Notes on Galerucince in My Collection 
251 
Luperodes vittatus sp. nov. 
Very like suturalis but with the black color replaced by 
greenish aeneous, thorax entirely of this latter color margined 
with yellow and with 3 large foveae placed 2-1, also a small 
apical; elytra yellow, with a broad humeral sublateral, and 
sutural, aeneous stripe, the former not quite attaining the tip 
the latter becoming very fine at the apex. 
T}rpe 4 specimens (green label) Bolivia (Cordico?). Length 
5^2 mm. Bow. coll. 
Head aeneous, sparsely punctate, with well marked frontal 
fovea and cross sulcation, thorax sparsely punctate, more thick- 
ly in the foveae, margined, and sides rounded, the yellow margins 
broadened at the anterior angles, elytra parallel, smooth, shining, 
sparsely punctate, the sutural stripe is a little widened at the 
scutel; the general appearance is of an evenly striped handsome 
form, body beneath and legs with less greenish tinge. 
Luperodes bruchii sp. nov. 
Again close to suturalis ; entirely shining black, except the 
sides and base of the thorax are yellow, and on each elytron, 
nearly surrounding the humerus is a triangular yellow patch, 
partly encircling the humerus (leaving it black) with an agle 
directed towards but not reaching the suture, the yellow patches 
on either side leave an even, wide sutural black band a trifle 
wider at the scutel. 
Type 1 specimen Argentine Prov. Catamarca 4-111-07 
(Bruch). Length 4 mm. Bow. coll. 
Head punctate, with deep transverse and longitudinal 
furrow, antennae moderate, joints 2, 3 equal, thorax very sparsely 
punctulate obsoletely foveate on either side, the ordinary connect- 
ing acruate depression very obsolete, the black spot is discal, 
including the anterior edge, the elytra are finely punctate, 
somewhat depressed along the suture, but no basal depression, 
body below not as shining on account of short pubescence.
