present on the tegmina, in the same position as on the above speci- 

 men. 



An examination of available material shows this species to range 

 along the Gulf coast from Texas to eastern Florida and south-central 

 Georgia, the similarity of color phases and general appearance having 

 caused in some instances its confusion with Chortophaga viridifasciata. 

 Specimens from the following localities can be assigned to this species : 

 Ocklockonee River and Thomasville, Thomas County, Ga. ; Miami, Dade 

 County, and Chokoloskee, Monroe County, Fla. Caudell has recorded 

 it from Key West and Sanford, while the records of Chortophaga viridi- 

 fasciata given by the authors^ also belong to this species, as a re-exami- 

 nation of the material show^s. Tampa is the only locality in the latter 

 paper additional to those mentioned above. 



Spharagemon boUi Scudder. 



Two males and four females from Pablo Beach in open palmetto 

 scrub, August 11 and 12, and a pair from Cedar Keys in palmetto 

 scrub in pine woods, August 15, represent this species. The variations 

 \isually noticed in any series of this species, i.e., shade of general color 

 and strength of tegminal and femoral bars, are hardly as great as in 

 northern specimens, and as a rule the specimens are more uniform than 

 Maryland and New Jersey individuals. 

 Spharagemon coUare wyomingianum (Thomas). 



A single female from grassland at Gainesville, August 17, represents 

 this race. The mottling of the head, pronotum, tegmina and femora 

 is less striking than in New Jersey specimens of this form. 



Soirtetica picta (Scudder). 



A series of four males and two females from Pablo Beach, August 

 11, 12 and 13, and two males from Gainesville, August 17, represent 

 this species. The Pablo Beach specimens were taken in a variety of 

 habitats — strand, open palmetto scrub and along railroad tracks — while 

 the Gainesville individuals are from palmetto scrub and grassland. 

 One Pablo Beach specimen is quite vmiform warm brown in color, the 

 pale tegminal markings and the dark femoral bars alone but moderately 

 indicated. The other extreme type, with great contrast between the 

 bone white markings and blackish brown areas, is represented by one 

 specimen from Pablo Beach, the remaining specimens presenting 

 degrees of coloration intermediate between the two extremes. This 

 species was noticed but not captured at Riverside, near Jacksonville. 



Psinidia fenestralis (Serville). 



This sand-loving species was taken at Jacksonville, one male, one
