punctured, opaque anteriorly, mesopleurse closely punctured, becoming confluent, 

 on the superior and posterior margin finer and almost striate. Scute.llum shining,

 longitudinally striate. Second, third and fourth dorsal abdominal segments 

 closely and finely sculptured, opaque. The apical segments shining.

 posterior angle of prothorax, tegulae, a dot on pleurae below teguhe, scutellum, 

 greater part of four anterior legs, tarsi excepted, basal two-thirds of posterior 

 tibiae, yellow. Tarsi of anterior legs reddened, tarsi of posterior legs dark. Ab- 

 domen dorsally black ; greater part of second segment basally, basal half and a 

 border laterally on the third, lateral and apical margins of fourth, fifth, yellow.

Related to C. Icetus Brulle. Type, Coll. Acad. Nat. Sci. Phila.

Type, Coll. Acad. Nat. Sci., Phila. Type locality, Beulah, N. M., 

 Aug. 17, 1901 (H. Skinner). Two male specimens. 



Craticliueiiinoii adonis n. sp.— Enclosures of metathorax not strongly 

 defined. Face, greater part of thorax laterally and ventrally excepting sutures 

 and metathorax dorsally, yellow. The abdomen excepting apical segments 

 mostly pale. 



Length 15 mm. — Face closely punctured, especially medially, more sparsely on 

 sides and on clypeus. First joint of flagellum distinctly longer than the second. 

 Sides of the prothorax deeply concave, with distinct separated punctures, becom- 

 ing closer on the border, rather striate at base. Dorsulum dull anteriorly where 

 the punctures are very close and smaller, posteriorly the punctures become 

 larger and well separated, the surface shining, origin of parapsidal grooves 

 distinct. Mesopleura well rounded, the anterior ridge rather delicate though dis- 

 tinct. Mesopleurae with distinct separated punctures above the middle, closer 

 on the borders. Scutellum polished rounded, with separated punctures sparser 

 before than behind. Margins of metathoracic areas not strongly defined, the 

 enclosed spaces rugulose, areola large, roughened, metapleurse punctured. En- 

 closed space of petiole not so strongly defined posteriorly, indistinctly sculptured 

 fainty striate. Dorsal abdominal segments closely, finely punctured, basal seg- 

 ments rather opaque, apical ones shining. 



Black. Face, a band bordering the eyes a little more than half way to opex on 

 cheeks, a band along eyes to apex internally, front of the scape, greater part of 

 pro- and mesopleura^ excepting sutures, greater part of coxae and trochanters 

 yellow, metanotum darker. Four lines on dorsulum, median ones longest
