long as the claws. It is intermediate between C. impressifrons 

 and G, planicollis. 



SCHIZOGENIUS PTTTZEYS. 



12. S. planulatus. Rufo-purpureus nitidus, depressus, thorace la- 

 titudine sublongiore antrorsum perparum angustato, lateribus vix rotun- 

 datis, angulis posticis minutis vix distinctis, elytris striis punctulatis, 

 interstitiis 3io et 5to multipunctatis. Long. -23. 



New York ; Mr. Ulke. A little larger than S. lineolatus, but 

 as much flattened as S. amphibitis, and differing from both by the 

 very finely punctured elytral striae. 



L.EBIA LATH. 



13. L.. atriceps. Capite nigro-piceo, vix rugose punctulato, thorace 

 transverse, rufo-testaceo, ruguloso, lateribus late marginatis, elytris 

 nigrocyaneis, subtiliter striatis, interstitiis planis, stria 3ia bipunctata ; 

 abdomine nigerrimo, metasterno ssepe, tibiis tarsis palpis antennisque 

 piceis, his articulis tribus primis testaceis, femoribus rufo-testaceis, apice 

 obscuris. Long. -25 -30. 



Nebraska ; Mr. Ulke. Of the same size and form as L. atri- 

 ventris; as in that species, the first three joints of the anterior 

 tarsi of the male are obliquely dilated. The metasternum in one 

 specimen is dark, in another rufo-testaceous. 



14. L,. lobulata. Pallide testacea, capite nigro, parce punctato, tho- 

 race nigro, latitudine paulo breviore, postice paulo angustato, angulis 

 posticis subrectis, inargine lateral! pallido, elytris modice striatis, nigris 

 limbo laterali angusto, macula magna lobata humerali, apiceque late 

 pallidis. Long. '12 -15. 



Ohio and Louisiana; Mr. Ulke. Resembles at first sight L. 

 axillaris, but the humeral spot, instead of being simply triangular 

 as in that species, is lobed, with the inner and posterior outlines 

 emarginate, resembling some of the varieties of L. fuscata. The 

 head is also distinctly though sparsely punctured, as in L. pul- 

 chelia, while in L. axillaris it is smooth. 



ptocmoivrs DEJ. 



15. P. valens. Longiusculus, rufo-piceus, nitidus, thorace latitudine 

 vix sesqui breviore, apice paulo angustiore, lateribus marginatis rotun-
