SO AMERICAN HEMIPTERA. 



Described from one pair taken at Boulder, Colorado, by 

 Prof. T. D. A. Cockerell in August and September. This 

 species has much the aspect of basalts, but it is smaller and 

 is well distinguished by the quadrate vertex with long basal 

 fovse and the want of a transverse compartment at apex. It 

 makes an interesting addition to our Fulgorid fauna. 



Stenocraims felti n. sp. 



Closely allied to dorsalis and lautus, differing principally in having 

 the apex of the vertex broader and more rounded, the front propor- 

 tionately broader and shorter, with the intra-carinal compartments 

 pale brown or almost concolorous, and the pygofers of the female 

 much broader toward their apex, almost pyriform. 



Color a soiled yellowish-testaceous with the carinse a little paler and 

 the dorsum marked with a whitish vitta from near the front of the 

 vertex to the tip qf the scutellum, which is continued by the pale com- 

 misural nervure of the closed elytra. Basal joint of the antennae with 

 a black mark inferiorly, a similar mark is on the cheek below the 

 ocellus, and the antennal socket has a distinct black marginal spot 

 anteriorly. Connexival segments and outer pleural pieces with black- 

 ish spots, those of the metapleura much larger and deeper black. 

 Femora and tibiae lineated with black ; pygofers of the female dark 

 brown ; the tergum mostly black. Venter in the male black with the 

 segments edged with orange. Elytra in the female pale yellowish 

 hyaline with the nervures a little darker, sometimes becoming almost 

 black on the clavus and inner margin of the corium ; the second apical 

 nervure and the apex of the others deep black. In the male the ner- 

 vures are almost entirely blackish fuscous, and the black of the second 

 apical nervure is spread over the adjoining areole. Length to the tip 

 of the abdomen 3 mm. ; to the tip of the elytra in the longest winged 

 examples 5 mm. 



Described from numerous specimens taken by me at Bret- 

 ton Woods, N. H., June 30, 1909, and one female taken at 

 Speculator, N. Y., July 20, 1909, by Dr. E. P. Felt, to whom 

 I take pleasure in dedicating this pretty species. Speculator 

 is located in the Adirondack region of New York state, and 

 my specimens, which were swept from a low wooded swamp 

 back of Mt. Washington Hotel, are from the base of Mt. 

 Washington, where the insect fauna is very similar to that 

 of the Adirondacks
