SUBFAMILY II. — CAPSINjE. 785 



duced below the eyes ; vertex in male much narrower than eyes, 

 its base not carinate; pronotum trapezoidal, its apex only one- 

 third the width of base, disk finely, densely and evenly punctate, 

 its hind portion strongly convex, declivent forward, collar nar- 

 row but distinct, side margins obtusely carinate, calli small, 

 the areas in front of and between them finely punctate, hind 

 margin broadly rounded ; scutellum convex, as long as commis- 

 sure, obtusely carinate at middle, distinctly punctate; elytra 

 entire, smooth, opaque, slightly surpassing abdomen, clavus 

 and cuneus both strongly declivent. Three neotropical species 

 are known, one from our territory. 



821 ( — ). Cyrtocapsidea variegata sp. nov. 



Short, oval. Head brown, both it and front half of pronotum thickly 

 clothed with golden-yellow scale-like hairs ; pronotum fuscous-brown, its

 and apex dull yellow; clavus fuscous, paler at base and apex; corium 

 fuscous along claval suture, outer half dull yellow; embolium fuscous, 

 vaguely flecked with small yellowish spots ; cuneus reddish-fuscous, its 

 tip and inner margin pale yellow; membrane dusky hyaline, basal half of 

 cells fuscous, veins and outer edges pale; legs pale yellow, femora tinged 

 with fuscous; under surface fuscous-brown, middle of ventrals and geni- 

 tal paler. Joints 1 and 2 of antennae straw-yellow, 1 slightly longer

 times longer than 1 ; 3 and 4 fuscous, united subequal in length to 2. 

 Elytra and base of scutellum thinly clothed with yellow, scale-like hairs. 

 Length, 2.4 mm. 



R. P. Park, Fla., March 17 ; one male swept from roadside 

 herbage. Easily known from our other species of Capsaria by 

 its short oval form, very large eyes, opaque impunctate elytra 

 and floccose yellow scales on head and front half of pronotum. 



XXII. Neoborus Distant, 1884, 276. 



Oblong or oblong-oval shining species having the head im- 

 mersed in thorax to eyes, its front nearly vertical ; eyes very 

 prominent, compressed, overlapping front angles of pronotum ; 

 vertex subdepressed, its base margined ; antennae shorter than 

 body, joint 1 glabrous, but little thicker than 2 ; pronotum 

 trapezoidal, its sides straight, their margins carinate, calli 

 smooth, prominent, the area between and in front of them 

 punctate, hind portion convex, declivent forward, coarsely 

 punctate, hind angles obtusely rounded, basal margin subtrun- 

 cate; scutellum feebly convex, sparsely irregularly punctate;
