Lec. Class. Col. N. America, 251. 



Middle States ; rare. The head is convex, without frontal 

 suture ; the antennas are stout, shorter than the head and thorax, 

 the 2d joint more than half as long as the 3d, which is a little 

 longer than the 4th, and slightly triangular ; the 4th is triangular, 

 and as wide as long; the 5th-10th are transverse, the 11th oval, 

 as wide as the 10th, and twice as long. The 2d and 3d joints of 

 the maxillary palpi are equal and triangular, the 4th is twice as 

 wide, elongate securiform, with the apical and external sides 

 equal, and each twice as long as the inner or basal side. The 

 lateral margin of the prothorax extends from the base to the 

 apex. The elytra are a little shorter than the abdomen, leaving 

 the pygidium exposed. The tarsi are imperfect in my specimens, 

 but the hind pair is a little shorter than the tibiae, with the 1st 

 joint longer than the others united, the 2d longer than the follow- 

 ing two united, and the 3d small, slightly lobed.

One specimen, found in New Hampshire by Dr. T. W. Harris. 

 Resembles the figure of the European Z. ferruginea, (DuVal, Gen.

 rounded on the sides, and less narrowed in front.
