 the basal half of the disk more fuscous; male more reddish, 

 including the embolium and cuneus. 



$. Length 6.8 mm., width 2.1 mm. Head nearly as in arizona but 

 with the black on the tylus and front more extended. Pronotum deep 

 dull red, calli black, the disk somewhat darkened with fuscous. Hem- 

 elytra as in ariznna, but all white of the embolium, cuneus and scu- 

 tellum replaced by red. Legs more fuscous and sides of the venter 

 with more red than in arizona; genital claspers distinctive of the 

 species (fig. 2). 



9 . Length 7.2 mm., width 2.3 mm. Hemelytra with more fuscous 

 than red, embolium and outer half of the cuneus pale, inner half of 

 the cuneus red ; disk of the pronotum having the red darkened with 

 fuscous, anterior margin more pale with reddish. 



This species was taken in company with arizonae on Robinia 

 ncomc.vicana and at the time was thought to be the same spe 

 cies. It is possible that apache was merely attracted to the 

 plant to feed on the flowers and does not breed there.
