18 THE CA.NADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 



Gen. 13. — Aphis. 

 190. polanisiiie, Oestlund, 18S6, Report 42. 



P. S. — Since the above was in print, my friend, Dr. Horvath, has 

 been so good as to reply to a letter of mine and furnish me with the 

 following references : 



Clavigerus, Sze'pligeti, 1883. Rovardszati Lapok, I, p. 4 ; type 

 salicis, Kalt. 



Bradyaphis, Mordvilko, 1S94-5. Faun. Anat. Aphid., p. 46 ; 

 type atiien7iata, Kalt. 



SvMYDOBius, Mordv., op. c, 54 ; type oblo?tgus, Heyd. 



Neither of these papers is mentioned in the " Zoological Record " or 

 in the "Bericht der Entomologie," the one being in Russian and the other 

 in Magyar. The now defunct "Rovardszati Lapok" existed for a single 

 year only (1883) ^"'^ should not be confused with the current "Rovartani 

 Lapok." The title of the Russian work is given me by Dr. Horvath as 

 "K. Faunye i Anatomii sem. Aphididae Privisliavskago Kraja. Varshava, 



1894-5-"' 



TWO NEW ONCIDERES, WrrH NOTES ON SOME OTHER 



COLEOPTERA. 



BY CHAS. SCHAEFFER, MUSEUM OF THE BROOKLYN INSTITUTE OF ARTS 



AND SCIENCES, BROOKLYN, N. Y. 



A fine large Oncideres, which agrees very well with the description 

 of Thomson's tesse/aUis, was sent me lately for identification by Prof. 

 Snow, who collected this fine addition to our fauna in S. Arizona this year. 

 The occurrence of this species in our fauna gives me the opportunity to 

 make known another large Oncideres from Texas, apparently new, which 

 belongs with tesselatus to the sub-genus Loch7nceocles. Following. I give 

 also a new synoptic table, as I never derived great satisfaction from the 

 one given by Dr. Hamilton,"^ who suppresses /w/^i/^r, but allows Texana 

 to remain. My material is not very extensive, but to me piUator seems 

 to be more distinct than Texatia, though an extensive series from inter- 

 mediate localities may show that they are only extreme forms o{ cingulata. 



Thorax as wide behind the lateral tubercle as before, ^ with antennal 

 tubercles prolonged at apex into distinct porrect horns. (Sub- 

 genus Lochmceocles) !•
