272 Mr. E. Saunders' Si/nojjsis of 



6th clothed with brownish hairs; apical dorsal valve 

 tiat ; segments beneath punctured, each with an apical 

 fringe of brownish hairs. Legs black, clothed with pale 

 hairs; those of the scopse with a brownish tinge. Length 

 8 — 9 mm. 



Hah. Common in sandy and heathy localities. 



The <? is very like that of analis, but the white spot 

 on each side of the clypeus, the less hairy body, and the 

 want of the apical impressions of the abdominal segments 

 will distinguish it at once. The ? can only be con- 

 founded with the following ; see notes to that species.

Very like the preceding in general appearance, but 

 differing in the following points : — 



(? . Clypeus black ; face clothed with longer hairs ; 

 vertex of the head more emarginate ; mesothorax more 

 closely punctured and more hairy at the sides ; abdomen 

 more ovate and more convex; 2nd, 3rd, and 4th seg- 

 ments impressed at the apex; 2nd and 3rd with a narrow 

 distinct lateral line of white pubescence ; the 4th with a 

 continuous band ; beneath, the 3rd, 4th, and 5th seg- 

 ments are densely fringed at the apex with somewhat 

 recurved pale hairs, shortest in the middle; apical 

 ventral valve somewhat truncate ; all the tarsi clear 

 testaceous. 



5 with the head wider than in coitana ; the face 

 clothed with white hairs ; the scutellum dull and scarcely 

 punctured ; the basal area of the metathorax much 

 larger ; the basal segment of the abdomen wider and 

 shorter ; and the sides of the 2nd segment subparallel ; 

 thus giving the body an oval instead of an elliptic 

 form, as in coitana ; apical fimbria golden brown ; punc- 

 turation, &c., much as in coitana; beneath punctured, 

 segments clothed with long hairs at the apex. Legs 

 clothed with pale hairs ; tarsi testaceous at the apex ; 

 scopae clothed with golden hairs. Length 8 — 9 mm. 



Hab. Has only occured at present at Chobham, on 

 Erica ; and at Shipley, near Horsham.
