NOTE ON TINOBREGMUS VITTATUS (Van Duzee). 



Herbert Osborn. 



Tinobre^imis vittatus was described by Van Duzee in 1894 from 

 two specimens collected in Florida, females only being represent- 

 ed. Since then no further record of the species has been made 

 and the male has remained unknown. The species is an extremely 

 interesting one, possessing a number of unique characters, and 

 remains still the only species known to the genus which was 

 erected by Van Duzee for its reception. 



As I can now give two additional records and a description of 

 the male, a note on the species seems warranted. 



Some time ago I received a female specimen in a collection of 

 Homoptera collected in Bermuda and kindly given to me by Dr. 

 C. M. Weed. Quite recently Prof. J. S. Hine has placed in my 

 hands several specimens including both sexes, collected at the 

 Gulf Biologic Station, Cameron, lyouisiana, in August, 1903.
