 June 5-10, by myself. This species is very near to H. rubicunda 

 Fallen, and differs from it most in the proportion of the second 

 joint of the antenna. It is somewhat variable in depth of colors, 

 but it has not been found of the rosy-red color common to speci 

 mens from Europe. It is generally of a pale dull fulvous color, 

 with a whitish powdery aspect, caused by the flat, whitish 

 pubescence, and the vein of the areole is also generally white.

Ivor}- yellow, highly polished, above conspicuously, sparsely punctate 

 with brown ; form a little less robust than that of C. nebulosus. Head 

 highly polished, convex, crossed near the base by a curved brown band, the 

 brown color spreading down each side of face and leaving an oblong oval 

 pale spot on the middle, each side of tylus lineated with pisceous, sutures 

 of the cheeks also pisceous ; eyes dark brown ; rostrum yellowish testa 

 ceous, piceous at tip, reaching between the middle coxae ; antennae of nor 

 mal length, and medium thickness, the basal joint usually dark at tip, the 

 second with two dark bands, that of the apex darkest, the two apical joints 

 united scarcely as long as the second one, infuscated except at the points 

 of articulation. Legs honey yellow, minutely sprinkled with brown, the 

 femora with two pisceous bands near the tip, and sometimes a little 

 pisceous beneath, tibiae also with two wider bands, the nails and tip of 

 tarsi usually pisceous. Pro no turn strongly convex, rather coarsely, un 

 evenly, roughly punctate with pale brown, the callosities prominent, con

 sharply defined, ivory white, preceded by a piceous border on the head, pos 

 terior margin white, sharply defined, obsoletely sinuated next the scutel- 

 lum, the sides widely rounded oft", sinuately bordered, with the lateral 

 flap pale and carrying a pisceous spot behind the eye. Scutellum promi

 the sides and venter, the prosternum with a small black spot in front of 

 the anterior coxae, back of this a black spot appears farther out next the 

 meso-pleuron and from a series extends backward to the base of the ulti 

 mate segment of the venter. Hemelytra either ivory yellow, or pale tes 

 taceous, deeply somewhat irregularly punctate, minutely pubescent, con- 

 vexly inflated in the middle, the punctures of the disk and behind being
