Stenohothrus sp. 



Closely allied to S. macuUpennis Scudder, and perhaps the same spe- 

 cies ; but I have no specimens now at hand to enable me to make a 

 comparison. Not rare in the vicinity of Oaiion City, August 11. 



Stenohothrus sp. 



Having somewhat the appearance of S. curtipennis Scud., but with 

 arcuated lateral carina, and with tegmina nearly as long as the body. 

 Common in Manitou Park, August 14. 



Stenohothrus sp. 



Allied to the preceding, but differing in details of marking. Colorado 

 Springs, on the hill-sides west of the city, August 16. 



Stenohothrus sp. 



Same group as the foregoing two species, but more robust, and with 

 shorter anteume. Found on August 6 in Beaver Brook Gulch. Xot com- 

 mon there.
