AUGOCORIS. 
Augocoris, Burmeister, Handb. ii. 1, p. 896 (1835) ; Stal, Ofv. Vet.-Ak. Férh. 1867, p. 494. 
This genus is common to the Neotropical Region, having been recorded as far south 
as Buenos Ayres; it is also present in the Antillean fauna. . 
Stal describes the antenne of Augocoris as “ quadriarticulatis.” ‘They are, however, 
apparently three-jointed ; and this at once separates the genus from all others of the 
Scutellerine.

This species can be at once determined structurally by the length of the rostrum, 
which about reaches the posterior coxe only. It is probable that the colour-differences 
in the two specimens figured are sexual.
