*/2 wider than long; sides briefly but distinctly sinuate be- 
fore minute, somewhat obtuse basal angles; base lobed at 
middle, slightly or (usually) distinctly sinuate each side. 
Elytra with rather fine, entire, impunctate striae ; intervals 
barely convex ; 3rd stria with fine setigerous puncture about 
1/5 from base, 2nd with similar punctures near middle and 
a little before apex. Inner wings reduced as usual. Male 
with front tarsi slender, inconspicuously squammulose; $ 
with 1, $ with 2 setse each side last ventral. Length (to 
apex elytra) 3. 6-4. 6; width 1. 6-2.1 mm. 
Haiti: holotype $ (M. C. Z. no. 22035) and 17 para- 
types, mostly $ $ , from Etang Lachaux, Oct. 26-27 ; taken 
by raking leaves from shady places on the bank into the 
water. 
This species is closely allied to the Cuban insularis Dari. 
(Psyche 41, 1934, p. 120), of which I took 20 additional 
specimens at the type locality (Soledad), Aug. 2-12, 1934, 
but haitianus differs constantly in the brown labrum (testa- 
ceous in insularis) and in having a wider prothorax with 
posterior angles better defined and sides of base sinuate. 
Pentagonica flavipes picipes n. subsp. 
Structurally the same as typical P. flavipes (Lee.) of 
North America and Cuba (we have 33 specimens from 
Soledad, near Cienfuegos) and similarly uniform piceous 
black above, with fine elytral striae, but with legs piceous 
or dark brown instead of testaceous or very pale brown 
and with labrum and base of antennae somewhat darker 
also. The latter, however, are rather variable in true 
flavipes. The difference in color of legs is conspicuous even 
in the field, to the naked eye. 
Greater Antilles except Cuba: Jamaica: holotype $ 
(M. C. Z. no. 22036) from Kingston, Aug. 27 ; 1 paratype 
from Ocho Rios, Aug. 24; 5 paratypes from Port Antonio, 
March, E. A. Wight collector. Haiti : 1, not a type, from 
Miragoane, Oct. 30. Puerto Rico: 1, not a type, from S. T. 
Danforth. 
Galerita montana n. sp. 
Rather stout and convex ; elytra costate ; black or piceous,
