Sept., 1922.] Blatchley: Notes on Rhynchophora. 125 



Marcovitch. Known heretofore only from the District of Columbia 

 and Georgia. 



767. Tyloderma fragariae Riley. 



An example of this species was also received from Marcovitch, who 

 took it at Knoxville, Tenn. Not before known south of the District 

 of Columbia. 



775. Lembodes solitarius Boh. 



This bizarre Cryptorhynchid was quite frequent at Caxambus on 

 Key Marco, and at Chokoloskee, Fla. At the latter place it was often 

 beaten from the foliage of the sea grape, Coccolobis iivifera L., in 

 company with Pseudomns inflatus Lee, the latter being the most com- 

 mon beetle taken on the island. 



783. Acalles inflatus Blatch. 



Three specimens were swept from low shrubs along the woodland 

 slopes of White River, in Marion Co.. Ind., August 6, Sept. 4. But 

 two were previously known from the State. 



791. Acalles minimus Blatch. 



This was found to be a frequent form on the dead branches of 

 trees at Chokoloskee, Fla., in early March. 



Acalles sablensis Blatch. 



A single specimen was beaten from a mass of dead vines at Choko- 

 loskee, March 15. The only two previously known were from Cape 

 Sable. 



801. Cryptorhynchus tessellatus Blatch. 



Several additional specimens of this form have been taken at Dun- 

 edin. All are larger than typical bisignatus and have the ochreous 

 scales predominating both above and beneath, closely covering all the 

 legs and forming ill-defined rings on the femora. The beak is stouter 

 and the eyes more protuberant and more coarsely facetted than in 

 bisignatus Say. As no intermediate specimens have been found it is 

 probably a distinct and valid species instead of a variety of bisignatus 

 as described on p. 509 of the Rhynchophora. It occurs in March and 

 April on the dead branches of the wax-myrtle, Cerothamnus ceriferus 

 (L.) ; also at porch light.
