separated by their own width. Abdomen coarsely punctured, the 

 last two sutures gradually very wide toward the middle as usual. 

 Length 3.2 mm. ; width 1.3 mm. 



Texas. Cab. LeConte. Represented by the unique type, which 

 is in a rather poor state of preservation, being much rubbed ; it is 

 apparent, however, from broken fragments, that the elytral scales 

 are normally quite distinct, and that there are some scattered scales 

 toward the sides of the pronotum. 



7 Liininobaris denildata n. sp. — Oval, rather depressed, rufo-piceous 

 throughout, the integuments shining, the vestiture consisting of very small 

 sparse and yellowish squamules, only evident toward the sides of the pronotum 

 and elytra, and, on the latter, especially near the apex ; on the under surface 

 they are only distinct toward the abdominal apex. Head minutely, very 

 remotely punctate, the impression strong, the beak rather stout, cylindrical, 

 evenly, distinctly arcuate, not quite as long as the prothorax, minutely, line- 

 arly punctate, more coarsely densely and rugosely so at the sides very near 

 the base ; antennae inserted well beyond the middle, the first funicular joint 

 as long as the next three, the second but slightly more than one-half as long 

 as the first and about as long as the next two, outer joints gradually robust 

 and almost continuous in outline with the club, which is very small, oval, 

 scarcely longer than the preceding three joints together, densely pubescent 

 throughout, and with the basal joint fully one-half the mass. Prothorax but 

 slightly wider than long, the sides parallel, evenly and distinctly arcuate, 

 gradually convergent from apical third, feebly constricted behind the apex, 

 which is fully three-fifths as wide as the base, the latter transverse, broadly 

 bisinuate ; disk with a rather broad impunctate line, narrow or obsolete toward 

 apex, the punctures small but uneven in size and generally very sparse, 

 much smaller near the median line. Scutellum small, subquadrate, glabrous. 

 Elytra subequal in width to the prothorax and barely three-fourths longer, 

 the sides feebly convergent and slightly arcuate, the apex abruptly, some- 

 what narrowly but obtusely rounded ; humeri very feebly tumid ; disk rather 

 coarsely but only moderately deeply striate, the intervals flat, nearly twice as 

 wide as the grooves, each with a single series of punctures which vary greatly 

 in size, but generally deep, somewhat coarse, especially toward base and 

 moderately approximate. Abdomen with the first suture evident and strongly 

 arcuate toward the middle, the first two segments moderately strongly, not 

 densely punctured, narrowly and feebly impressed along the middle. Pro- 

 sternum flat, coarsely punctate, separating the coxae by distinctly more than 

 their own width. Length 3.3 mm. ; width 1.3 mm. 



Florida. 



This species is not at all closely related to any other ; it is repre- 

 sented by a single male. The sixth funicular joint is longer than 

 either the fifth or seventh, and the club is unusually small.
