 This species has appeared but once in our lists under the name of 

 pallipes and is not given in the Henshaw List. The species was 

 stricken from our catalogues upon the supposition that it did not 

 belong to our fauna, but that it was a species of Mexico, from which 

 country King's type specimen is thought to have been sent. There 

 can, however, be no doubt of its occurrence in our fauna as well as in 

 that of Mexico. Dr. LeConte in describing nigripennis gave as the 

 locality York County, Pennsylvania (collected by Dr. Melsheimer) ; 

 Dr. Castle has since taken it in the Blue Mountains, Pennsylvania 

 (vide Ent. News, 1902, p. 61); the writer also has before him a speci- 

 men taken in Texas. This species should, therefore, be restored to 

 our lists.

 This species was described from California and Mexico, the latter 

 locality with a query. Lacordaire was apparently the first writer 

 to place the species in Lebasiella. In nature it is unknown to the 

 author and evidently is a very rare species.
