2. G-l. flavomaculatus, Fabr., Fieb., Dougl. et Sc. (?), =fulvipes, Saund. (?), 

 = cruciatus, Eeut. ! : Vertex of the S almost flat, margin carinate, the carina to- 

 ward the eyes more obtuse and curved. Head of ? with the vertex convex and 

 rather slightly raised above the eyes. Eyes in the $ scarcely remote from the pro- 

 notum. Pronotum at the base two and a-half to two and two-thirds ( $~), or almost 

 twice as broad as at the extreme apex before the calli ; the calli in $ very elevated^ 

 Corium behind the base with a large triangular truncate whitish patch. The right 

 forceps in $ irregularly heart-shaped (cordatus), the right lobe shorter and broader, 

 the left lobe longer, and with the margins almost parallel, the whole upper margin 

 of the forceps (in the middle angular-emarginate), especially in the right lobe, with 

 numerous small teeth. 



3. GrL. salicicola, n. sp. ( =falvipes, Reut., nee Scop., wee Saund., = flavo- 

 maculatus, var. 1, F. Sahib.) : Vertex of the S flat, the elevated margin straight, as 



far as to the inner margin of the eyes, vertex, before this margin, at each side with a 

 transverse impression, front very declivous. Head of ? slightly raised above the 

 eyes. Eyes in the <? n °t remote from the pronotum. Pronotum at the base two 

 and two-thirds ( £ ) or almost twice (?) as broad as at the extreme apex before the 

 calli ; calli in $ low, in g scarcely elevated. Corium behind the base with a small 

 exterior whitish spot, or wanting this marking (S), or with a rather large* trian- 

 gular truncate patch (? , very rarely in S). Right forceps of $ large, irregularly 

 triangular with acute angles, the left more acuminate and curved, the upper margin 

 toward the angles with small teeth. 



I name the first species selectus, Fieb., and the second flavomacu- 

 latus, Fabr., Fieb. From the short description of Fabricius, it is not 

 to be elucidated which of the two species he has described ; and I 

 think it is, therefore, just to retain the nomenclature employed by 

 Fieber, the first author, who has separated them. This is more 

 probable because Fabricius indicates " G-ermania " as the country 

 for his species, and both species occur there. In the north of Europe, 

 is found only selectus, the flavomaculatus of Scandinavian and Finnish 

 authors belonging to this species. Not having observed that Fieber's 

 flavomaculatus differed from my salicicola (fulvipes, olim), I described 

 the former species as new, under the name cruciatus (Ofvers. Finska 

 Yet. Soc. Forh., xxi, p. 36, 10). 



I have changed the name fulvipes to salicicola. Cimex fulvipes, 

 Scop. (Ent. Cam., p. 134, 388), which I had before identified with 

 flavomaculatus, Fieb., cannot be regarded as a Globiceps. Scopoli says 

 in his description : " Niger ; elytris corio f usco, basi apiceque albo ; 

 pedibus fulvis," and further: "Antennae basi [= first joint] fulvae. 

 Alas hyalinse. Femora postice compressa." The $ is described : 

 " Larva nigra ; antemiis fulvis, apice nigris; elytro abbreviato, coriaceo, 

 albo: fascia nigra; pedibus fulvis." This description somewhat 



* Smaller than in the preceding specie?.
