not more emarginate than usual at middle ; from punctiven- 
tris, in having shorter antennae. A comparison of speci-

dentipes and C. addita, the only previously described West 
Indian species of its group, cubx is distinguished at once by 
its smaller size and more extensively punctate lower surface.
