Itchgrass [Rottboellia cochinchinensis(Lour.) Clayton ♯ ROOEX] is a large aggressive annual in the Poaceae. This weedy grass is native to Southeast Asia. It now occurs also in tropical and subtropical areas of Australia and Africa and has been introduced into the West Indies and North, Central, and South America. It apparently was introduced into the United States at Miami, Fla. and Lafayette, La. in the early 1900s (1, 6, 7).

The very latest authoritative names for the beetles of Puerto Rico are included in the "Checklist of Coleopterous Insects of Mexico, Central America, the "West Indies and South America", compiled by Dr. Richard E. Blackwelder. This is Bulletin No. 185 of the United States National Museum, of which two parts appeared in 1944, the third in 1945, the fourth in 1946, while the fifth and concluding part was received late in 1947. As indications of generic transfers are not given in this list, none is included in the following pages. His changes in the gender of specific names are followed in the first citation even of economic insects, but often not subsequently.
