[December 
2 setae; base finely margined, apex not; disk about as in 
jsegeri and subcordens. Elytra slightly (barely over y^) 
wider than prothorax; sides subparallel, faintly narrowed 
in basal %; humeri distinct; sides slightly sinuate before 
apices ; latter narrowly subindependently rounded ; striae 
moderately deep but less so than in 2 preceding species, im- 
punctate; intervals moderately convex, 3rd with anterior 
and middle punctures present, posterior missing. Mete- 
pisterna and lower surface as in subcordens , as are also 
tibial and tarsal characters. Length 10.5-11; width be- 
tween 3.5 & 4.0 mm. 
Haiti: holotype $ (M. C. Z. no. 22004) and 1 $ para- 
type from vicinity La Visite, main range La Selle, about 
6,500 ft., Sept. 16-23, 1934; under deeply buried logs in 
cloud forest. 
Named for the headman of the porters whom Dr. Mars- 
ton Bates, Mr. Andre Audant, and I had with us on our 
La Selle trip. 
Colpodes constricticeps n. sp. 
Rather slender, subdepressed ; piceous, lower surface and 
appendages a little more rufescent; moderately shining, 
elytra not duller. Head large, about 4/5 width prothorax; 
eyes small but slightly prominent ; gense convex, prominent, 
head behind them rather strongly constricted (for Col- 
podes) at sides and across occiput; 2 supra-ocular setae 
each side; antennae moderate, 8th joint about opposite base 
prothorax ; mentum tooth rather broad, apex slightly, 
rather broadly emarginate (probably variable). Prothorax 
elongate-cordate, just over 1/10 wider than long; base 
squarely truncate, as wide as apex ; sides arcuate anterior- 
ly, broadly sinuate before right posterior angles; margins 
narrowly explanate, each with usual 2 setse; base and apex 
finely margined ; disk as in jsegeri or subcordens except 
transverse impressions rather better defined and surface 
at extreme base (behind posterior transverse impression) 
irregularly transversely subrugose. Elytra elongate, about 
2/7 wider than prothorax, somewhat depressed (much more 
than in jsegeri and allies), widest about 1/3 from apex; 
sides almost straight and converging in more than anterior 
% ; humeri distinct but narrow and rather rounded,
