from the length of the tegmina and wings which vary independently 

 of general size. The coloration, however, does not vary in as marked 

 a degree, being chiefly limited to the depth of infuscation of the 

 median portion of the pronotal bar. The Raleigh female and one 

 Sulphur Springs male are ochraceous instead of greenish or greenish- 

 yellow in general color. 



A single specimen of this species from Montgomery County, Virginia, 

 in the Hebard Collection is the only record of the species from that 

 State. Brimley has recorded the species from North Carolina at 

 Raleigh. 



Orohelimum molossum Rehn and Hebard. 



This species, which was previously known only from northern 

 Florida (Pablo Beach and Gainesville) and Georgia (Thomasville 

 and Thompson's Mills), is represented by two males and two females 

 taken in a wet drain at Edenton, August 20, a single female taken in 

 high weeds on moist ground at New Berne, August 2-1, and five males 

 and one female taken at Raleigh, September 4-31, 1904. In all 

 probability the record of the closely allied 0. nitidum at Raleigh made 

 by Brimley 22 really relates to this species. A specimen from Ros- 

 lyn, Va., in the Academy's collection, taken in September by Mr. 

 Caudell, shows this species to range to the vicinity of Washington. 

 The North Carolina specimens exhibit considerable individual varia- 

 tion in size, but as is the case with 0. glaberrimum, the average indi- 

 dual from Virginia and North Carolina is smaller than Georgia and 

 Florida examples. The paired pronotal lines are sometimes absent, 

 and vary considerably in intensity when present. 



Orchelimum minor Bruner. 



This beautiful species is represented by three males taken in low 

 pines, fifteen to -twenty feet from the ground at Sulphur Springs, 

 September 2 and October 6, 1905, and a single female from Raleigh, 

 taken September 20, 1904. Material has also been examined in this 

 connection from Thompson Mills, Ga., and Atsion, N. J., the latter 

 taken October 8, 1903, by the junior author. 



The five males before us show very little individual variation in 

 size, and as no measurements have ever been published for the species 

 it seems desirable to give the more important ones of the specimens 

 before us.
