Prof. Uhler states that this species “ occurs at considerable altitudes on the Black 
Mountains of North Carolina, and is not unfrequent upon grassy and shrubby spots in 
Georgia and Florida.” “It appears to lay eggs in late spring and towards the latter end 
of summer.” ‘The Cuban form is usually larger, and has the lateral angles longer and 
more slender than in those from the United States.” 
SIBARIA. 
Sibaria, Stal, En. Hem. ii. p. 23 (1872). 
Stal thus differentiates the above :—“ Hoc genus ad Mormideam appropinquat, sed 
differt capite antrorsum magis angustato, oculis majoribus, femoribus spinosis, tibiis 
distincte sulcatis, corii margine exteriore basi haud calloso; ab Huchisto et affinibus 
differt marginibus lateralibus thoracis obtusissimis, transversim rugosis.” S2baria at 
present includes but one species. |

p. 527. 
Only two species of Galedanta are at present recorded, both belonging to the Neo- 
tropical Region. It has considerable affinity with the following genus, Kuschistus; but 
the lateral lobes of the head are longer than the central, and the scutellum possesses 
a tuberculous callosity in each basal angle.
