our region; the var. franciscana is found in most local- 

 ities, and is not rare. C. transversoguttata var. trans- 

 versalis was abundant during the season of 1897, on the 

 islands, and occurred rather frequently at Pasadena, 

 but I do not recall seeing it either before or since: calif or- 

 nica is rather common every season, and in nearly all 

 localities: monticola has been taken by Dr. Fenyes at 

 Lake Tahoe (Mt. Tallac, elevation 9,000 feet), and pro- 

 longata is said by Crotch to occur in California; these 

 two species are exceedingly closely related, and I am 

 inclined to doubt their distinctness. According to 

 Fauvel, the European 11-punctata Linn, has been taken 

 in California. 



Cycloneda. C. sanguinea is common and widely dif- 

 fused: oculata, rare, Pasadena: abdominalis , moderately 

 common, especially in cultivated grounds. 



Adalia. A. frigida, " California," must be northern: 

 bipunctata var. humeralis, one example, Santa Rosa 

 (Ricksecker). 



Harmonia. H. picta, common on pines in the Sierras. 



Anatis. A. rathvoni, " California, Oregon ": subvit- 

 tata, middle and northern Sierras: an undescribed spe- 

 cies from Lake Tahoe, elevation 9,000 feet (Fenyes). 



Mysia. M. hornii, San Bernardino Mountains, July; 

 one example beaten from a pine (identified by Dr. 

 Horn); it is not easy to distinguish this from speci- 

 mens from the middle Sierras which pass as Anatis sub- 

 vittata, in fact, I believe they are the same thing; it is 

 possible that we do not know Mulsant's species. 



Psyllobora. P. %0-maculata var. tcedata, very com- 

 mon everywhere, by beating.
