in their " British Hemiptera," and I feel but Httle doubt 

 about the determination, although I possess no European 

 specimens for direct comparison. I think this is its first 

 reported occurrence in this country. It is not uncommon 

 here on Umbelliferge, especially Cojiium maculatum and 

 Hieradcstim sativum, from May to July ; and like the pre- 

 ceding species, is variable in color and marking. 



* Capsus ater Linn. May to Aug. Abundant everywhere. 

 Monalocoris filicis Linn. July and Aug. Common on various ferns in 



deep woods. I have rarely taken it in open sunny places. 



Sej'icophafics ocellatiis Reut. Rare. Swept from grass in a dry meadow 

 in June. 



* Ibiacora Stalii Reut. July and Aug. Swept from coarse weeds in 



damp places. 

 Pilophorus bifasciatus Fab. July and Aug. 



* Pilophoj-us confusus Kirsch. June to Aug. Not uncommon on pines 



and other trees. 



* Globiceps flavomaculattis Fab. June and Aug. The macropterus 



form rare. 

 Garga/msfusiformis Say. July and Aug. Generally taken in company 

 with Lopidea media Say. 



* Stiphrosoma stygica Say. June and July. Very common, especially 



on wild sunflowers. 

 Haltiais bractatus Say. July. But one fully developed specimen taken. 



The undeveloped form common. 

 Haltiais apterus Linn. July. Common. 



* Idoiocoris famelicus Uhl. May to Aug. Not uncommon. 

 Idolocoris agilis Uhl. July and Aug. Not uncommon. Most of the 



specimens which I have examined have the pronotum and 

 scutellum entirely black. Occasionally an example occurs 

 with the yellow markings as described by Mr. Uhler. 



Macrocoleus coagulatus Uhl. June to Aug. Dry dusty roadsides; swept 

 from grass and low weeds. 



Episcopus ornatus Reut. Two examples of this pretty little Capsid oc- 

 curred tome while sweeping weeds near this city, July, 1885.
