Eab. Mexico, Cordova, Santecomapan {Salle), Misantla {Edge). 



Five examples. I have adopted Chevrolat's MS. name of the species from the Salle 

 collection. 



Var. valdecostata. Cupreo-aenea (elytris interdum obscure viridi-Eeneis), subtus cum femoribus flavo-testacea, 

 veutro interdum infuscato ; elytrorum costis quatuor convexioribus, striis profundioribus delimitates, inter- 

 spatiis omnibus sequaliter dense confluenter punctulatis.

Eab. Panama, Bugaba, Volcan de Chiriqui (Champion). 



80. Anomala nitescens. (Tab. xill. fig. 14.) 



Sat late ovata, capite et thorace splendide viridi-aeneis, boc limbo laterali flavo clypeoque cupreo-fulvo, elytris 

 rufo-fuscis aenescentibus, corpore subtus pedibusque flavo-testaceis ; capite confluenter, vertice sparsim, 

 punctatis, oculis vix convexis, clypeo lato, postice haud ampliato margineque parum reflexo; tborace 

 (a supra visu) a basi ad apicem angustato, lateribus arcuatis, basi immarginato sed juxta scutellum paullo 

 reflexo, dispersissime punctato ; elytris profunde punctato- striates (punctis confertis transversis), interstitiis 

 angustis apud diseum transversim rugulosis, stria 2 a duplicata postice solum impressa, striis lateralibus 

 plus minusve confusis ; pygidio viridi-asneo, subnitido, undulato-ruguloso, griseo-setoso. Mesosternum 

 inter coxas crasse conicum, porrectum. Tibiae anticae bidentataa, posticas haud suratae. 



c? . Tarsi antici ungue majore versus basin angulatim dilatato, dente superiore haud breviore. 



Long. 12-14 millim. <5 $ . 



Eab. Mexico (Salle). 



I have adopted the MS. name given to this species by Deyrolle in the Salle collection. 

 The lateral margin of the elytra (in the female) is just perceptibly dilated and thickened 

 in the middle. 



81. Anomala ? 



Eab. Guatemala, Zapote (Champion). 



A single example of a species much smaller than A. nitescens, similar in colour and 

 sculpture, but widely different in some points of structure. Its position in the genus 

 is uncertain. 



82. Anomala calonota. (Tab. xill. fig. 15.) 



Elongato-ovata, viridi-pomacea, subaenea, subtus splendide viridi-senea rufo-translucens, thorace limbo laterali 

 rufo ; clypeo subsemicirculari, margine parum reflexo, dense seabroso-punctato, fronte discrete punctata ; 

 thorace a basi ad apicem gradatim angustato medio perparum dilatato, basi immarginato sed juxta 

 scutellum paullo reflexo, toto disperse punctato; elytris punctato-striatis, striis l a et 3 a 4 a que versus 

 apicem sulcatis, interstitiis subsequalibus, 2° latiore biseriatim subconfuse punctato excepto; pygidio 

 discrete transverse punctato-ruguloso, piloso, nitido. Mesosternum sat elongatam, porrectum, acute 

 conicum. Tibiae anticas juxta apicem bidentatas, posticae parum suratae.
