Subfamily Eucharin^. 



Mr. Howard states that the genera of this subfamily are in such 

 confusion that a good syno])sis cannot be given until they have been 

 thoroughly reviewed, therefore the genera of which s])ecies have been 

 described as occurring in our fanna—Euchnris and Thoraccudha — are 

 not characterized in the following table : 



Scutellum simple at apex; antenna; 1.3-jointed, simple in bcitli sexes.
