tibiae small and slender. The adults live mainly on marsh vege- 
tation, as Polygonum, etc. 
*212 (16023%). S. frontalis (Fabr.).—Northern part of State, south 
to Citrus Center (Davis Coll.). At hand from Gainesville and Dunedin, at 
the former on smartweed, July (Wat.); rare at Dunedin at porch-light, 
June 15. Occurs usually on Polygonum about the margins of ponds. Leng, 
in his Catalogue, forgot to number this and it appears erroneously as a syn- 
onym of pallicornis Scheffer, a Texas species. 
213 (16026). S. pallipes Sz., 1878, 367.—Types from “different parts of 
Florida, abundant on swampy meadows in May and June” (Sz.). L. Poin- 
sett, L. Ashley, Baldwin and Crescent City (Sz. Ms.). Ft. Myers, Apr. 20 
(Davis Coll.). 
*214 (16027). S. elongata (Fabr.).—“Enterprise, not rare” (Sz.). 
St. Augustine (Ham.). Moore Haven, Mch. 27, on foliage in low mucky 
soil. Gainesville, on Heleniwm, June (Wat.). 
*215 (16029). S. marginalis (Ill.).—Crescent City and Haw Creek 
(Sz. Ms.). Dunedin, rare, Mch. 28, on wax-myrtle; July 5 at porch-light. 
Gainesville, on Polymnia and Myrica, June; L. Wales, on oak (Wat.). 
LIV. Longitarsus Latreille. 
Very small oblong-oval, strongly convex, glabrous species 
(1-2.5 mm.) blackish or dull yellow in hue and having the front 
coxal cavities open behind, thorax without basal impression, 
elytral punctures confused, hind tibiae with apex entire, first 
joint of hind tarsus nearly half the length of tibia. (For key to 
species see Bl., 1921). The adults live mainly on subaquatic 
vegetation along the edges of marshes or on herbage in dense 
woodland. 
216 (16032). L. varicornis Suffr.—Leng, in his catalogue, mentions 
L. heliophyti Horn, a synonym, as occurring in Florida, Alabama and Texas. 
No other State record. Occurs on the Indian heliotrope, Heliotropium 
indicum L. 
*217 (16046). L. pygmaeus Horn.—“Enterprise, Tampa, Baldwin and 
Sumter County” (Sz. Ms.). At hand from Arch Creek and Dunedin. Fre- 
quent about Dunedin, Dec.-Apr., on tall dead grasses along the margins of 
ponds. Described from Georgia. 
218 (16047). L. testaceus Melsh.—Northern part of the State south 
to L. Okeechobee (Davis Coll.). Numerous records by Schwarz (Ms.) and 
others but part of them doubtless refer to L. cotulus and tenuicornis. 
F219 ( ). L. tenuicornis Blatch., 1923, 34.—Types from Sanford, 
Dunedin, La Belle, Moore Haven and Ft. Myers, Nov. 21-Apr. 4. Common

Dunedin, Eustis and Sanford. Occurs throughout the State, south to Moore 
Haven, on May weed or dog-fennel, Anthemis cotula L. and allied Composite.
