a long dorsal horn, but not reaching to the tips of the tegmina.

BOCYDIUM ANGORA, Perty. 
(Plate XLVI. figs. 2, 2a.) 
Stylocentrus, Still, Kong], Sr. Vet. Ak. Handl. viii. 1, p. 19. Fairm. l.c. p. 509. Fowl. l.c. 
p. 1G3. Stylocentrus chamgnoni, Tab. X. fig. 8. 
Bocydium was divided to receive Bocydium ancora , a rare species found in Cayenne, 
but it may be doubted as to the necessity of such a separation, and I restore it to the 
list given by Fairmaire, p. 509. I do not think that the insect I figure is separate 
from Stylocentrus championi. 
A handsome insect, known by the upright procephalic style, branching horizontal^ 
on each side, and accompanied by a long sinuous horn, which starts from the middle 
and extends beyond the tegmina; there are no bulbous swellings; rich Vandyke 
brown in colour, with a white pilose streak across the metopidium, which unites 
above the scutellum; suprahumerals small and spinose; legs orange, with black 
tibial tips ; tegmina variegated, with clear, angular costal spaces. 
This insect, and the variety S. championi, is reputed to be scarce. 
Size, 7 mm. 
Habitat. —Brazil, Panama, Bugaba, 3000 leet. Cayenne. 
Figured from the B.M. and the Wollaston Collection. 
Canon Fowler includes this insect and also the genus Lycoderes in the sub-family 
Centrotinse. Fairmaire adds Bocydium yermari, of Brazil. 
Genus : HYPSAUCHENIA (Germ.). 
This genus is placed after Centrotus by Fairmaire, p. 520, the character of which 
is controlled by the difficultly ascertained fact, whether the species have the scutellum 
covered or concealed by the pronotum. It is unsatisfactory that such an apparently 
important characteristic should be difficult to decide on. In Darnis the pronotum 
covers not only the scutellum but often even the whole tegmina. In Centrotus
