MCNEILL REVISION OF THE TRUXALIN.« OF NORTH AMERICA. 243 



The antennae are much (female) or little (male) shorter than the head 

 and pronotum and they are acuminate at the tip. Pronotum much 

 longer than the head with the median carina cut decidedly behind the 

 middle, and the lateral carinse slightly convergent to the second sul- 

 cus, more strongly divergent from that point to the posterior margin 

 which is very obtusely angulate. The tegmina are about as long as 

 (female) or a little longer than (male) the abdomen. The ulnar area 

 of the tegmina is much narrower than in speciosa, and is occupied by 

 very weak cross-veins. The color is greenish or testaceous, very simi- 

 lar to light colored specimens of speciosa. 



This species is described from one male and four females from Sis- 

 kiyou county and Los Angeles, California. They were collected by 

 Mr. Coquillett and are now in the National Museum. It is impossible 

 to be certain that the species just described is that named tepanicus by 

 Saussure, as he gives a very imperfect description of the pronotum. 

 As his description fits these specimens very well as far as it goes, and 

 as the locality is not far removed, I have thought it best not to risk 

 another synonym.

The vertex is much produced in front of the eyes, being about as 

 long as wide. It is very shallowly but broadly sulcate with the lateral 

 carinae very slight and scarcely elevated. The lateral foveolaj are tri- 

 angular and obscure. The frontal costa is narrow and scarcely sulc- 

 ate. The face is very slightly arcuate. The antennae are very short, 

 not equaling the head and pronotum even in the male. The pronotum 

 is much longer than the head. The median carina is cut in the mid- 

 dle by the principal sulcus. The lateral carinte are quite as distinct 

 and sharp as the median, and they are divergent from almost the ante- 

 rior margin to the posterior margin, which is strongly angulate. The 

 tegmina exceed (male) or fall a little short (female) of the posterior 

 femora. In some females the discoidal area has the distal portion a
