reflexed at the basal part, the outer margin of the dilated part denticulated, 

 corium nearly reaching the apical angle of the fourth segment of the con- 

 nexivum, whitish, the narrow interstices between the transverse veins, 

 the two longitudinal ridges, a transverse ridge behind the middle of the 

 mesocorium, and the apical margin between the ends of the longitudinal 

 ridges fuscous, membrane fuscous with the veins broadly whitish. Abdo 

 men ferruginous, a small round spot at the inner basal angle of the seg 

 ments of the connexivum and the outer margin of these segments dark 

 fuscous, this dark border narrowly interrupted at the angles. The shortly 

 explanated apical lobes of the genital segment in the male rounded, meet 

 ing interiorly in an angular incision. Legs dark luteous, femora biannu-

 South California (Morrison). Stockholm Museum. 



Somewhat allied to A. fuscoannulatus Stal, but, apart from 

 the very different color-markings, easily distinguished by the 

 shape of the scutellum. 



2. Aradus similis Say. 

 Texas is to be added as the southmost locality of this species. 



3. 'Aradus Falleni Stal. 



Vet. Ak. Handl. II, 7, 1860, p. 68. (Syn. : pallidicornis Stal, 

 Enum. Hem. Ill, 1873, p. 136.)

There is a specimen from Texas, taken by Belfrage, in the

4. Aneurus m'inutus Bergr. 



In this species the hemelytra are sometimes milky white with 

 with the base of the corium narrowly brown. 



A comparison with the palaearctic Aradidas shows the following 

 number of species for the two regions : 



Nearctic region. Palcearctic region.
