164 HEMIPTERA-HETEROPTERA. 
Subfam. PSEUDOPHLG@INZ.. 
Pseudophleina, Stal, En. Hem. i. p. 219 (1870); Ofv. Vet.-Ak. Férh. 1872, no. 6, p. 50. 
The head quarters of this subfamily is the Palearctic Region; and two of the three 
American genera which represent it are also found in that region. 
DASYCORIS. 
Dasycoris, Dall. List Hem. ii. pp. 487 & 519 (1852) ; Stal, Ofy. Vet.-Ak. Férh. 1872, no. 6, p. 53. 
Coreus, Fieb. Eur. Hem. pp. 57 & 220 (1861). 
Two American species of this Palearctic genus have been enumerated. The antenne 
are stout, rough, and hairy (the character relied on by Dallas) ; and Stal further differen- 
tiates “marginibus lateralibus anticis thoracis totis spinoso-pectinatis.” The posterior 
coxee are placed widely apart.

A typical specimen in the Stockholm Museum is here figured. 
SCOLOPOCERUS. | 
Scolopocerus, Uhler, Wheeler’s Rep. Geog. Expl. v. Zool. chap. xii. p. 832 (1875). 
The author describes the genus as having the “general features of Dasycoris ;” but 
he has not given differential characters. It appears to differ principally by the non- 
pectinated lateral margins of the pronotum and the non-pilose but granulated antenne, 
which are also described as having “the basal joint longer than the second, the third 
longest, fourth very short, conical at tip, having only the base granulose.” In the 
figure of the type, S. secundarius from Arizona (ibid. pl. xlii. fig. 5), these relative 
antennal lengths are quite differently portrayed, which is apparently the fault of the 
artist. In the Mexican species, which I have here included in the genus, the basal 
joint is incrassated and slightly shorter than the second, the remaining joints as 
described by Prof. Uhler. The rostrum is described as “extending nearly to the inter- 
mediate coxe.” 
1. Scolopocerus uhleri, n. sp. (Tab. XVI. fig. 6.) 
Above brownish testaceous. Antenne pale granulate, speckled with fuscous; basal joint incrassated, slightly 
shorter than the second; third longest; fourth shortest, and thickened granulate at base only. Head 
sparingly subgranulate, with a central pale longitudinal line. Pronotum subgranulate, with a central 
longitudinal levigate line; the disk transversely luteous, anterior and posterior portions dark fuscous, the 
lateral margins slightly reflexed and sinuated, the lateral angles subprominent, slightly raised and rounded. 
Scutellum subgranulose, depressed at base and towards apex, with a central longitudinal line, apex, and
