THE DATA ARRANGED BY SPECIES. 

 TRIBE HIPPODAMINI. 



Genus ANISOSTICTA Duponchel. 

 4033. Anisosticta stri^ata Thunberg. 



Distribution: Northern States and Canada. 



Var. duhriana Mulsant. 



The subapical spot only free from (In- pattern of conlkn nt spot?. Typical specimens 

 r;irc in North America, but have been taken on Vancouver Island. 



Var. bitriangularis Say. 



Others than tlie apical spot free from the pattern of confluent spots. Mo;;t common 



in America. 

 Var. A. 



Spots all separate. Manitol>;i; Sand Hill;;. Nebraska. Thep-e specimens piobably 

 represent a subspecies, for a specimen showing nearly as much separation 

 came from Beaver Dam, Wisconsin. Specimens of the typical species of 

 the variety (lohrifinti are rare. 

 Var. B. 



A specimen from Wyoming shows spots fused into two marks, except the juxta- 

 sutural spots, which are free. 



Weise records 2 specimens of A. novemdecimpunctata var. irrcniilaris 

 with 1, 2, 3 -I i, 4 i 5, 6 the suture, 7 ! 8, 9 (his numbering), from 

 Oregon. This throws some doubt on the specific distinction between A. 

 novemdecimpunctata and stririata. The difference in the elytral markings 

 are certainly bridged over by our variations. 



Genus NAEMIA Mulsant. 

 3034. Nacmia seriata Mulsant. 



Distribution: Maritime regions of the eastern United States and south- 

 ern California. 



Form n. The spots separate, but the apical spot meets the suture. 



Form h f Some of the spots separate, others united. Mulsant says the separation of the 



third spot from the ground is most frequent, followed by the separation of 



the third from the fourth. 

 Form c. Scutellar mark prolonged and extended to the second spot. 



Snh^/if cirs <>f Florida: 



Pigment reduced, so that the spots are not confluent. In this it is analogous to the 

 subspecies floridana of McgiUfi macuhita. Pronotal pattern resolved to 4 

 spots in some cases. 



Subspecies litiginosa Mulsant. 



Specimens from Southern California in the Leng collection have the spots less con- 

 fluent longitudinally, but more so transversely. They also have the caudal white spot 



on pronotum larger.
