[December 
Apenes ovalis n. sp. 
Broad, with elytra more oval and more convex than 
usual; shining piceous without pale markings above; ap- 
pendages and elytral epipleurse reddish testaceous. Head 
large, a trifle over % width prothorax; eyes but little 
prominent ; front shining, very faintly alutaceous and 
punctulate, not strigose ; antennse rather short, middle 
joints a little longer than wide. Prothorax broad, 2/5 to 
% wider than long; sides broadly rounded, almost evenly 
rounded into base except for vague lobe just behind pos- 
terior seta each side; base also vaguely lobed; disk mod- 
erately convex, shining, very faintly alutaceous, faintly 
transversely wrinkled near middle. Elytra broadly oval, 
i /2 wider than prothorax ; striae moderate, impunctate ; 
scutellar stria rather short; intervals flat or faintly con- 
vex, polished, 3rd with 2 strong punctures. Metepisterna 
with outer edge about % longer than anterior, shorter than 
in winged species ; inner wings reduced to minute vestiges. 
Male with apical joint labial palpus much less dilated than 
usual, apex scarcely more than % long as inner edge, 
scarcely wider than in $ ; $ with 1, $ with 2 setae each 
side last ventral. Length (to apex elytra) 8. 0-9. 5; width 
3. 4-3. 9 mm. 
Haiti: holotype S (M. C. Z. no. 22034) and 55 paratypes 
from La Visite and vicinity, La Selle Range, 5,000-7,000 
ft., Sept. 16-23 ; in loose leaf mold and under other cover 
in wet cloud forest. 
The wide, oval, convex elytra, and shining, unspotted 
surface give this Apenes a unique appearance which dis- 
tinguishes it easily from the preceding (aptera ) , which is 
the only other species of the genus known to me from the 
West Indies in which the wings have atrophied. 
Eucaems haitianus n. sp. 
Stout, moderately convex; black; head and prothorax 
alutaceous, elytra shining, subiridescent ; antennse with 6 
proximal joints, brownish, 7th more or less bicolored, 4 
distal whitish; palpi, labrum, and legs brown, latter some- 
times more or less testaceous. Head as in insularis Dark, 
with middle antennal joints about 3 times long as wide. 
Prothorax broadly cordate, slightly to distinctly more than
