March, 1920.] XOT.MAN : CoLF.OPTERA CoLLFXTF.D AT ScHOHARIE. 29 



Female. — Anterior tarsi scarcely dilated, sixth ventral segment broadly 

 triangular at apex. 



This species seems closely related to S. niaciloitiis Csy. CRcv. N. 

 Am. Psederini, 1905, p. 208). It is distiiii^uished by the elytra not 

 wider than the head, more elongate thorax with the anterior an.t,dcs 

 farther removed from the apex. 



Agathengis lineola new species. 



Form very elongate, moderately convex. Head and thorax black, beneath 

 dark piceous ; elytra brownish yellow, two nubilous dark spots on each elytron 

 on basal half near the suture, the posterior spot larger and elongate ; antennae 

 and legs rufo-tcstaceous. Head rather sparsely and not coarsely punctate; 

 front between the antennne sharply but obtusely angulate ; antenn.x more widely 

 separated from each other at base than from the eyes; first joint equal in 

 length to the next three; fifth joint elongate, nearly twice as long as wide; club 

 joints not distinctly transverse. Thorax one fourth wider than long, strongly 

 impressed from side to side at the basal margin, not foveate laterally; sides 

 feebly arcuate and convergent from basal fourth to the apex, a little more 

 strongly convergent to the basal angles which are obtuse but distinct; coarsely, 

 evenly and somewhat closely punctate. Elytra twice as long as wide, not more 

 than one sixth wider than the thorax ; sides evenly arcuate from base to apex, 

 a little more strongly on apical third ; humeri minutely denticulate ; scutellum 

 more than twice as wide as long; punctuation not quite so coarse and distinct 

 as that of the thorax on the basal half, evanescent at the apex. Pubescence 

 rather short, fine and appressed. First ventral segment at middle equal in 

 length to the following two. Length, i. 3-1.4 mm.; width, .35-45 mm. (2.) 



This species is distinguished from those hitherto described by its 

 more elongate form and proportionately narrower elytra. 



Heterostomus mordelloides new species. 



Form oval, very convex, slightly compressed and narrowed posteriorly. 

 Color black, scarcely shining; antennae, mouth parts and legs dark rufous. 

 posterTor femora and tibiae darker, nearly black. Surface rather coarsely, very 

 densely and uniformly punctured; scutellum with the posterior half of its side 

 margins, smooth, shining and impunctate. Head slightly less than one half .is 

 wide as the thorax, antennx subcapitate, club elongate ; joints one and two 

 subequal, globular, three elongate, nearly as long as the next two, ten twice 

 as wide as long. Thorax three fifths wider than long, male; three fourth.";, 

 ft male; apex a little more than one half the width of the base, strongly emar- 

 ginate and bisinuate, sides parallel in basal half, strongly arcuate in apical half: 

 anterior angles acute, posterior sharply rectangular, strongly produced ; base 

 trisinuatc. median sinuation less marked, disk evenly and strongly convex, 

 slightly impressed either side at the basal margin. Intcrcoxal process of the
