
of elytron, about 3.60 mm. 
Described from one specimen.

, The generic reference is not certain, being based upon the sternal 
grooves, the size, sculpture, and general form. This species easily 
separates from the preceding by being much more coarsely sculptured. 
Both are represented by undersides only. 
MOoNOCREPIDIUS DUBIOSUS, sp. nov. 
Plate 4, fig. 1. 
Form only moderately elongate. Head finely, sparsely, and in- 
distinctly punctate. Prothorax about one fourth broader than long, 
base and apex subequal, none of the angles very prominent, side 
margin nearly regularly but not strongly arcuate, base broadly 
emarginate in front of the scutellum, sinuate each side, surface not 
well preserved but showing a few fine punctures. Scutellum sub- 
quadrate. Elytra nearly three times the length of the prothoracic 
median line, conjointly rounded at apex, surface finely and not deeply 
striate, the striae with small, slightly elongate punctures, separated 
in each row by approximately their own diameters, interstitial spaces 
flat and not visibly punctured. Underside finely and feebly punctu- 
late or nearly smooth. Length. 4.50 mm.; of elytron, 2.65 mm. 
Described from one specimen, with counterpart.

This specimen is not especially well preserved nor does it offer any 
striking characters. The underside shows the prosternal sutures to 
be double, nearly straight, somewhat excavated anteriorly, the pro- 
sternum rather narrow, the spine acuminate at tip. The hind coxal 
plates are not well defined, but I think they are suddenly dilated 
internally. Both legs and antennae are too poor for description. 
No more suitable generic position can be suggested at present, though
