Family tetxigonidae^ 

 Genus oncometopia 



Oncometopia undata Fabr. 



Proconia undata Fabr. [For full synonomy see Van Duzee's 



Catalogue] 



The general range for this species is stated by Van Duzee as 

 New Jersey to Michigan and south to Florida and Mexico. Only 

 one record ''Oswego" given on a specimen in the N. Y. State 

 Museum collection has come to notice for the State. 



Oncometopia lateralis Fabr.

 Cicada costalis Fabr. Syst. Rhyng. errata following p. c? 14 

 ^^^P^^topia lateralis Ball. la. Acad. Sci. Proc. 8: 44 



This IS a northern form and the only trustworthy record I know 

 for the State is from Mr Van Duzee who reports it for Lake Placid. 

 I have specimens from Montreal Can. and it may be expected to 

 occur over the northern part of the State.

 A specimen secured at Cold Spring Harbor. One also 'in the 

 American. Museum, New York city and credited to '' N. Y.^' and it 

 was very likely secured at some point near the city. This is also a 

 southern species but its distribution extends a little farther north 

 than that of the preceding species.
