Sperata Lec. Brown cupreous, beneath green. Head and thorax 
pubescent; labrum one toothed: elytra densely punctured, white margin, 
humeral lunule oblique, hooked at tip, middle band with long, moder- 
ately sinuous longitudinal portion, apical lunule inflected on both 
ends. anterior end moderately prolonged. Elytra of slightly sinuous 
near tip, the latter acute with sutural spine, of Q rather strongly sinu-

sutural spine. Occurs in New Mexico. Length 12—13.5 mm.

Gabbii Horn. Olivaceous bronze, beneath green bronze, very hairy. 
This species is very singular and at once known by its peculiar mark- 
ings; the humeral lunule is obtusely bent and hooked at tip, the middle 
band curves towards the base and is suddenly bent at an obtuse angle 
and obliquely prolonged towards the suture and to nearly the apical 
lunule, connected at the margin with the apical and humeral lunules; 
the apical lunule is anteriorly very much prolonged. The labrum is 
one-toothed, the elytra strongly punctured, those of tae Q are broader 
than those of the 9/, with the tips narrowing obliquely. Occurs 
in California on salt marshes near Wilmington (San Petro) Cal. Length 
II—i2 mm,

Hirtilabris Lec. Bronzed-brown, body beneath, prothorax and head 
clothed with prostrate white hair, labrum clothed with similar white 
hair with a small indistinct tooth at the middle. Elytra with a broad 
white border, feebly dilated in the region of the humeral lunule, middle 
band broad, marked with numerous dark points and lines, immediately 
behind it is a dilation representing the apical lunule, there is also a 
small basal spot. The dark spaces are strongly punctured. Legs very 
long and slender, hind trochanters red. It is remarkably distinct from 
all the other species by the labrum, being clothed with fine prostrate 
white hair. Elytra of J! feebly sinuate, tip obtuse, of Q deeper sinuate, 
limited in front by a distinct angulation, tip obliquely truncate, pl. IV, 
fig. g, Closely resembles grafosa, but it is sufficiently distinct by the 
hairy labrum, the dark space of the elytra broader, with the two branch- 
es more confused. Occurs in Florida, on sandy roads through 
meadows. July to Sept. Length 97—9.5 mm.
