West Indian Dryopidze 
71 
Chantilly Estate (windward side), Grenada, whence came 
at least one of the types of P. smithi. Mr. Blair writes that 
the hind tarsus of the $ has two dilated and lobed joints, like 
the front and middle tarsi. 
Psephenops maculicollis n. sp. (PI. Ill, fig. 1) 
Not West Indian, but described here because it is the 
only typical Psephenops I myself have had for comparison 
with the new West Indian species. 
Male only. Psephenus-like, rather depressed ; brown, 
head black ; pronotum dull reddish testaceous, dusky across 
base, with large, round, shining, piceous mark at middle 
from apex to about 2/5 from base and extending in a fine 
line on carina nearly to base; each elytron with a short 
testaceous fascia from near humerus obliquely back and 
inward; dorsal surface with fine, short, close pubescence, 
relatively sparse on pronotum ; head, middle of pronotum, 
and elytra especially near base, decreasingly distinctly, 
finely, and closely punctate ; lower surface dark gray, 
appendages brown. Head about 4/7 width prothorax; eyes 
prominent; front transversely ridged between upper parts 
of eyes; clypeus broad and short; labrum much narrower; 
antennae short, reaching to about basal angles of prothorax, 
2 basal joints somewhat enlarged, 2nd slightly shorter than 
1st or 3rd, outer joints progressively shorter to subapical 
(wider than long), apical slightly longer. Prothorax not 
quite 1% times wide as long, much narrowed anteriorly ; sides 
straight anteriorly, strongly rounded before basal angles; 
latter right; anterior angles very obtusely rounded; base 
lobed at middle and emarginate at sides ; apex slightly arcu- 
ate ; lateral margins explanate basally ; disk convex, slightly 
impressed near basal angles and each side near base in 
areas equidistant from each other and sides, strongly cari- 
nate at middle in basal 1/3. Elytra together about 3/10 
wider than prothorax, somewhat shorter than abdomen, 
broadly, independently rounded apically ; surface with usual 
indistinct stria-like impressions. Palpi, mesosternum, and 
apical segments of abdomen (dissected) as usual in $ 
Psepheninse; 1st ventral slightly emarginate at middle; all
