All were taken by me; apparently they all came from the same host species. Its length is mm. Mhnips analogtis, n. sp. Fig. 2 This species is almost identical to mimicus Schedl, but it is distinguished by the male frons and by other characters indicated in the fol- lowing Fic. 2. Mimips analogus: posterolateral .aspect of male elvtral declivity. Male.—Length mm (paratypes mm), times as long as wide; color yellowish brown. P'rons rather strongly convex above, lower third strongly, abruptly, transversely impressed; surface rather coarsely punctate-granulate; ves- titure sparse, fine, long. Antenna as in mimicus. Pronotum times as long as wide; as in mimicus except anterior margin unarmed and discal area smooth, shining (partly reticulate in mimicus. Elytra times as long as wide; as in mimicus except ventrolateral margin of declivity more evenly elevated, basal area of second tooth usually much more strongly developed, and setae on declivita! interstriae 1 slender, longer, these setae stout and blunt in mimicus; punc- tures on elytral disc very slightly smaller. Female.—Similar to female of mimicus ex- cept frons much more convex, with a slight, transverse impression above epistoma, its sur- face smoother, more sharply punctured, its ves- titure finer, not quite as long; anterior margin of pronotum unarmed; declivities differ as in males. Type km E Canton, Ba- rinas, Venezuela.
