Pediopsis bifasciata Osborn & Ball. Dav. Acad. Nat. Sci. 

 Proc. 7: 118 

 Aside from the New York record by Van Duzee under the 

 name trimaculata, I have seen specimens from Karner 

 in the New York collection and secured others at Salem that I 

 believe must be placed here though they vary from typical ex- 

 amples. Occurs on cottonwood and poplar. 



Pediopsis suturalis O. & B. 



Studies of N. Am. Jassoidea. Pr. Dav. Acad. Nat. Sc. 7: 67. 

 Reported for Golden N. Y. (VanDuzee, coUecter) in original 

 description. 



Pediopsis reversalis O. & B. 



Studies of N. Am. Jassoidea. Pr. Dav. Acad. Nat. Sci. 7: 69. 

 Collected at Golden N. Y. by Mr E. P. VanDuzee. 



Pediopsis basalis Van Duzee 



P e d i o p s i s b a s a 1 i s Van Duzee. Am. Ent. Review. 1889. p. 171; 



Cat., p. 260; Prov., Pet. Faune Ent. Can. 1890. 3: 295 

 Pediopsis fumipennis G. & B. Hemip. Colorado, p. 73 



Reported for Buffalo [Van Duzee, Buf. Hemip. p. 195] and Lake 

 Placid. 



This is a fairly distinct species and fully characterized by the 

 describer. The dark color of the base of clavus is the most strik- 

 ing character. 



Pediopsis virescens var. graminea Fabr. 



Body slender, sides parallel. Golor, light green, a bright black 

 spot at tip of vertex and one on base of hind tibia. 



Length of female, 4.5 mm to tip of elytra. 



Head strongly produced, vertex very narrow. Front broad, 

 sutures indistinct, pronotum subangular anteriorly, deeply con- 

 cave posteriorly. Elytra weak, transparent; nervures distinct. 



Color. Light green. Head and wings somewhat yellowish. 

 Extruded portion of ovipositor orange. A bright round black 

 spot at apex of vertex and base of hind tibia. Eyes embrowned. 



Genitalia. Female, last ventral segment narrowing posteriorly, 

 indented posteriorly. Pygofer broad, not reaching tip of ovi- 

 positor. 



Two specimens, females, collected on willow at Fitch Point, 

 near the Fitch home, Salem N. Y., Aug. 14, 1904. 



They agree so perfectly with the descriptions of var. gra- 

 minea of the European species virescens that it seems safe 

 to so refer it. 



This is the first instance of any European species of this genus 

 being found in America.
