 fer. Thorax narrower than there, but slightly wider than long, its punc- 

 tures shallower and more sparse, the median smooth line entire. Elytra 

 one-fifth wider than thorax, sides parallel to apical fourth; punctures of in- 

 tervals still finer, less impressed and much more distant one from another. 

 Length 2.32.9 mm.

Oblong-oval, convex. Black, shining, the minute, hair-like scales very 

 sparse above and beneath, forming single rows on the elytra. Beak of male 

 as long as thorax, rather slender, cylindrical, coarsely and densely punctate 

 on sides; of female as long as head and thorax, more slender, less curved 

 and with antenna? at, instead of in front of middle. Thorax but slightly 

 wider than long, disc alutaceous, finely and sparsely punctate, the med-

 as long as thorax, the punctures of intervals fine and rather distant.

 irict of Columbia. Recorded elsewhere only from Ohio. "Allied 

 to con finis, but with much longer beak and narrower auteunal

 elytral intervals, arranged in single lines. Beak four-fifths as long as 

 thorax, feebly curved; thicker, striate and more roughly punctured in male. 

 Joints 2 7 of funicle equal in length; club oval, robust, as long as the pre- 

 ceding six joints. Thorax slightly wider than long, narrowed and feebly 

 constricted in front, disc minutely alutaceous, rather coarsely punctate, 

 the punctures separated by their own diameters. Elytra equal in width to 

 and three-fourths longer than thorax, sides parallel, rounded behind in 

 apical fourth; stria? very fine, intervals wide, minutely punctate. Proster- 

 num of male with two small fovea? near apex. Length 1.8 2.5 mm. 



Described from New York, Florida and Texas. Recorded from 

 South Jersey, N. J. Frequent at Sanford, Duuedin and Ft. Myers, 

 Fla., in swampy meadows; on huckleberry blossoms in spring; 

 Jan. 29 Dec. 3. Probably occurs throughout Florida. The 

 two northern records were probably based on wrong determina- 

 tions.
