[part the segment slightly swelled into two little chocks before the channol; the edge strongly rcflexed ; the edge of the 3d also a little reflcxed; the 2d beneath as tiiberculate at base. The whole insect finely and densely punctured, on the abdomen as well as on the thorax; more coarsely on the margin of 2-4 seg- ments. The body woolly, furnished with gray-fulvous hair. Black. Mandibles, the 2-3 first joints of antennae, a frontal longitudinal line, an elongate large post-ocular spot, not touching the eyes, and an angulate line on the vertex parted by the tubercle, and continuing along the inner orbits of the eyes, rufous. Prothorax, tcgulaj, a spot under the wing, post-scutel, hinder part of scutol, and often the angles of metathorax, rufous. Abdomen rufous; the base of the first two segments black, and the margin of all segments yellowish. The black of the base is often prolonged on the middle of the segment. Feet rufous. Wings smoky, with the anterior edge ferruginous. %. Clypeus wider than long, fulvous or yellowish, with argen- teous reflections, although having some black hair; its inferior margin rounded, with a little notch and bidentate in the middle. Hook of the antennaj large, arcuate, black Var. a. The head not much variegated with ferruginous. Orbits and vertex nearly black. A black spot near the edge of the 2d abd. segment. b. Metathorax black. iicss. a. diff.—The coloring'of this insect is what I should like to call the Mexican livery; this dull ferruginous fulvo-vclutinous livery being quite a Mexican type. This coloration is quite that 0^ Ancistrocerus tuhercuUceps, and much also that of Od>jneruii Gucrreri. From this it difi'crs, by its abdomen, not conical, tin; first segment being much narrower than the 2d; by the margin of the 1st segment which is hemmed, and that of the second, much more
