rand very acutel}'^ pointed. Prothorax conic, distinctly shorter 

 than wide ; apex f as wide as the base, the latter ^ wider than the 

 head ; surface feeblj', transversely impressed near the basal mar- 

 gin. Elj^tra f longer than wide, twice as long as the prothorax 

 but scarcely f wider, the sides broadlj^, evenly arcuate ; humeral 

 plica rather short but strong, the impression short and deep ; 

 fovese distinct ; subsutural impressions narrow and feeble, the 

 suture very feebly, finely and imperfectly beaded basally, the 

 head not expanded at base. Legs moderate, the femora rather 

 strongly and subequally clavate. Length 1.15 mm.; width 0.5 

 mm. 



Florida (Enterprise) — Mr. Schwarz. The sex of the specimen 

 described above is not determinable. This species though allied 

 in general structure to innocuum and conifer, may be separated 

 at once, not only from them but every other species of the genus, 

 by the peculiar coarse punctuation of the elytra. 



44. C. testaceipes n. sp. — Eather stout, polished and impunctate, black 

 throughout or with a slight piceous tinge; legs and antennae pale, rufo-tes- 

 taceous; pubescence rather abundant, short, coarse, pale and recurved on the 

 elytra. Sead well developed, much wider than long, broadly rounded behind, 

 the eyes unusually large and prominent, extending behind the middle; front 

 distinctly impressed between the antennal tubercles ; clypeus not at all cari- 

 nate, evenly rectilinear at apex. Antennse distinctly longer than the head and 

 prothorax, somewhat slender but with the club strong, subparallel and slightly 

 abrupt; second joint feebly obconic, % longer than wide, much thicker and 

 slightly longer than the next two, only slightly thinner than the first ; next 

 four smooth, equal in width, cylindric; third and fourth equal and as long as 

 wide; fifth just visibly longer; sixth quadrate; seventh slightly rough, cylin- 

 dric, fully }4: wider than the sixth and not as long as wide; eighth fully % 

 wider than the seventh, rounded in nearly apical half, almost as long as wide; 

 ninth and tenth equal, barely ^4 wider than the eighth and but slightly wider 

 than long; eleventh somewhat thicker, as long as the preceding two, pointed. 

 Prothorax small, conic, not quite as long as wide, the sides feebly arcuate; 

 apex about '% ^s wide as the base, the latter scarcely }^ wider than the head; 

 surface distinctly impressed transversely near the basal margin, the impression 

 subinterrupted in the middle as usual. Elytra % longer than wide, more than 

 twice as long as the prothorax and nearly twice as wide, widest at basal ^; 

 sides evenly arcuate, the apex acutely rounded; humeral plica long and strong, 

 the subhumeral impression strong and well developed; fovese distinct; sub- 

 sutural impressions narrow but long, strong and parallel, the suture strongly 

 beaded basally. Legs well developed, the tarsi slender, with the first four 

 joints of the posterior subequal ; anterior femora strongly, the other four feebly, 

 clavate. Length 1.0 mm.; width 0.45 mm.
