Pamphilius rubi, n. sp. — Differs from ocellatus in size, absence of 

 mark on pleurse, less prominent ocellar basin, etc. This species was 

 \dht\^^ pallimaculata, but is not that species, although it resembles it in 

 colour. 



9. — Length, 7.75 mm. Clypeus and front sculptured as in fulvi- 

 frons; middle carina sloping abruptly at base of clypeus; crest not sharply 

 defined, strongly broken by antennal furrows ; ocellar basin as in 

 ftilvifro7is; vertex and orbits subopaque, with a {tv^ scattered punctures ; 

 postocellar area parted by a faint furrow ; third antennal joint shorter than 

 scape ; labrum gently rounded at the apex, the middle of apex with a 

 small tooth; mesonotum and mesopleurge shining, with separate punctures; 

 Ecutellum with closer punctures, appendage dulled with fine incomplete 

 striae ; abdomen shining ; venation normal. Colour black ; apex of the 

 clypeus (deeper in middle), spot on lower posterior orbits, three spots on 

 crest, line from superior orbits to occiput, postocellar lines reduced to 

 spots, apical third of antennae, tegulse, scutellum, legs below coxae, except 

 posterior tibiae, /a/<f7^//^«'y abdomen beyond first segment sanguinous. 

 Wings hyaline, iridescent, slightly dusky ; venation dark brown. 



Type locality : St. John, N. B., Canada, July 24, 1899 (J. Fletcher).

Pamphilius subcavifrons, n. sp. — Separated from its nearest known 

 ally, cruvi/rofis (Cresson), by the opaque head, circular middle fovea, 

 broader and larger genitalia, etc. 



^ . — Length, 6.75 mm. Anterior margin of the clypeus subtruncate, 

 lateral angles rounded, the surface and area between the antennae 

 punctatogranular, the lateral supraclypeal areas impunctate; middle fovea 

 small, circular ; frontal crest very strong, deeply broken by the antennal 

 furrows, which extend nearly to the occiput ; ocellar basin rounded below, 

 sharply V-shaped above ; postocellar furrow distinct ; venter finely 

 shagreened, occiput and posterior orbits shining, with separate punctures ; 

 antennas about 22 jointed, third and fourth joints subequal ; mesonotum 

 shining, almost impunctate ; scutellum finely punctured, dulled; abdomen 

 impunctate ; genitalia very large, broader than long ; hypopygidium 

 broadly, deeply impressed ; venation normal. Colour black ; head below 

 crest, mandibles, palpi, posterior orbits a little above the top of eyes.
