106. Callida tinctula n. sp. 
Small, elytra unusually broad for genus; head and pro- 
thorax brownish rufous; elytra rufescent with dull green 
lustre, brighter laterally; appendages testaceous. Head 
with prominent eyes ; front smooth, except slightly alutace- 
ous anteriorly, with large median! puncture, and with 
slight longitudinal strigulation at sides in front of eyes. 
Prothorax less than a fourth wider than long, subcordate; 
posterior angles right, very minutely rounded ; lateral mar- 
gins moderate ; median impressed line strong, anterior 
transverse impression obsolete, posterior distinct but not 
strong; disk moderately transversely wrinkled, irregularly 
and sparsely punctate near base and apex and beside middle 
line. Elytra rather broad but subparallel; independently 
emarginate-truncate at apex, with outer angle rounded; 
strise moderate, punctulate; intervals barely convex, dull 
and alutaceous; third interval tripunctate. Inner wings 
fully developed. Mesosternum not tuberculate between 
coxse. Lobes of fourth tarsal joints oval, slightly narrowed 
at base. Last ventral of female quadripunctate each side, 
broadly truncate apically, slightly sinuate each side. Length 
5 % mm. 
Holotype 9 (United States National Museum) from Cay- 
amas, Sta. Clara, Cuba, Feb. 2, E. A. Schwarz; unique. 
This species is generally similar to Callida decolor Chd., 
described from Martinique and seen by me from Haiti, and 
will probably prove to have similar male tarsal squammul- 
ation, with small squammules on the first three joints of the 
middle tarsi. It differs from decolor in being smaller, with 
elytra submetallic, and with the prothorax narrow and 
with relatively narrower margins. It is apparently not 
at all close to anything known from Central America.
