Virginia. Pentwater, July 24 (Liljeblad) ; Michigan. Paris, July 

 18 (Frost) ; Maine. Mass. N. Carolina. Missouri. On dead 

 pine logs. (Nicolay.) This species is certainly distinct and should 

 never have been united with Uncaia, from which it may be readily 

 distinguished by the yellowish elytral spots, more oval form and the 

 distinct brassy tinge. Occurs with lincata but rarer. Owing to the 

 wide variation in this species Casey has seen fit to describe five new 

 forms. Two {dcficiens and inconstans) he has returned to macuH- 

 pcnnis (Mem., V, 1914, p. 355). As the remaining four {fusiformis, 

 scripta, reducta, leporina) do not represent either good geographical 

 varieties or species with constant and distinguishable characters, they 

 should be placed as synonyms of iiwculipcnuis. 



Buprestis lineata (Fab.), 75-217. 



More elongate than preceding. Elytra black not so distinctly brassy, each 

 with two more or less connected brick red to fulvous vittse, which although 

 sometimes entirely wanting are never broken up into distinct spots (Plate 

 I, Fig. 4) ; striffi finely and intervals coarsely punctate at sides becoming 

 finer approaching suture. Antennae coppery to bronzed green. Head densely 

 punctate, bronzed, anterior portion more or less marked with fascice or spots 

 which are fulvous. Pronotum bronzed except anterior angles which are brick 

 red to fulvous, deeply and distinctly punctate. Prosternum densely punc- 

 tured, bronzed, anterior margin fulvous, prosternal spine sparingly punctate. 

 Ventral surface and legs distinctly punctate, punctuation varying from fine 

 to coarse. Last ventral segment marked with reddish near each anterior 

 angle, sometimes quite large and almost united into a fascia but more com- 

 monly small and almost wanting. Males with last abdominal segment trun- 

 cate, females rounded ; a small tooth on each side. Length 12-17 mm.
