angles to form shallow, poorly defined foveae, vaguely ex- 
tended anteriorly; middle line distinct, transverse impres- 
sions weak; surface impunctate. Elytra rather narrow, 
about 1/3 wider than prothorax; humeri distinct; sides 
arcuate-parallel at middle, weakly sinuate before more or 
less independently rounded but not produced apices; striae 
rather lightly impressed, impunctate; intervals barely con- 
vex, 3rd 3-punctate, punctures nearly on 3rd (1) and 2nd 
(2 & 3) striae. Metepisterna with outer and anterior mar- 
gins about' equal ; lower surface impunctate. Tibiae not 
sulcate on outer edge ; hind tarsi sulcate above externally, 
at most faintly so internally, 4th joint about rectangularly 
emarginate, not much lobed externally ; front tarsi not dis- 
tinctly sulcate ; $ posterior trochanters more or less 
pointed, about V 2 length femora. Length 10-13; width 
3. 7-4.0 mm. 
Haiti: holotype $ (M. Ck Z. no. 21996) and 47 para- 
types from Mt. La Hotte, 5,000-7,800 ft., Oct. 16-17, 1934; 
1 paratype from Roche Croix, on a spur of La Hotte, 5,000 
ft., Oct. 13 ; under cover on the ground and in rotten logs 
in wet cloud forest. 
I have named this species for my cook and number one 
boy on my La Hotte trip, Marc Jacques; the two following 
are named for my porters. 
Colpodes wolla n. sp. 
Rather elongate, convex, more lightly built than marcus ;

and prothorax moderately shining, elytra rather stongly 
alutaceous. Head 2/3 or slightly more width prothorax; 
eyes rather small but somewhat prominent; genae sub- 
oblique, slightly convex but not very prominent; 2 supra- 
ocular setae each side; antennae average, 9th joint reaching 
about to base prothorax ; mentum tooth pointed or slightly 
blunted. Prothorax subquadrate, as long or slightly longer 
than wide, slightly narrowed posteriorly and anteriorly; 
base slightly wider than apex; sides broadly and evenly 
rounded, sometimes faintly sinuate posteriorly; margins 
narrowly explanate, each with usual 2 setae, the posterior 
about 1/10 before base; posterior angles obtuse, narrowly 
rounded ; base finely margined, apex variably so ; disk very
