ist. Capron. 5.5 mm.; .22 inch. The prothoracic black stripe extends 
from the base to the tip ; the scutellum is dark, the 6th ventral segment has 
a small rounded pale yellow phosphorescent spot, besides the large one of 
the 4th segment. 
2d. Cedar Keys. 3.8 mm.; ,15 inch. The prothoracic black stripe ex- 
tends from the base nearly to the tip ; the scatelium is dark, the epipleure 
are piceo-testaceous, and there is no phosphorescent spot on the 6th 
ventral. 
8. Ozognathus floridanus, n. sp.—Black, shining, scarcely per- 
ceptibiy and thinly clothed with very short pubescence, punctulate, an- 
tenn and legs piceous. Prothorax twice as wide as long, convex, sides 
margined, very much rounded, hind angles very small, rectangular, 
slightly prominent. Length 1.4 mm.; .05 inch. 
Tampa ; two specimens, one of which was most kindly sent 
me by Mr. Schwarz. The sides of the prothorax are very 
much more rounded than in O. cornutus, and the pubescence 
is much shorter. The & is not known. 
This is an interesting addition to the genera common to 
Florida or the Antilles and California, 
86. Hemiptychus debilis, n. sp.—Elongate-oval, convex, red- 
brown, shining, clothed with very fine prostrate pubescence, almost imper- 
ceptibly punctulate. Prothorax short, rounded at base, slightly emargi- 
nate at apex, side angles deflexed, sub-acute when viewed laterally. Elytra 
with two deep striz extending from the middle nearly to the apex. Be- 
neath sparsely, finely punctured with sparse shallow punctures on the sides 
in front of the middle. Antennze and tarsi yellowish. Length 1.9 mm. ;

Enterprise ; one specimen. Resembles HH. ventralis, but 
the lateral strize of the elytra are longer, and the surface is 
sparsely covered with shallow punctures at the sides near the 
base ; the form is a little less elongate. 
Hemiptychus similis, n. sp.—Elongate-oval, convex, less rounded 
in front than behind, blackish brown, less shining, finely densely punctu- 
late and finely pubescent. Prothorax more distinctly punctured towards 
the sides. Elytra with two deep striw extending from the middte to near
