 yellow, rather thickly flecked with reddish-brown spots and dots; second 

 antennal greenish-yellow, fuscous toward apex; membrane uniformly 

 pale dusky translucent; hind femora with a large yellow spot or ring on

 Car., Aug. 25 (Brimley) . Recorded only from Massachusetts

704 ( — ). Phytocoris megalopsis sp. nov. 



Elongate, subparallel. Color above a nearly uniform fuscous-brown, 

 thickly clothed with fine whitish appressed silky hairs and suberect dusky 

 ones; vertex and lower half of face dull yellow; lorae tinged with red- 

 dish; eyes deep black, very large in male; collar and hind edge of pro- 

 notum whitish; costal margins of elytra and cuneus with alternate 

 minute fuscous and white spots; inner margin of cuneus with two sub- 

 median black dots; membrane pale translucent with an iridescent sheen; 

 femora and joint 1 of antenna? dull yellow, thickly flecked with reddish- 

 brown spots and dots, third and fourth antennals fuscous, the former 

 with extreme base pale; tip of beak, tarsal claws and tibial spines fus- 

 cous-brown ; under surface pale reddish-brown, middle of prosternum 

 and front coxae ivory-white. Joint 1 of antenna? as long as width of 

 vertex and one eye, 2 three and a half times as long as 1, 3 two-fifths 

 the length of 2, one-third longer than 4. Sides of elytra straight and 

 parallel to base of cuneus, thence feebly converging into the conjointly 

 broadly rounded tips. Length to end of membrane, 5.5 mm. 



Dunedin, Fla., April 20, one male taken at electric light. Due 

 to the very large eyes the width of interocular area is but 

 slightly more than one-half that of uniformis. The large coal- 

 black eyes, uniform hue of second antennal and alternate macu- 

 lation of costal margin easily separate this from the other 

 members of Group II.

 notum and under surface greenish-yellow, the sides of tylus, margins of 

 cheeks, oblique striae on front, sternum and sides of ventrals usually 

 tinged with reddish-brown; femora and tibiae reddish-brown, mottled 

 with paler. Joint 1 of antennae greenish-yellow tinged with brownish, 

 mottled with paler on inner side, one-fourth shorter than width of head ;
