The specimens were all taken on sour gum (Nyssa sp.), which 
is the food plant of the species. This species is typical of the 
subgenus Neolygus,j which includes a large number of species 
found in the eastern states. It is the only species thus far de- 
scribed in the group that appears to be strictly southern in its 
distribution. 
Holotypes: 8, June 9, 1917, Auburn, Alabama (H. H. Knight) ; 
Cornell University Collection. Allotype: Taken with the type. 
Paratypes: 2 3, 2 9, taken with the types; J‘ June 12, LeRoy, Ala- 
bama (H. H. Knight). 
Lygus tilie var. heterophyllus new variety—Structurally not differing 
from tilig but uniformly pale green in color, membrane pale; males with 
the inner apical angles of the corium lightly infuscated, but never as dark 
as the typical female of tilig; females uniformly delicate pale green, might 
easily be confused with small pale forms of apicalis but distinguished by 
having a shorter rostrum. 
Described from specimens taken on Tilia heterophylla, where the species 
was found breeding. 
Holotype: 3, June 16, Fla., Georgia (H. H. Knight) ; Cornell University 
Collection. Allotype: Taken with the type. Paratypes: 2 dg, 129, taken 
with the types; 2 April 3, Agricultural College, Mississippi (G. F. Arnold). 
Lygus inconspicuus Knight—3 J, 5 9, June 8, Stone Moun- 
tain, Georgia. These specimens were taken on wild grape-vine 
(Vitis rotundifolia), which is apparently the food plant of the 
species. Paracalocoris multisignatus Reuter was taken in com- 
pany with this species on the same vine. 
Lygus neglectus Knight —2 4, 1 2, June 12, LeRoy, Alabama; 
3g, June 12, Calvert, Alabama ; 3 J, June 16, Colyell, Louisiana. 
This species is apparently more frequent on Carpinus caro- 
liniana along shady water courses of the southern states than is 
the case in the north. 
Lygus geneseensis Knight—6 4, June 2, Cochran, Virginia, 
taken on Quercus alba. 
Lygus semivittatus Knight—, June 9, Auburn, Alabama. 
Just this one isolated specimen was taken which extends the range 
of the species considerably south of the previously known distri- 
bution. The species was described from New York and a single
