The large series before us shows little size variation. The majority 

 of specimens from the more southern points average darker in 

 coloration, with colors more intense and brilliant. In this species 

 the wings are always present and nearly as long as, but wholfy 

 concealed by, the tegmina. 



The material here studied was taken : in weeds near Rappahannock 

 River (Fredericksburg), in green undergrowth of heavy forest near 

 stream (Weldon), common in low green undergrowth of "branch" 

 and beaten from heavy green undergrowth in short-leaf pine forest 

 (Columbia) , beaten from undergrowth of long-leaf pine woods (Ashley 

 Junction), scarce in tall weeds near stream in oak and short-leaf 

 pine woods (Buckhead), in small clump of sweet gum shoots in gray- 

 bark pine forest (Sandfly), in heavy undergrowth of gray-bark pine 

 forest (Isle of Hope) and common in tangles of small bushes and 

 vines along Flint River (Albany). The species has been recorded 

 as far north on the Atlantic coast as Staten Island, New York; west- 

 ward its distribution extends far beyond the regions here under 

 consideration.

 as far north as Tottenville, Staten Island, New York.
