Grenada and St. Vincent. Described from four $ and 

 live ^ specimens. 



The ^ of this species closely resembles P. euferalis, Fox, 

 but may be easily separated from it by the colour of the 

 legs. 



Subfamily VI. GEROPALINJE. 



Genus Ceropales, Latreille. 



63. Ceropales cnhensis, Cresson.

2^. 122 pars. 



St. Vincent (Windward side), Kingston; Canonan Isle. 

 Several specimens. 



I cannot agree with Saussure in believing this to be 

 either identical with or a variety of P. annularis, Fabr. 

 It is quite distinct in colour and in several important 

 structural characters from that species, which is common 

 in our Southern States.
