XoTE. — Stilbus (olibrns) testaceus Panz.. consimilis Marsh, with which 

 apicalis Mels., has been united is not known to be American. 



COCCINELLID^. 



305. Anisosticta strig-ata Tliunb., hitriangularis Say, muJt'i guttata Rand. — Mas- 



sachusetts. Canada. Michigan. Illinois, Wisconsin, Hudson Bay, Van- 

 couver Island ; France, Hungary. Lapland, Irkutsk. T. iv, 369: Crotch, 

 93: var. frregMZaWs Weise ; Oregon. 

 Obs. — \9-pii,nctata Linn., which Mr. Geo. Crotcli says (Rev. Coccinel. 1874, 

 93) is an Asiatic and European species, is thought by Mr. Weise to be 

 the strigata of American authors, and he does not cite strigata Thunb. as 

 American (Best-Tab. Coccinel. 1885, 14, 15). Owing to this and other 

 confusion, the synonymy given, it is thought best to retain for the 

 present. 



306. Adonia variegrata Goeze, mutabilis Scriba, var. constellata Laicli. — Nova 



Scotia, LeConte. Common tlirougliout Siberia. Col. Am., 245: Heyden, 

 215. Europe, north Africa. Madeira. Abyssinia, central Asia, India. T. 

 iv, 368, Crotch, 98. But one specimen has been found in our territory, 

 and this dou!)tfnl. 



.307. Hippodamia parenthesis Say. — Nearly everywhere in the United States 

 and Canada to Alaska; from Crotch's statement it is perhaps a variety 

 of H. amvena Fald., the only diflference being in the diminished amount 

 of black in the design of the elytra. H. amoena inhabits eastern Siberia. 

 T. iv, 368; Crotcli, 97; Heyden, 215; Col. Am. 245. 



.308. H. 13-punctata Linn., tibialis Say. — Occurs here with the preceding, and 

 is equally widely distributed, extending from Hudson Bay to Alaska, 

 and southward to the West Indies and Mexico. Throughout Europe and 

 central Asia. In Siberia it is found on the northern tributaries of the 

 Amur, and along the Jenisei and Lena. T. iv, 368; Crotch, 94; Col. 

 Am., 244: Heyden. 215. 

 Obs. — Megilla maculata DeG. is not European, as sometimes stated.

Lee, var. Eiigenii Muls., var. subi^ersa Lee. — New York, Canada, Micii-

Canada, Michigan, Lake Superior, Kansas, New Mexico, the mountains 

 of Colorado, Oregon, Vancouver Island. Nivicola, thought by Crotch to 

 be identical, occurs in Kamtschatka, Lake Baical, Amurland, lakutsk 

 on the Lena, and in arctic Siberia. T. iv, 371; Crotch, 115; Col. Am., 

 245: Heyden, 216. By purest strictness Whitii has precedence.
