 Handb. der Ent. iv. 1, p. 253 2 . 



Hub. Mexico 1 2 , Tepansacualco (Salle), Mexico city (Flohr). 



Closely allied to the two preceding; rather smaller and more oblong, the elytra 

 •sprinkled throughout with short blackish streaks, the streaks in some examples con- 

 densing into dusky patches. A good distinguishing character is the perfectly rectangular 

 hind angles of the thorax. The three examples before me appear to be females. 



27. Anomala chevrolati. (Tab. XII. fig. 16.) 



Sat elongata, angusta, flavo-testacea, capite maculaque thoracica mediocri antero-dorsali castaneo-rufis, elytris 

 vitta suturali per scutelli latera usque ad basin ducta nigra, margine posteriore interdum anguste nigra ; 

 capite crebre pnnctato, clypeo postice vix dilatato : tborace angulis posticis obtusis sed distinctis, margine 

 basali integro, disperse punctulato ; elytris punctulato-striatis, utrinque minus distincte tricostatis, costis 

 versus apicem convexis striisque interstitialibus paullo confusis, interstitio suturali lato punctulato, 

 subsuturali multipunctato. Tarsi antici articulo unguiculari subtus haud dentato. 



c? . Tarsi antici ungue majore baud dilatato, dente superiore parum breviore ; pygidium discrete punetatum. 



5 . Tarsi anteriores ungue majore subgequaliter fisso; pygidium densius et aspere punctato-rugulosum. Tibiae 

 antiese semper bidentatse. 



Long. 12 millim. <$ $ • 



Hab. Mexico, Yolos (Salle), Ventanas in Durango (Edge). 



Seven examples. Bears the MS. names A. suturalis and A. suturella in the Salle col- 

 lection ; the former name has been used by Lansberge for a described African species.

Three examples agreeing fairly well with Dr. Horn's description and with a specimen 

 from Arizona received from the late Mr. Morrison.

 thorace lateribus regulariter areuatis, antice angustato, angulis posticis subrectis, margine basali integro, 

 disperse sat fortiter punctato; elytris punctato-striatis, interstitio 2° (subsuturali) multipunctato, 7° 

 sub-biseriatim confuse punctato ; pygidium c? baud profunde discrete punetatum, $ crebrius rugulosum. 

 Tibiae anticae S 2 bidentatse. Tarsi antici articulo unguiculari subtus (intus) acute dentato, ungue 

 majore elongato sat angusto, dente superiore tenui abbreviate 



Long. 10 millim. 



Hab. Honduras, Euatan Island (Gaumer).
