back from it, widening at the basal margin, narrowing between the

A fine series of specimens were brought back from the island. 

 They were found on both sides of the region. At Balthazar they 

 were taken April 7, from plants in open weedy places near a 

 stream of water. In March they were found on the Mirabeau 

 and Lake Antoine estates. In August they were swept from 

 herbage on the Mount Gay and Lake Antoine estates. 



The form of the sides of the head and proportions of the 

 antennse seem to place this species in Calocoris rather than in 

 Megacoelum.

Several specimens were taken on the Mount Gray estate and 

 at St. George's, late in August and early in September, by sweeping 

 the herbage. 



In Maryland this species occurs in late summer on willows, 

 and also on undergrowth of thin woods and on pine-trees, near 

 streams of water.
