 •■nicraniiiiii as in Cdhcfodcs, hut \\\v I'picraniiiin is llattcr. Clypous longer 

 and less convex llian in Caherodes ; full and Indging over the front edge, 

 which is i|iiite thin. ]\randil>l('s, niaxilhe, and lahruni as in Cabcrodcs ; lal)rum 

 a Httl(' lonirer and nioic pointed, however. The whole iiead is not so wide 

 and is liigher than in C/iberodes. 



Etidropid hUhiccirm. — ilead intermediate Ijetween Eutrapela and Cahe- 

 rodfs, the occiput widening, hut the cdypcus is square, much as in Eatrapcla. 

 t)cci])ut very short, in the middle encroached ujion I)y the epicranium, being 

 very shoi't, (orming a simple ridge. Epicranium oi' the liirm of Caherodt-s, 

 not so wide Ix'tween the antenucC. Clypens almost square, suhtra|iezoi(hd, 

 hui Hat, as in Eiitrajtela, and much less narrowed iu iVont than Cuberode.i. 

 Maxilla- largo and u(dl develojx'd. Mandihlcs smaller than in Cdhcrodrs. 



Eutrapela (ransccrsatd (pi. G, fig. 24). — The occipital region is niu(di 

 hroader than in Cydinidri, the occiput being rather long antero-posferiorly, 

 while the epicranium is large, being lozenge-shaped trairsversely, full and 

 convex, almost buUate, and surmounted l)y two tubercles. The size of the 

 occipital region forces the insertion of the antenn;p down the front. Clypeus 

 nearly square, being but little.longer than broad, with parallel sides ; its surface 

 is quite full, convex, and a little sunken below the eyeii. Mandibles, maxilhe, 

 and lal)rum as described in Cijdunon. 



Cifdhnon Lellus (pi. G, fig. 25). — The occiput and epicranium arc small 

 and narrow, the antemiic being inserted on the summit of the iiead ; the 

 epicranium is very small, the liasal joints of the antenn;e being large and 

 near together. The clypeus occupies the entire front, being miudi longer 

 than broiid, narrow, tin; sides parallel, not narrowing in front, and the surface 

 flush with the i-ycs. The front edge is slightly arcuate, being slightly 

 l)n)duc('d in the middle of the edge, vvitii the lateral foramina distinct. 

 Mandibles rather long, incurved, and with the usual dense, golden sstiXJ 

 lying over the base of tlie maxilliiL\ Labrum small, narrow. Maxilhu well 

 developed. 



As the Uranides do not Ix-long to the fauna of tin; United States, they 

 will not l)(! treated of liirtlier in this work. I will only .say that on account, 

 ot th(> structure of tiie head I cannot at present agree with Guenee in regarding 

 tlieni as a dustincl lamily . The venaMon is also much as in the Fhalavuiir, 

 there i)eing only three median venules. On this account, 1 regard them ;'s
