412 GEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF THE TEEEITOEIES. 



callosities oval, placed obliquely. Suture between corium and cuneus 

 externally deeply notched ; areole of the membrane obliquely narrowed 

 toward the outer end. 



L. media., Say, (Heteropt., New Harmony, p. 22, No. 11 ;) Capsus Bohi- 

 nice, Uliler, (Proc. Ent. Soc, vol. I, p. 24.) — This species seems to inhabit 

 almost the whole territory of the United States. The i^resent specimens 

 came from Cheyenne, and were collected in August, 1870. The yellow 

 variety, named C. Eohinice, dwells upon Robinia ^seudacacia. 



Hadronema, Uhler. 



Aspect of Lopus : cranium somewhat convex, face almost vertical ; 

 eyes prominent, oval, almost vertical ; occiput with a high, transverse 

 carina between the eyes; tylus a little prominent, narrowing toward 

 the tip; cheeks short and blunt; bucculse narrow, shorter than the 

 basal joiut of the rostrum ; that joint subcylindrical, robust, a little 

 longer than the head. AntennaB short, about as long as the corium 

 and cuneus united, stout; the third and fourth joints of nearly equal 

 thickness, not tapering to a setaceous termination ; the latter less than 

 one-half the length of the jtreceding. Pronotum trapezoidal ; the angles 

 rounded; the collum forming an obtuse, narrow collar, and behind 

 it is an arcuated carina abbreviated a little way from the lateral mar- 

 gins ; the lateral edges prominently carinated. Costal margins of the 

 hem elytra almost straight, parallel. 



jH". militaris. New species. — Black, dull, more or less tinged with cine- 

 reous. . Head broad, dull black, having a few stiff hairs on the vertex, and 

 with yellowish pubescence about the tip of the tylus ; bucculse yellow ; 

 rostrum and antennse black, the former reaching to the intermediate 

 coxae; antennse sparingly setulose; the joints closely united; the basal 

 joint short, reaching a little way beyond the head; second longest, not 

 quite as stout as the basal, and more than twice as long ; third joint a 

 very little more slender than the second and about one-fourth shorter ; 

 the apical one a little more slender, but not setaceous, a little longer than 

 the basal ; these two last densely covered with golden-yellow pubescence. 

 Pronotum rather flat, yellowish-red, the anterior lobe black, and some- 

 times that color extends backward on the middle, invested with black, 

 remote, bristly hairs; the posterior lobe coarsely, transversely rugose, 

 the carinated lateral edge a little sinuated; the anterior angles rounded 

 and posterior ones more broadly so, and having the edge a little raised ; 

 propleura red posteriorly, smooth; the remainder of the pectus, and 

 the legs, bluish-black, the latter with yellowish pubescence ; posterior 

 •femora with a row of obsolete blacker points. Scutellum a little scooped 

 out upon the middle. Corium black, the costal margin broadly yellowish- 

 white, invested with remote erect setae ; the cuneus yellow, except on 

 the inner part of base ; membrane pale fuscous, with the nervule black. 

 Abdomen dull bluish-black, invested with yellowish, minute pubescence; 

 the upper margins broadly red on the middle, more narrowly so at tip. 



Length to tip of venter, 3^-5 millimeters. Width across the humeri, 

 IJ-lf millimeters. * 



. Inhabits Colorado; Ogden, Utah; California; also found at Cheyenne, 

 in June, 1869. 



Tl:e specimens vary in the width of the pale margin of the hemelytra 

 and in the extent of black on the pronotum. The base of the corium is 

 sometimes entirely whitish.
