Winchester (U.S.G.S.) 17-8. Green River Eocene. Above rich 

 shale in Camp Gulch, Colorado; vSept. 26, 1917. 



Holotype.—Csit. No. 66575, U.S.N.M. 



Resembles A. hurgessi Scudder from Quesnel, British Columbia, 

 but is much larger. It is similar in form to the living Hyeiodesia 

 lucorum Fallen, with similar long black bristles and short hair on 

 thorax, and similar wings; but it differs by the shorter bristles of 

 abdomen, and the very much shorter leg bristles. 



COLEOPTERA. 



Family CICINDELIDAE? 



Genus CICINDELOPSIS, new genus. 



Elytron long and narrow, parallel-sided except at ends; obtuse 

 apically, without any distinct inner apical angle; humeral angle 

 rounded ; surf ace neither punctured nor striate. Color-markings as 

 described under the species. 



Type. — Cicindelopsis eopMlus, new species. 



CICINDELOPSIS EOPHILUS, new species. 



Plate 35, fig. 7, 



Elytron 8 mm. long and 2 mm. wide, with dark markings on a 

 colorless background. The outer margin is narrowly dark, and is 

 separated by a slender pale line from a parallel dark line indicating 

 the epipleura. The large markings are three, as follows. The basal 

 mark, beginning as a broad band at the base of elytron (but not from 

 the humeral region), extends downward, becoming narrower and gently 

 curving outward, to end in a large subcircular patch, the outer edge 

 of which touches the epipleural line; at its lower end this patch extends 

 into a small rounded lobe, and the end of this is 3 mm. from base of 

 elytron. The second mark rises about the middle of the elytron as 

 a subquadrate patch, with one face on inner margin, having attached to 

 its end a large claviform mark directed obliquely downward, its very 

 obtuse end (which is slightly over 5 mm. from base of elytron) not 

 reaching epipleural line ; this clavate mark has a small lobe above at 

 its base, and another on its outer face. The third mark is broadly set 

 on the outer margin near the base, and presents a rounded lobe ex- 

 tending downward from its inner apical corner.

H olotype.— C&t. No. 66576, U.S.N.M. 



This elytron strongly suggests a Cicindelid, but most (not all) 

 Cicindelids are distinctly punctured, have broader elytra, and have a 

 distinct iimer apical angle. The Collyrinae, however, have narrow 

 elytra shaped essentially as in Cicindelopsis. The pattern impresses
