592 ON NEW SPECIES OF PHYTOPHAGOUS COLEOPTERA. 
nd an equally narrow transverse band below the middle, extending 
to either margin. 
Hab. Bolivia, Peru. 
Closely allied to some of the varieties of the widely distributed 
H. equinoctialis Linn., but evidently quite distinct, as I have many 
specimens before me which show no variations. The species is 
larger and of more elongate shape, the small flavous spot in front 
of the humeral callus in H. equinoctialis is absent, the dark 
elytral markings are linear and of different shape and entirely 
separated, not confluent, and the antenne are more robust and, 
like the legs, of a dark fulvous colour.
