appendages red-piceous. Head about 2/3 width prothorax, 
formed as in jsegeri, with gense very convex in profile, 
scarcely less prominent than eyes ; 2 supra-ocular setae each 
side; antennae average, apex 8th joint reaching to about 
base prothorax; mentum tooth variable, with apex bluntly 
rounded, subtruncate, or emarginate, channeled along 
middle. Prothorax subcordate, 1/3 or slightly less wider 
than long, base only slightly (1/10-1/7) wider than apex; 
sides strongly, often rather irregularly rounded anteriorly, 
very slightly to moderately sinuate before the slightly 
obtuse, very narrowly rounded of blunted posterior angles ; 
margins rather widely explanate, each with usual 2 setae; 
base finely margined, apex not distinctly so; disk with 
usual impressions, as in jsegeri, impunctate. Elytra as 
in jsegeri except a little more narrowed basally, with sides 
less parallel ; humeri distinct ; striae deep, impunctate ; in- 
tervals convex, 3rd 2-punctate, about % from base and at 
middle, 3rd (posterior) puncture uniformly missing. 
Metepisterna with outer edges only slightly longer than 
anterior; lower surface impunctate. Tibiae not sulcate ex- 
ternally; posterior tarsi sulcate each side above, but inner 
sulcus sometimes indistinct, sulci not approximate, 4th 
joint moderately deeply emarginate but only slightly lobed 
externally; anterior tarsi not distinctly grooved at sides 
in either sex. Length 12-15 ; width 4. 6-5. 5 mm. 
Haiti: holotype $ (M. C. Z. no. 22003) and 17 para-

Colpodes tipoto n. sp. 
Form about average, less broad than in jxgeri and sub- 
cordens and more subparallel; piceous black, lower surface 
and appendages rufescent; moderately shining, elytra not 
duller. Head formed as described for subcordens but rela- 
tively broader, about % width prothorax ; antennae slightly 
shorter ; mentum tooth blunted triangular. Prothorax sub- 
quadrate, 1/4 wider than long; base truncate, about 1/10 
wider than apex; sides less rounded than in preceding 
species, straight or faintly sinuate before obtuse but dis- 
tinct basal angles; margins narrowly explanate, each with
