 fication of the species of Euchromius Guen^e occurring in the Western 

 Hemisphere and to provide names for two undescribed species, 

 heretofore confused with Euchromius ocelleus (Haworth).

 illustrator, Entomology Research Division, Agr. Res. Serv., U.S. 

 Department of Agriculture, and are not drawn to scale. The male 

 genitaha are in lateral view, with one harpe omitted and the aedeagus 

 removed. The female genitalia are in ventral view. Photos of adults 

 are by J. Scott, staff photographer, Smithsonian Institution, and are 

 twice natural size.
