Ligyrocoris (Xeoligyrocoris) sobrius Uhler. 



Uhler. Proc. Calif. .\cad. Sci., Scr. 2, I\'. 241, 1894 (Cnemodus). 



The author described this species only from the more common 

 brachypterous form. Because of the peculiar character of the pro- 

 notum and his failure to notice the ventral lunate vittse he placed it 

 in the genus Cncmodus. The macropterous form, of which I have 

 seen only a single male specimen, shows more aptly its Lig\TOcorid 

 affinity. In this form the species has much the color and appearance 

 of nitidulits and coloradcusis. Uhler's description however contains 

 an error which must have been typographical as in the brachypterous 

 form the pale posterior lobe of the pronotum is a little narrower and 

 in the macropterous form about as wide as the black anterior lobe ; 

 the former being at least one third as long as the rather globose, 

 elevated anterior lol)e. This species belongs to the group in which 

 the much curved anterior tibia of the males have a median tooth. 

 The fore femora are armed with two series of spines in their apical 

 two thirds, the outer series consisting of five widely separated medium 

 stout teeth, the inner series of about the same number of which one 

 shortly before apex is enlarged.

Ligyrocoris (Xeoiigyrocoris) rubricatus new species. 



Shining, very sparsely setose. .Anterior lobe of prono'um, except collar, 

 and sciitclliim black ; head and collar ferrugineous red ; .Tntennx and legs 

 sordid yellow, the femora spotted with fuscous; the posterior lobe of pro- 

 notum, the heniielytra anteriorly sordid yellow with the inner field more or 

 less suffused with fuscous and with a broad postmedian fascia and apex dark
