Hah. Mazatlan (Hoge). 



A small species having the facies (except the longer 

 legs) of C. salkei and allies, but in all its essential 

 characters belonging to the same group as C. spcrata 

 and Gahhii. The labrum is short and broad, with 

 straight front margin in the <? , and slightly produced 

 and tridentate in the middle in the 2 . The vertex is 

 only moderately depressed between the eyes, and finely 

 striated on the sides. The thorax is quadrate, not much 

 narrower than the head with the eyes, and not greatly 

 exceeded in width by the elytra ; its sides are nearly 

 straight, the sulci deep, and the surface minutely 

 sculptured. The elytra are broadest in the middle, and 

 the apices are separately rounded in both sexes, in the 

 $ with a short oblique sinuation near the sutural spine, 

 in the ? more strongly rounded and produced, with the 

 sutural apex somewhat retracted and the outer margin 

 oblique and subsniuated to the ante-apical angle, which 

 is distinctly indicated ; the surface is subgranulate- 

 punctate throughout, the apical margin faintly serru- 

 lated. The sides of the body are rather densely clothed 

 with adpressed hairs. The femora are brilliant green, 

 their apices and the tibiae translucent reddish. 



Cicindela fera, Chevrolat. 



This distinct species, so similar in form and elytral 

 markings to C. repanda (Dej.^, but distinguished by the 

 red apical half of the abdomen, the smoother, darker, 

 more opaque, and behind dilated elytra and the glabrous 

 forehead, has been taken in great number by Herr Hoge 

 at Villa Lerdo in Durango. He met with it also in more 

 southerly localities, viz., San Juan Bautista in Tabasco, 

 and Tehuantepec.
