198 FLORIDA HEMIPTERA 



215. Pissonotus marginatus Van Duzee. 



I took one brachypterous female at Sevenoaks which agrees 

 in every respect with material taken in New York. 



216. Pissonotus ater Van Duzee. 



Crescent City, Tampa, Sevenoaks and Ft. Myers. Mod- 

 erately abundant. Most of those taken were macropterous 

 females. 



217. Pissonotus basalis VanDuzee. 



I took a male at Ft. Myers and a female at Estero which 

 agree in all essential particulars with the male from Columbus, 

 Texas, mentioned in my description of this species and bears a 

 superficial resemblance to Libumia pnella. 



218. Pissonotus delicatus VanDuzee. 



Of this species I obtained eight females at Crescent City, 

 Sevenoaks and Estero and one male at Estero. These females 

 vary from almost uniform fulvous to ferruginous with the ex- 

 treme apex of the elytra and of the front pale. In only two 

 specimens is there any indication of the piceous band on the 

 base of the clypeus. Four other males from Estero and Cres- 

 cent City are dark castaneous with a black interruption on the 

 pale apical border of the elytra and a strong frontal piceous 

 band. They seem to be but a color variety of this species. 



219. Pissonotus brunneus VanDuzee. 

 Crescent City; one brachypterous female. 



220. Phyllodinus nitens n. sp. 



Somewhat allied to Kcebelei but with much the aspect of Pissonotus 

 ater or delicatus. Brachypterous female: head distinctly narrower than 

 the pronotum; vertex quadrate; front moderately wide, slightly convex, 

 highly polished and feebly carinate. Pronotum. short, scarcely carinate. 

 Elytra reaching onto the second abdominal segment, without visible neura- 

 tion. Anterior tibiae very broad; foliaceous, about twice the width of the 

 femora. Length 2^ mm. 



Color rufo-piceous, darker on the abdomen and anterior tibiae. Elytra 

 clear rufous with a sharply defined white apex; pronotum, except anter- 

 iorly, and the posterior tibiae testaceous white. Front concolorous. 



Macropterous female: Elytra longer than the abdomen, whitish hyaline, 

 narrowly infuscated at base; nervures slender, concolorous, the marginal 

 brown becoming whitish on base of the commissure. Color piceous black,
