Like Pachyta, a characteristic north-temperate genus, but more numerously represented 
in North America than in the Old World. About thirty-five species are known.

Hab. Norta America !, Pacific States, Colorado 2.—Mexico (Saldé). 
One female example in the Sallé collection, labelled “Leptura axillaris, Sturm,” MS. 
LEPTURA (p. 38). 
Leptura aliena (p. 38). 
This species was described from female examples only. The sexes differ very 
considerably. 
do. Quoad formam L. rufipedi 3 (Schall.) haud dissimilis, elytris supra paullulum deplanatis; antennis quam 
corpus multo longioribus. 
Q. Elytra plus minusve elongato-oblonga, depressa, apice obtuso-rotundata ; antennis quam corporis dimidium 
parum longioribus. 
To the locality given, add :—-Mzxico, Orizaba 11,500 feet (Sallé), Las Vigas (Hége) ; 
GUATEMALA, Quiche Mountains 7000 to 9000 feet (Champion). 
The species is of abnormal appearance therefore only in the female, and even in that 
sex the elytra are sometimes no longer relatively than in many other species of the 
genus. A more important character, and one which distinguishes this and the following 
species (L. anomaia) from all other Lepture, is the short and broad vertical forehead. 
The colour varies from dull black to castaneous, and the abdomen is sometimes 
testaceous red (var. erythrogaster, Sturm, MS.): the latter peculiarity exists in examples 
which do not differ in other respects, and is in no wise specific. The sculpture of the 
head and thorax consists of round punctures, which are sometimes smaller and sometimes 
larger, in the latter case being close together and subalveolated, leaving a smooth 
dorsal line. 
Found under bark of pines. Named L. corticina, Chevr., and L. nigrita, Sturm (MS.), 
in the Sallé collection.
