curved, middle and posterior tibia of normal form, rather thick, more 
slender at base, and with small, acute dentation at middle; tarsi ambula- 
torial, cylindrical, and at least two thirds length of tibie. Length 12 mm., 
breadth 4.5 mm. 
Type, a unique in my own collection, which was captured near Prescott, 
Ariz., June 11, 1910, by Mr. J. Aug. Kusche and by him kindly presented 
to me. 
This markedly hairy species belongs with that group of species 
having a trilobed prothorax, and, according to Horn’s latest revision 
of that group,* should come immediately after C. saucius Lec. It 
has, in common with that, the tibia of normal form, the anterior 
tibia with the upper tooth near the middle and the middle and hind 
tibiee each with a small tooth at middle, as well as the straight 
hind angles of the prothorax. It differs, however, from that 
species in being very hairy and subopaque, whereas that is quite 
smooth and shining, in being proportionally broader, in having 
the anterior margin of the clypeus almost transverse, in contrast 
to the well-rounded and almost pointed one of the other, in having 
the clypeal carination not reaching the clypeal margin, but pro- 
jecting forwards free and horn-like, in having the sides of the 
thorax strongly excavated just before the hind angles, and in 
having the hind angles themselves rather long, at least twice the 
length of those in the other. 
Cremastochilus bifoveatus n. sp.—Black, opaque. Head densely punc- 
tured, front flattened, with broad shallow foveze near sides, no defined 
margin anteriorly; clypeus as wide as head, feebly arcuate in front, rounded 
at sides, anterior margin broadly reflexed; submental plate smooth, trans- 
versely oval, pointed behind, flat at bottom, margins strongly reflexed. 
Thorax broader than long, four fifths breadth of elytra, broadest slightly 
behind middle, sides moderately arcuate, anterior angles fairly prominent 
in front, foveate and pubescent within but without transverse impression 
behind, posterior angles triangular, smooth, separated from pronotum in 
front by an oblique impression, and slightly retracted at sides, the outer 
margin forming a decided notch where it meets the sides of the thorax 
in front, disc somewhat flattened, with median longitudinal impression but 
vaguely defined, surface very coarsely punctured, more closely at sides. 
Elytra flat on the disc, very vaguely bicostate, surface coarsely foveate 
punctate. Pygidium with similar punctuation as elytra. Body beneath 
coarsely punctate, more shining. Legs ambulatorial, anterior tibize biden-
