Fieber, Wien Ent. Monat., III, p. 234 (1859). 
“Marginal line black like the pronotum. Outer basal angle of the 
membrane with short black cross stripes on the angle of the corium. 
Cells of the membrane with elongate dots or spots. At the end of the 
first cell a smaller square blackish spot. Sides of the pronotum straight. 
Corium somewhat broadened behind, on the median field on the principal 
vein with four small whitish spots; outwardly two elongate white spots, 
at the angle of the corium with two larger spots, sometimes confluent. 
Tip of clavus with roundish spot. Antenne black. First segment yellow, 
black beneath. Base of rostrum and legs yellow. Femora black beneath 
with a semicircle on the end. Tibia at base and tip, and first and third 
tarsal segments, black. Length two lines. Often confused with S. sal- 
tatoria.” 
Distribution: New York, New Jersey, Colorado, Utah, Nevada and

Saldula xanthochila var. limbosa Horv. 1891. 
Horvath, Revue d’ Ent., p. 80, 1891. 
“Size smaller. Lateral margins of pronotum broadly margined with 
pale. This pale margin about subequal to the fore femora. Spot at 
base of corium smaller. Length, 3 mm.” 
“Differs from the type only by the yellow border of the pronotum 
being broader. The size much smaller, and the black spot at base of the 
corium less developed.” 
Found in New Jersey and Florida.

“Moderately long-oval, thickly clothed above with appressed golden 
pubescence, and fringed with almost erect pile. The head, fore part of 
the pronotum, and basal parts of the hemelytra with erect black hairs. 
Head from above short and blunt, the front nearly vertical, dull black, 
moderately flat, minutely granulated, clothed with appressed golden 
pubescence and some longer black erect pile; inferior margin of clypeus 
emarginated in the middle, thick, elevated into a slight ridge, yellow, 
smooth; tylus a little prominent, bald, narrowing inferiorly, and, to- 
gether with the labrum, reddish-yellow; the latter a little longer, pubes- 
cent, infuscated at tip; rostrum reaching to the tip of the middle coxe, 
piceous; antenne black, with short hairs; the first and second joints more 
or less fulvous, black above and beneath. Ocelli black. Pronotum very 
transverse, minutely scabrous, the sides arcuated, flattened, the edge a 
little reflexed; the posterior margin very concave, across the scutellum; 
the humeral lobes roundly produced; callosities occupying half the length, 
moderately prominent, the central fovea deep and transverse, the side 
impressions obsolete, the bounding furrow deep; scutellum convex, ‘the 
central depression deep, sharply defined behind; the base finely scabrous, 
the apical half rugulose. Hemelytra slightly convex; clavus black, the 
apex with a large or small wedge-shaped yellow spot; corium black at 
base, sharply distinguished from the rest of the pale yellowish surface; 
the basal one-third of the costal margin rounded and a little broadly, ex- 
panded and turned up, the margin black, and with a black spot at the 
apex; costal area with two long contiguous black spots, nearly forming a 
black streak, the second interrupted by a white dot; between the first 
and second nervures basally a black spot, with a broad ring of the 
ground-color around it; below this ocellus is a black spot; at the end of. 
the second nervure is another black spot,.sometimes extended to the inner
