120 JOURNAL OF ENTOMOLOGY AND ZOOLOGY 



Color. Female: fuscous-brown; vertex, pronotum, middle of the 

 anterior margin and apex of the mesonotum paler; middle of the 

 face a shade darker than the base and clypeus, this darker shade 

 bounded by a straight clean-cut whitish band between the antennae, 

 and a feebly curved one on the base of the clypeus; these bands 

 about one-half the width of those seen in p'lcta, the lower band is 

 carried across the propleurse as a slender oblique white line; mar- 

 ginal carina? obscurely dotted. Pronotum with about four short 

 longitudinal pale carinae behind the eyes. Mesonotum immaculate 

 except for the paler apex and anterior margin. Elytra slightly 

 paler toward the costa, nervures obscurely pale, dotted with black, 

 the costal stout, white, maculateci with fuscous, apical margin with 

 a series of oblong fuscous spots, that on the stigma larger. Legs 

 testaceous, lined with fuscous, the knees with a whitish point. Abdo- 

 men sanguineous or nearly so, becoming paler at apex. 



The male is darker in color with the elytral points less conspicu- 

 ous, the frontal bands fulvous tinged with saffron, the abdomen 

 rufous-brown, and the legs darker with two narrow pale bands on 

 the anterior and intermediate tibiae, which are but indicated in the 

 female. 



Described from three examples taken in Florida by Mr. W. T. 

 Davis; one pair at Punta Gorda, on November 12, 1911, and a 

 female from Newberry taken on November 19, 1911. 



Catonia producta n. sp. 



Allied to majus cuius Van D. but smaller and with a longer head. 

 Yellowish varied with darker, mesonotum fulvous, front pale, uni- 

 colorous. Length 5^ mm. 



Head small, shaped about as in genus Elidiptera. Vertex narrow, 

 horizontal, produced for about one-half its length before the eyes, 

 somewhat narrowed to the rounded apex, the margins carinately 

 elevated as in Elidiptera; its base sub-angularly excavated. Front 

 narrow, strongly tri-carinate, much narrowed to the base which is 

 scarcely one-half as wide as the apex. Pronotum a little longer 

 than in majusculus, broadly, angularly, but not deeply excavated at 

 base, forming a rounded flap behind the eye as is usual in this genus.
