as wide ; ninth similar to the eighth hut a little larger ; tenth distinctly wider 

 than long, the eleventh stout, obliquely pointed. Prothorax conic, the sides 

 arcuate, rather longer than wide, the apex more than ^ as wide as the base, 

 the latter ^^ wider than the head ; surface perfectly even. Elytra elongate- 

 oval, gradually and obliquely pointed behind, '^ longer than wide, barely 

 twice as long as the prothorax and }4 wider, narrowed but little from before the 

 middle to the humeri, the humeral plica very feeble ; subhumeral impression 

 almost completely obsolete ; fovese feeble ; subsutural impressions very feeble- 

 and near the base, the suture finely elevated basally. Legs rather long, the 

 thighs moderately strongly clavate, the posterior still less so. Length 1.45 

 mm. ; width 0.5 mm. 



Tlorida (Lake Monroe). 



The single specimen before me is of undetermined sex, but the 

 species will be readily identified by its narrow form, feeble humeral 

 modifications of the elytra, uniform pale coloration, minute clypeal 

 tooth and other characters as mentioned above. 



23. C. elongatiim n. sp. — Elongate and fusiform, polished and subim- 

 punctate, pale rufo-testaceous, the elytral suture finely blackish ; legs and an- 

 tennae paler, rufo-ferruginous ; pubescence long, moderately abundant, pale in 

 color and rather coarse on the elytra. Head rather small, slightly wider than 

 long, subparabolic behind the eyes, which are small and only slightly promi- 

 nent ; clypeal tooth rather well developed, elongate and narrow. Antennse 

 about }4 ^s long as the body, the club not very abrupt, the three outer joints 

 parallel ; second feebly obconic, % longer than wide, subequal to the next 

 two but slightly thicker ; third and fourth subequal and about as long as 

 wide ; fifth and sixth very nearly equal and about I4 longer than wide ; sev- 

 enth only slightly thicker than the sixth, cylindric, with the sides feebly 

 arcuate, }^ longer than wide ; eighth oval, % thicker than the seventh and 

 scarcely longer, exactly intermediate in width between the seventh and ninth, 

 the latter equal in length to the eighth but distinctly thicker, as long as wide, 

 similar to the tenth ; eleventh not thicker, elongate, feebly and obliquely pointed. 

 Prothorax conic, the sides arcuate, not longer than wide, the apex % as widfr 

 as the base, the latter )^ wider than the head ; surface vsdth a coarse, trans- 

 verse and feeble impression near the basal margin. Elytra barely }4 longer 

 than wide, twice as long as the prothorax and about % wider, obliquely 

 rounded and rather acute posteriorly, widest near basal third ; humeral plica., 

 small but elongate and strong, the subhumeral impression distinct but not 

 very large ; outer basal fovea feeble, the inner much larger and strong ; sub- 

 sutural impressions feeble, the suture beaded toward base. Legs rather long, 

 the four anterior femora moderately, the posterior less strongly, clavatc

The unique type is a male, with the apex of the produced por- 

 tion of the copulatory spicule rather broadly truncate. In this-
