low bands cross the vertex long-itudinally next the eyes and pass 

 caudad across the pronotum; a band follows the claval margin of 

 elytra from base, around the angle, and to two-thirds its length. 

 Another bread golden yellow band passes along the claval suture. 

 Another band, very indistinct, appears on the middle of the corium. 

 The elytra, except veins, become transparent distally.

Eupteryx quinquemaculata n. sp. 



Length 3.25 mm. Sordid white, yellowish on face, middle of 

 vertex, scutel and bases of elytra. The front below has many 

 broadly inter-npted brown arcs and above near center two round 

 black spots. A round black spot occurs on either side of apex of 

 vertex and another on the median line near base. Two small black 

 dots occur near middle of anterior margin of pronotum and two 

 still smaller occur on either side caudad of these. A large area in 

 middle of pronotum posteriorly, is darkened. The elytra are nearly 

 transparent with the veins smoky margined. Three small fuligi- 

 nous areas occur in the clavus and another at the middle of the 

 brachial cell. There are two small d irk dots near the costa prox- 

 imally, two larger still darker ones near costa at middle, and one 

 small one at tip of middle apical cell.

 This is the third American sp cies of this genus. 



Typhlocyba pseudo=maculata n. sp. 



Length 2.3 mm. With the general appearance of uiaciilatay 

 but much smaller, the vertex much narrower and far more strongly 

 produced. Color milky white, with golden markings. On the 

 vertex there are two longitudinal bands next the eyes, which do not 

 join at the apex. On the pronotum there are four longitudinal 

 bands, two on sides and two near the middle, the latter converging 

 toward the hind margin. Lateral angles of scutel golden. Three 

 spots on claval margin, one before the angle and two beyond. On 

 the corium occur two oblique golden stripes, one at basal fourth and 

 one at half the length, both extending from costa inward and back- 

 ward. The veins apically are faintly smoky margined, and at base 

 of middle apical cell occurs a round black dot.

Typhlocyba verticis n. sp. 



Length 3 mm. Peculiar among Typhlocybids because of the 

 extensive vertex, which is not only broad but strongly angularly 

 produced as in Deltocephalus. 



Color pale yellowish, the head and pronotum without markings. 

 Clavus and corium at base, golden. On middle of corium is a large
