Mr. Smith (Proc. Port. Soc. Nat. Hist., 1868, p. 148) says that this and 

 St. bilineatus, Scudd., are but varieties of St. maculipennis, which is probably 

 correct ; but as the materials I have are not sufficient to settle this point, 

 I give tlie description of each, that this may be hereafter determined.

Vertex slightly swollen at the anterior border of the eyes, but rounded,

 behind the eye is rather broad, and there is another similar one on the 

 pronotum farther down on the side, with a yellowish streak between them.
