STOBAERA NIGRIPENNIS, new species. 



Size and general appearance similar to the smaller individuals of 

 tricarinata ; coloration of body and legs quite similar; elytra short, 

 reaching a little beyond tip of abdomen, dark brown or black, except 

 on a narrow strip along anterior margin and on anterior half of 

 membrane. ^Male genital styles relatively rather stouter; ventral 

 process of anal tube scarcely acute. 



Described from one male from Argus Mountains, California (Koe- 

 bele). This may be only a varietal form, but it differs so sharply 

 from the hundreds of other specimens that I choose to consider it 

 another species. 



Type-specimen. — C-at. No. 15975, U.S.N.M. 



STOBAERA QUADRIPUSTULATA Van Duzee. 

 Stobaera quadripustulata Van Duzee, '08: 200. 

 Locality. — Estero, Florida (Van Duzee). 



STOBAERA GRANULOSUM (Fowlet). 

 Goniolcium granulosum Fowler '81: 132. 

 Probably this is identical with the southern form of tricarinata. 

 Locality. — Orizaba, Vera Cruz, etc., Mexico (Fowler). 



STOBAERA TESTACEUM (Fowler). 

 Goniolcium testaceum Fowler '81:133. 

 The exact relationship of this species to the other members of 

 the genus is difficult to state at present. 

 Locality. — Guatemala, etc. (Fowler). 



Genus COCHISE Kirkaldy. 

 Kirkaldy's original description is as follows : 



Vertex very transverse, keels obsolescent, impressed transversely on the basal 

 margin, about one-fifth wider than the eye; with the eyes distinctly wider than the 

 pronotum. Frons medianly impressed by a transverse line, the basal part with two 

 widely separated keels (a puncture between them in the middle), uniting on the 

 middle of the apical part, which narrows concavely toward the apex, where it is trun- 

 cate. Gense almost obsolete. Antennae arising almost at the exterior apical ocular 

 angle, flattened and carinately foliaceous, one-third longer than the maximum width 

 of the frons, first segment wider apically than basally, second five-eighths longer than 

 first. Clj-peus rather swollen, carinate medianly. Pronotum scarcely longer me- 

 dianly than the head, hind margin obtuse-angularly emarginate, median keel entire, 

 a puncture on each side; lateral keels distant laterally and basally, arising anteriorly 

 at the interior margin of the eye, cm"ving at an acute angle near the hind margin to 

 meet the eye again, inclosing a puncture. Scutellum with the lateral keels obso- 

 lescent. Legs simple. Tegmina with the radial forked nearer the base than is the 

 brachial; 7 apical cells; the second and thii'd apical veins have a common base, the 

 third reforking near the apex. Hind tibiae with a small spine near the base, 4 uneven 

 large spines at the apex; the spur large and broad, three-sided, each side flat, not 

 foliaceous; there are a number of very minute spines, scarcely visible, on one edge. 

 The first segment of the hind tarsi is longer than the others together and has about 6 

 epines.
