 Chariesterus antennator Dallas, Brit. Mus. List Hemipt., ii, 510, No. 1. 



One specimen occarred to me at Manitou, upon a small oak-tree, Au- 

 gust 13. It often occurs upon bushes in the Atlantic region, in locali- 

 ties adjoining open woods, and about groves of trees in the low mead- 

 ows. When fresh and not weather-beaten, it is thickly powdered 

 beneath with a white mealy substance. Occasionally, it occurs upon 

 the Golden-rod, in the pollen and flowers of which it deeply buries itself, 

 so as to be almost out of the reach of sight. Its gray ground-color and 

 white covering do not, however, afford it any protection from the ento- 

 molosical collector who examines flowers on their under sides.

One specimen from near Manitou, August 13. It ranges northward 

 from Mexico into California, Arizona, New Mexico, and specimens have 

 been sent to me from Denver (probably collected in that vicinity) by 



B. H. Smith. It varies much in depth of color and markings, and some- 

 what in the breadth of its outline.

 near Colorado Springs, August 10. 



Catorhintha Stal. 

 C. menclica. 



Catorhintha mendica Stal, Enum. Hemipt., i, 187, No. 2. 



Obtained by Dr. Packard near Golden, Colo., July 3, IS To. Prob- 

 ably the season for this insect was over when I reached Golden in 

 August, as I failed to find specimens of it by any of the methods usu- 

 ally adopted in collecting.
