Apparently very closely allied to S. tenuis (Blessig), but dif- 

 fering in the concolorous antennje, the denser punctuation o£ tlie 

 elytra (in S. tenuis " ziemllch stark aber nicht sehr dicht punk- 

 tirt ") ; it is also less linear in form, judging from the expres- 

 sions used in the description o^ S. tenuis. 



The genus Strangalomorpha, proposed by Blessig (Horse Soc. 

 Ent. Eoss. ix. p. 253), differs from the subgenus Stenura in the 

 form of the elytra, wliich are less narrowed behind and are de- 

 pressed along the suture. I do not see the difference iu the 

 position of the base of the antennae mentioned by Blessig. The 

 antennae are more slender than in Stenura, in both sexes being 

 longer than the body.
