THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 203 



Bearberry (Arctostaphylos uva-ursi) ; superficially they resemble dark 

 specimens of alius, but structurally they could not be separated from 

 ciimulatus with the material in hand. 



They are shorter and heavier than aamilatus, with short broad elytra 

 which just cover the abdomen. In colour they are a much darker testace- 

 ous, shading to fuscous. 



Phlepsitis a/bidus, n. sp. — Small, pale greenish white, resembling 

 Eutettix insana until closely examined, sh'ghtly more robust. Length 

 4.5 mm. ; width 1.25 mm. 



Head as wide as the pronotum, vertex fiat, slightly sloping, slightly 

 but distinctly angled before, a little over half as long as its basal width, 

 two-thirds the length of the pronotum ; front convex in both diameters, 

 scarcely narrowing until just before the apex; elytra moderately long, 

 compressed behind, the claval nervures straight. 



Colour : vertex face and scutellum pale, creamy yellow ; pronotum 

 with a greenish cast ; elytra white, with fine, almost microscopic, greenish 

 fuscous irrorations, a dark point at apex of clavus and a i)air at the outer 

 angles of the lorse ; beneath greenish white. 



Genitalia : ultimate ventral segment of the female about twice longer 

 than the penultimate, posterior margin slightly rounding, two small round- 

 ing lobes faintly outlined at the centre. 



Described from four females taken at Pueblo, Colo. In the white 

 colour and the greenish character of the irrorations this species is very dis- 

 tinct from any before described. 



Eutettix ifisa7ia, n. sp. — Form of modest a nearly, but smaller, pale, 

 slightly greenish, white, peppered all over, thickest on the elytra, with 

 small round black specks. Length, 9 4 mm,, $, 3.25 mm. ; width i mm. 



Vertex nearly flat, a third longer in the middle than at the eye ; three- 

 fourths as long as the pronotum, two-thirds as long as its basal width, 

 rounding to the convex front, which is slightly expanded below the antennal 

 pits, clypeus convex-margined above ; elytra moderately long, flaring as 

 in modesta, venation rather weak, the claval nervures either coalescing or 

 tied across in the middle. 



Colour : vertex and face pale greenish orange, vertex with a few small 

 spots ; pronotum olive with scattered dark dots ] elytra white, sprinkled 

 all over with small round dots which appear to be on the surface, all 

 below white, somewhat dotted on legs, connexivum and pygofers.
