and a faiat infuscation spreading from this and broadening towards — 
anal margin of wing. 
Described from 2 4 specimens collected by Nathan Banks at College 
Station Texas. 
Tetracladia gracilis sp. nov. 
Male.—Length, 1.44™™; expanse, 2.9™™. Longer and slenderer than 
T. texana; antenne longer and slenderer, except joints 1, 2, 3, and 4 of 
the funicle, resembling closely the antenne which Westwood has 
figured for Tetracnemus diversicornis, except that the four branches are 
borne on funicle joints 2,3, 4, and 5 instead of 1, 2,3,and 4. Head and 
mesoscutum closely and finely reticulate, the reticulation becoming 
transverse on face; no sparse punctures; genal sulcus sharp and com- 
plete; mesoscutellum and scapulie nearly smooth, very faintly reticu- 
late; dorsum of abdomen faintly shagreened. Color: Antenne black; 
head and thorax metallic green, mesoscutellum somewhat bronzy, and 
scapule with a faint purplish reflection; mesopleura brilliant purple, 
greenish at base; abdomen black, shining, with greenish or bluish re- 
flections; all coxee and femora metallic green; all tibiz black, yellowish 
at tips; all tarsi honey-yellow with dark terminal joints; middle tibial 
spur honey-yellow; wings perfectly hyaline. 
Described from 2 ¢ specimens collected in east Florida by Mr. Ash- 
mead. 
CALOCERINUS gen. nov. 
Male.—Resembles Tetracladia, from which it differs mainly in the ex- 
traordinary length of joint 6 of the funicle, and of the branch of joint 5, 
Scape inserted slightly below middle of face, subcylindrical, not broad- 
ened below, long, curved slightly backwards, reaching to lateral 
ocellus; pedicel as broad as long; joints 1 to 4 of the funicle as in 
Tetracladia, joint 5 a trifle longer than 1 to 4 together; joint 6 about 
four times as long as 5, growing gradually stouter towards tip; club, 
long oval, slightly broader than tip of preceding joint, and nearly one- 
half as long. Face broad, well rounded; occipital ridge rounded, but 
more acute than in Tetracladia; ocelli forming an obtuse-angled tri- 
angle; head broader than thorax and with a very short occipito-frontal 
diameter; mesonotum well rounded, seutellum rounded at tip, scapule 
meeting at tip. Wing venation same as in Tetracladia; fore wings 
partially infuscated. Legs rather long; hind femora not so much en- 
larged as in Tetracladia. 
The abdomen is broken off at second joint with the only specimen, 
and therefore its shape and other characters are unknown.
