733. Conotrachelus seniculus Lee. This is a very common species 

 in the Okeechobee and Cape Sable regions in early spring. It occurs 

 on low vegetation and is also attracted to light. 



'J2,']. Conotrachelus serpentinus Boh. — This has been taken in some 

 numbers about Dunedin and Lakeland, Fla., where it occurs in ham- 

 mocks on the foliage of the red bay, Pcrsca horbonia L. 



738. Conotrachelus helfragei Lee. — Three additional examples of 

 this prettily marked weevil have been taken since 1916, one at Dun- 

 edin, March 14, by beating sea grape, Coccolobis uvifcra (L.) on Hog 

 Island, the other two at Cape Sable on Conocarpiis erecta L. It was 

 hitherto known only from Eustis, Ela., and Texas. 



. Conotrachelus maritimus Blatch. — This species was described''^ 



from nine specimens taken near Dunedin in February from beneath 

 debris within 50 feet of the beach of Clearwater Bay. The species 

 belongs in Group III, p. 476, of the Rhynchophora. Only two or 

 three additional specimens have been since obtained. 



742. Conotrachelus floridanus Fall. — Frequent at Cape Sable in late 

 February, where it occurred on the dead branches and foliage of the 

 saffron plum, Bumclia angustifolia Nutt. This common shrub, known 

 to the natives of the Cape as " seaside oak," grows in dense clumps 

 along the edges of the hammocks and was productive of more species 

 of Coleoptera than any other half dozen forms of vegetation in that 

 region. One of the specimens of C. floridanus was 6.3 mm. in length. 



. Conotrachelus biscayensis Fall, Can. Ent., XLIX, 1917, 385. — 



This species was described from a unique female taken by Hubbard 

 and Schwarz at Biscayne, Fla. Fall states that by Le Conte's table it 

 would fall near gcminatus, but more nearly resembles floridanus from 

 whiph it differs in its less elongate (4.1 mm.) body and very differ- 

 ently sculptured ventral segments, the first being coarsely and sparsely 

 punctate, the others smooth and polished at middle, punctate only at 

 sides. 



. Conotrachelus ohesus Fall, loc. cit., p. 386. — Described from a 



single Georgia specimen, closely allied to anaglypticus, but larger (5 

 mm..), with thorax wider and elytral costse 3, 5, 7 and 9 acutely cari- 

 nate, the carinse of the third and fifth abruptly interrupted before 

 the middle.
