656 Coleopterological Notices^ VII. 



Femoral teeth moderate in size, their distal slope oblique, the reentrant 

 angle rounded. 

 Femora stout and more strongly inflated ; prothorax more arcuate at the 

 sides and usually distinctly narrowed at base, with the sublateral vittse 

 of paler scales more evident ; elytral vestiture variegated, with a trans- 

 verse pale band near apical third generally more evident as in nasicus. 



confusor Ham. 

 Femora less stout and less strongly inflated, the prothorax never nar- 

 rowed at base, with the sublateral pale vittse less evident except occa- 

 sionally toward base. 

 The femora more properly swollen beneath, with a small erect denticle 

 at the summit of the swelling ; tibise thick ; body very short and 

 thick, with widely exposed humeri ; basal joint of the antennal 



club shorter, evenly obconic Immeralis n. sp. 



The femora normally toothed beneath, with the tibise less thick ; body 



narrower and more elongate-oval, with less prominent humeri ; 



basal joint of antennal club longer, generally subpedunculate 



toward base. 



Vestiture less dense, the scales somewhat separated, not entirely 



concealing the blackish surface of the elytra uniformis Lee. 



Vestiture dense, concealing the surface of the elytra ; first joint of 

 the antennal club less evidently prolonged or pedunculate at 

 base. 

 Scales of the strial punctures short and broad ; body very small. 



nanulus n. sp. 

 Scales of the strial punctures long and narrow. 



Beak in the male very short, ^ as long as the body, the an- 

 tennae shorter and thicker, the scape attached beyond the 



middle occidentis n. sp. 



Beak in the male nearly as long as the elytra, the antenna; 

 longer and more slender, the scape attached distinctly behind 

 the middle ; body shorter and thicker... lindulatus n. sp. 

 Femoral teeth large and very conspicuous, their distal slope almost perpen- 

 dicular, the reentrant angle right and sharply defined. 

 Prothorax widest at the middle, more or less distinctly and arcuately nar-. 

 rowed thence to the base ; vestiture of the elytra distinctly variegated 

 in wavy transverse lines of pale luteous and dark brown.. strictus n. sp. 

 Prothorax not narrower at base; elytral vestiture much less variegated, 

 the humeri decidedly more prominent; legs long, the femoral teeth ex- 

 tremely large longipes n. sp. 



Beak in the female short, not as long as the elytra, the sexual differences be- 

 coming almost inappreciable except probably in sulcatulus; femoral teeth 

 as in uniformis. 

 Body narrow, elongate-oval and much smaller in size, the elytral striae 

 coarse, about }4 as wide as the intervals; beak more slender. 



sulcatulus n. sp.
