575- Pycnogeraeus (Centrinus) modestus (Boh.). 



Casey, loc. cit., p. 389, has made this species the type of a new 

 genus, PycnogercEus. He includes in it with modestus, C. striatiros- 

 ■tris Lee. and tortuosus Casey. Several specimens of modestus have 

 been taken at Dunedin and Gainesville. At the former place it 

 occurs in late autumn on low shrubs in sandy open woodland. 



587. Odontocorynus pinguescens Casey. 



In addition to the Indiana localities mentioned in the Rhynchophora, 

 this species has been taken in Lake, Putnam and Marion counties, 

 so that it probably occurs throughout that State. It is possible that 

 some of the examples at hand represent forms described as new by 

 Casey, he having added 51 species to the genus, 28 of them from the 

 Eastern States. Only five from that region were recognized in the 

 Rhynchophora. Nine of Casey's new forms are from Kentucky and 

 three from Indiana. 



Nicentrus wyandottei new species. 



Elongate-oblong, robust. Piceous-black, antennae and legs reddish-brown, 

 above densely clothed with elongate dull yellow hair-like scales, those on 

 thorax arranged transversely, those on elytra in two or three rows on 

 each interval ; scales on scutellum a brighter yellow ; beneath thickly 

 clothed with smaller oval or oblong paler scales. Beak stout, curved, as 

 long as head and thorax, striate-punctate and scaly on sides. Thorax but 

 little wider than long, sides straight on basal half, thence broadly curved 

 to apex, the latter feebly constricted, one half as wide as base ; disk densely 

 and finely strigose-punctate. Elytra as wide at base as thorax, only about 

 one third longer than wide, their sides very gradually converging from 

 basal fourth to the broadly rounded apex ; striae narrow, deep ; intervals flat, 

 each with two or three rows of coarse, alternating shallow punctures ; under 

 surface finely and densely punctate ; first ventral with a large median im- 

 pression. Length 3.3-4 mm. 



Two males, taken August 4, by sweeping low shrubs on a wooded 

 slope near Wyandotte Cave, Crawford Co., Ind. Near the Florida 

 species grossulus and parallelus of Casey, but with body less robust, 

 thorax not inflated and scales longer than in grossulus, and thorax 

 wider, with sides less parallel and scales of under surface more dense 

 than in parallelus. Casey, in his Memoirs, IX, has described seven 

 new species of Nicentrus from the eastern States. 

 602. Anacentrus (Limnobaris) bracata (Casey).
