THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST 277 



Eleminus ashmeadi Casey. 



Four examples have been taken at Dunedin, February 23 — 

 April 11, by sweeping ferns in a wet hammock, and another at 

 Sanford on March 28. The unique type of Casey was from St. 

 Nicholas, Florida. 



Zonantes schwarzi Casey. 



A specimen of this well-marked, little Anthicid was beaten 

 from the flowers of the Virginia willow, Itea virginica L., in a wet 

 hammock on March 27. Only the type, described from Biscayne 

 Bay, Fla., has heretofore been recorded. From Casey's descrip- 

 tion* the Dunedin specimen diff^ers somewhat in colour, the median 

 black bar of elytra being broken at the suture, while the legs are 

 pale except the femora which are black at base. 



Sandytes ptinoides Schz. 

 This species occurs on ferns and other foliage in wet hammocks. 

 Two specimens have been taken near Dunedin, one December 17, 

 the other March 12. It is recorded from New Smyrna and Enter- 

 prise by Schwarz as very rare. 



Gnathium francilloni Kirby. 

 Four specimens taken by sweeping low vegetation along the 

 margin of a pond, October 26. No previous published Florida 

 record can be found. 



Nemognathus nemorensis Hentz. 

 One specimen taken with the preceding. "Tampa, very 

 rare," is Schwarz's record. 



Nemognathus vittigera Lee. 

 Ft. Myers. Sarasota and Dunedin, one specimen from each 

 locality; March 4-June 10; the one on the latter date at porch 

 light, the others on flowers of thistle. Le Conte gives its range** 

 as Illinois, Missouri and Texas. 



Alloxacis pleuralis Lee. 

 Six specimens at porch light; June 10-July 5. 



Alloxacis floridana Horn. 



Also at porch light, nine specimens having been taken in June 



and July. It is very probable that this will prove tp be only a
