Family DASCYLLIDJE. 



Small, oval, convex species, with rather soft elytra, head concealed and bent 

 down, antennae usually slender but sometimes serrated toward the tip. The 

 legs are slender and when disturbed the insects draw up so as to seem almost 

 hunched ; the broadest portion of the body coming a little before the middle. 

 They are beaten from trees or swept from shrubs along water courses and some 

 species are very common, though none are injurious.
