EUSPHYBUS SCHWARZI, new species 



Three specimens taken at Key West, Fla., March 8, 13, and 22, 

 1912, by E. A. Schwarz, differ from the other described species in 

 having the pronotum broadly rounded at sides, due to strong de- 

 velopment of the lateral carina from basal angles to before middle 

 and in the more conspicuous tessellate areas of white pubescence. 

 Shapes of the pronotum, antenna, rostral apex, eye, and scrobe are 

 shown in Figure 63 in comparison with rectus (fig. 64) and wulshii 

 (fig. 65). 



Type and two paratypes. — Cat. No. 41368, U.S.N.M. 



EUSPHYRUS ARIZONENSIS Schaeffer 



Musphyrus arizonensis Schaeffer, Trans. Amer. Ent. Soc, 1906, vol. 33, p. 272 



This species was described from the Huachuca Mountains, Ariz. 

 It is not represented in the national collection. 



EUSPHYRUS RECTUS Schaeffer 



Eusphyrus rectus Schaeffek, Trans. Amer. Ent. Soc, 1906, vol. 33, p. 271. 



Twenty-five Texan specimens are tentatively referred to this 

 species with much doubt because of the conspicuous differences in 

 vestiture. Figure 64 is drawn from one of the four specimens col- 

 lected at the type locality, Brownsville. Other localities represented 

 are Columbus, San Diego, Victoria, San Antonio, Beeville, and 

 Devils River, the two latter localities probably representing distinct 

 species.
