250 THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST 



8774. — Acalles ventrosus Lee. Quite common beneath 

 boards along the margin of fresh-water lakes near Dunedin and 

 Kissimmee. January 18 — March 19. 



Tyloderma punctata Casey. Very common with the 

 preceding; also at Sarasota and Ormond. Mating in February 

 and March. Very distinct from T. ceream Say with which it is 

 usually confounded. A single specimen of the latter was taken at 

 Lake Okeechobee. 



8797. — Cryptorhyncus apiculatus Gyll. A single example 

 of this rare species was taken at Dunedin January 20; also from 

 the border of a lake. 



8821. — Tachygonus lecontei Gyll. One of these curious 

 little weevils was beaten from oak at Ormond. April 15. 



8826. — Craponius inaequalis Say. Quite frequent at 

 Dunedin, Eustis and Ormond. January 23 — April 13. Beaten 

 from the wax-myrtle or bayberry 



11,110. — Baris aeneomicans Casey. Frequent at Dunedin; 

 also taken on Sanibel Island and at Kissimmee. Occurs in low 

 moist meadows. 



8907. — Madarellus undulatus Say. One specimen from 

 Utopia, east shore of Lake Okeechobee. The thorax is much more 

 coarsely punctate than in those from Indiana. 



8978. — Rhodobaeus tredecimpunctatus quinquepunc- 

 tatus Say. One taken by sweeping at Sanford. April 9. Schwarz 

 records it as occurring on thistle flowers. The elytra are wholly 

 black except a narrow reddish stripe along each side margin. The 

 central spot of thorax is large, fusiform, reaches almost to apex, 

 and in the Sanford specimen unites at base with the two hinder 

 lateral spots which are obliquely merged along the base. It is a 

 distinct southern colour variety, which in my opinion should be 

 kept in the lists. 



8983. — Sphenophorus inaequalis Say. Single specimens 

 were taken at St. Petersburgh and Eustis beneath cover in low 

 damp soil. January 20 — April 7. 



9002. — Sphenophorus retusus Gyll. One at Dunedin. 

 January 16. 



11,215. — Sphenophorus minimus Hart. One at Dunedin,
