October, 1913 Bulletin of the Brooklyn Entomological Society 85 



Legs yellow. Posterior tarsi brown. Pate elongate cultrate, slightly 

 more than 3 times as long as wide at base, pegs in an almost 

 straight line, nearer lower margin than upper one, 22 in number. 

 Tibia a little less than ^ the length of the pala, about the same 

 width. Metaxyphus short, triangular. Strigil sinistral, minute, 

 oblong-ovate, 3 stri^. Length 4 mm.; pronotal width \]4 mm. 

 Cave Springs, August. 



Allotype: female. Like the male in coloration. Head-length 

 3>^ in width; interocular width a little less than head length. 

 Palae cultrate, about V& as high as long and a little less than twice 

 as long as the tibia, to which it is broadly joined. Length 4^ mm. 

 Cave Springs, August. 



Others in the collection (paratypes) from Blackshear and 

 Marietta, March. 



12. Corixa sellaris (Abbott), new species. 



Head somewhat rounded at the angles; yellowish white, the 

 vertex infuscated. Head length equal to the interorbital breadth; 

 3 times in the width; posterior margin impressed. Front flattened, 

 with rather sparse white bristles. Pronotum rastrate, long and 

 triangular, or almost cordate, with an indistinct carina anteriorly. 

 Outer marginal areas flattened. 12 dark brown lines; these are 

 parallel, not curved, and but little interrupted or broken. Tegmi- 

 nal markings vermiculate and anastomosing; with the exception 

 of the few at the base of the clavus they form a continuous inter- 

 locking pattern over clavus, corium, and membrane, with very 

 little tendency toward cross-barring or longitudinal seriation. 

 Embolium infuscated. Clavus minutely rastrate. Tegmina, 

 especially clavus, with sparse short erect white hairs, partially 

 disposed in rows, especially along the sutures. Metaxyphus short, 

 triangular. Under surface and legs yellowish ivory. Claws of 

 intermediate tarsi with a brown band across the middle. Palas 

 compressed and broadly joined to the tibia, arrowhead-shaped 

 from the outer aspect, short cultrate from the inner aspect, a 

 curving row of bristles on the inner face that recalls the usual 

 distribution of pegs in the male. Height of pala, % its length; 

 tibia % the pala in length. Intermediate tarsi % the tibia and a 

 little shorter than the claws. 



Holotype: a female from Bininswick, May 3. Length 5 mm.
