Psyche 
[June 
termined) from Camaguey, Cuba, Aug.-Sept., J. M. Osorio 
(Collection Estacion E. Agronomica, Cuba). 
This species differs radically from Coptia sauricollis in 
the much reduced armature of prothorax, absence of deep 
channeling in prothoracic margin anteriorly, and punctua- 
tion of epipleurse and abdomen. The species represents in 
these ways an approach to Panagseus, but is nevertheless 
referable to Coptia, as shown by the narrow male tarsi, 
sparse pubescence, etc. 
47. Morion georgiae (Beauv.). 
monilicomis (Latr.). 
Morion costigerus n. sp. 
Parallel, subdepressed, entirely black, somewhat shining. 
Head : clypeus obtusely quadridentate ; front with two lon- 
gitudinal, somewhat sinuous sulci anteriorly ; eyes less 
abruptly prominent than in georgiae. Prothorax formed 
nearly as in georgiae but more elongate, only about a tenth 
(by measurement) wider than long. Elytra with moder- 
ately impressed strise, latter impunctate; intervals only 
slightly convex except that seventh is strikingly costiform 
in about basal third ; sixth interval sloping inward basally 
so that fifth stria is at bottom of an obtuse V-shaped de- 
pression; third interval with single puncture near second 
stria just before apical third. Last ventral with one seti- 
gerous puncture about a third from apex on each side. Hind 
trochanters practically half as long as femora, rounded 
apically. Length 17-20 mm. 
Jamaica: holotype (Museum of Comparative Zoology no. 
19511) from Newton, 3,000 ft., Jan., C. T. Brues; 1 para- 
type (M. C. Z.) from Cinchona, 5,000 ft., Jan., Brues; 2 
paratypes (American Museum) from Cumberland District, 
Clarendon, Dec. 15-18, about 3,000 ft. 
This species may be known at once from all previously 
described American Morion by the very conspicuously 
costate seventh elytral intervals, which are much more ele- 
vated than in M. simplex Dej. Otherwise it somewhat re- 
sembles a very large, slender M. georgiae, with which it 
agrees absolutely in all characters of generic value.
