CLASSIFICATION OF THE SUBFAMILY CRYPHALINA, 57 
Ambrosiodmus tachygraphus Zimmermann. 
The type in the Leconte collection, examined by the author, does not agree with 
the description, or at least the species would not be easily recognized from the descrip- 
tion. The front of the prothorax is obtusely rounded, nearly flat, the posterior sur- 
face finely transversely rugose to base, the pésterior lateral area smooth, shining and 
punctured; the elytral punctures are not deep or very distinct, the declivity is moder- 
ately steep, convex, and interspace | faintly retuse, nearly smooth, 3 armed with 
two or three denticles, 4 to 6 roughened with granules, striz not impressed, punctures 
obscure. North Carolina. 
Norte: The specimen with the type, labeled ‘‘specimen 2, Haulover, Florida, 
March 10,”’ is evidently the same as the one described above, under the name lecontei, 
Length, male, 1.95 mm.; body short, stout, light brown; pronotum much broader 
than long, flattened, sides strongly rounded, apical margin faintly retuse, surface. 
shining and very faintly rugose, except toward base which is opaque and with a median 
marginal obtuse elevation; head small, with sides parallel, front flattened, subopaque, 
with median shining space; elytra globular, broadly rounded from base to apex, 
strial punctures fine, and in faint rows from base to anterior area of declivity, posterior 
area somewhat flattened, faintly granulate. Washington, D. C., reared September 30, 
1909, in Betula sp.; H. F. Wilson, collector; Hopk. U.S. No. 8775a. 
Genus THEOBORUS, new genus. 
Antennal funicle 5-jointed, joint 5 broad, 2 not longer than 3 and 
4 together; club broad, with sides equally rounded, anterior and 
posterior faces each with two sutures; eyes small, elliptical, broadly 
emarginate. Type of genus, Theoborus theobromae, new species.

(Pl. IV, fig. 41.) 
Length, female type, 2.1mm.; body moderately short, elliptical, light yellowish 
brown; pronotum scarcely broader than long, sides parallel, anterior margin obtusely 
rounded, apex faintly serrate, rugosities fine. not extending to side margin but extend- 
ing to middle on dorsal area, anterior and lateral areas with a few hairs, posterior area 
faintly punctured and with median shining line, lateral areas smooth, opaque, with- 
out punctures; front flat, alutaceous, with median shining space; elytra with sides 
and declivity clothed with soft yellow hairs, strize not impressed, finely punctured 
in rows, interspaces flat and smooth, faintly punctured, declivity convex, oblique, 
opaque, with apex subacuminately rounded, posterior lateral margin obtuse. Do- 
minica, West Indies, in Theobroma cacao, Mr. Barber, collector. Type, Cat. No. 7637, 
U.S. National Museum. 
Genus TERMINALINUS, new genus. 
Antennal funicle 5-jointed, joint 5 broad, 2 as long as 3, 4, and 5 
together; club broader than long, anterior face with two bisinuate 
sutures, posterior face with one procurved suture; eyes large, coarse, 
elliptical, acutely emarginate. Type of genus, Terminalinus termi- 
naliae, new species.
