May, 1910. Notes ON Some CLERiDi* — Wolcott. 353 



the fuscous area is narrow at the flanks and suture, but very broad and 

 prolonged apically at the middle of each elytron, the apex behind 

 this being nearly as pale as the fascia. A female specimen from 

 Utah has the elytra brown with the median fascia distinctly limited, 

 and the suture, humeri, and apex slightly paler than the ground color. 

 A male from Arizona has the elytra brown, the fascia distinct, the 

 suture, the second interval at base, the humeri, and the fifth and sixth 

 intervals from the humeri to fascia as pale as the fascia, and the 

 extreme elytral apex quite pale.

Cymatodera duplicata sp. nov. 



Moderately robust, pale brownish testaceous, head and thorax 

 slightly darker, moderately shining, sparsely pubescent; elytra with 

 an indistinct broad fascia at middle and the apex paler. Antennae 

 nearly half as long as body, moderately stout; joint two short, coni- 

 cal, slightly shorter than joint three; joints two and three together 

 scarcely longer than joint four; four to ten gradually shorter toward 

 tip, longer than broad, subserrate; joint eleven one-half longer than 

 joint ten, very acuminate at apex. Head sparsely, finely punctate; 

 eyes moderately prominent. Thorax nearly twice as long as broad; 

 base narrower than apex ; sides feebly constricted before the middle, 

 strongly compressed behind the middle; no ante-scutellar impression; 

 disk strongly convex, at basal third finely, transversely rugose; 

 flanks finely, rather sparsely and irregularly punctate. Elytra nearly 

 twice as wide at base as thorax at base; disk feebly convex; sides 

 broadening posteriorly ; apices conjointly rounded ; each elytron with 

 ten rows of coarse, rounded punctures which become obsolete at api- 

 cal fifth, lateral striae scarcely longer; inter\'als slightly broader than 

 the punctures. Metastemum very finely, sparsely punctate. Ab- 

 domen and legs pale testaceous, the former densely, finely punctate. 

 Length 73-8. 7 millim. 



Male. Fifth ventral segment broadly, very feebly emarginate; 

 sixth ventral short, sides nearly parallel at base, apex truncate, angles 

 oblique; last dorsal trapezoidal, longer than last ventral, feebly 

 sinuate and incised at tip. (PI. VI, figs. 17, 18.) 



Female. Fifth ventral segment truncate at apex, the posterior 

 margin slightly elevated ; sixth ventral ver\' slightly shorter than last 

 dorsal, semicircular; last dorsal semicircular. (PI. VI, fig. 19.)
