abdomen reddish testaceous. Antennse ferruginous ; legs 

 reddish testaceous. 



Length 2'3 mm. 



In size and colour very similar to L. bicolor, Shp), but the 

 head and thorax are broader, the antennse a little longer 

 with the penultimate joints less transverse, the fore-parts are 

 much more obsoletely and sparingly punctured, and the 

 thorax shorter and more strongly constricted in front of 

 the posterior angles. 



Head with a small rounded impression on either side of the 

 fronts finely, obsoletely, and very sparingly punctured, 

 strongly coriaceous. Antennse with the second and third 

 joints of equal length, the fourth and fifth almost monili- 

 form, the sixth to the tenth transverse, gradually increasing 

 in breadth, the penultimate scarcely half as broad again as 

 long. Thorax distinctly transverse, widest about the middle, 

 the sides pretty strongly emarginate before the almost 

 rectangular posterior angles, and gently rounded in front ; 

 disc with fine median raised line throughout, obsoletely 

 impressed on either side ; posterior angles rather broadly and 

 obsoletely impressed ; sculpture strongly coriaceous, with a 

 few fine obsolete scattered punctures. Elytra about half as 

 long again as the thorax and a little narrower, longer than 

 broad, strongly coriaceous, and with a few extremely fine and 

 sparing, scarcely perceptible punctures. Abdomen pitchy- 

 brown, strongly coriaceous, practically impunctate. 



Haiti. Type in my collection.

 Antennie dark, the basal joint pitchy. Legs testaceous, the 

 base of the tibiae more or less pitchy. 



Length 3 mm. 



More elongate than T. argutuSj Shp., but with thorax 

 similarly shaped, broader head, and closely pubescent 

 sericeous abdomen. 



Head with small fovea on the vertex, the front longi- 

 tudinally impressed on either side. Very finely and 

 closely, somewhat obsoletely punctured, finely and sparingly 

 pubescent ; the eyes very large, the temples very small. 

 Antennae elongate, all the joints longer than broad, 

 gradually decreasing in length from the fourth, the tenth 

 only a little longer than broad, the eleventh a little longer 

 than the tenth, the third joint of the maxillary palpi black. 

 Thorax strongly transverse, the sides in front of the middle
