BUFFALO SOCIETY OF NATURAE SCIENCES 483 



Described from two males and two females taken by me at 

 Rifle, Colo., July 25th, 1900. About a week earlier I took four 

 examples from the cedars about Manitou, Colo , which differ 

 from the typical form above described in being smaller (4 mm. ), 

 in having the base only of the scutellum sanguineous, the 

 nervures of the lager areole of the membrane pale, the base of 

 the cuneus more deeply sanguineous and the antennae a little 

 infuscated at apex. In some individuals the pronotum is 

 washed with reddish. They have the same swollen striate face 

 and probably are not distinct. 



Dichrooscytus maculatus n. sp 



Allied to elegans but smaller and more strongly marked. Vertex but 

 feebly earinated at base ; clypeus and cheeks smaller and less convex than 

 in elegans, the eyes when viewed from the side larger and more oblong, 

 reaching almost to the line of the gula. Antennse longer, the second joint 

 much elongated, one and one-half times the length of the third and fourth 

 united; scutellum narrower and more convex; upper surface with a few 

 pale appressed hairs more conspicuous on the elytra. 



Color light greenish yellow more or less tinged with pink, leaving the 

 head, antenna? and rostrum paler; punctures on the pronotum strong, con- 

 eolorous ; eyes black. Elytra marked with an oval fuscous spot at the inner 

 angle of the clavus and a narrow transverse fuscous vitta on the apex of 

 the corium, a little widened toward the costa. Membrane slightly enfumed, 

 with a fuscous cloud across the apex and over the apical one-half of the 

 areoles, the nervures pale, those at the extreme basal angle blackish. In 

 the reddish examples the abdomen and legs are more or less strongly suf- 

 fused with the same color. Length 3 mm. 



Described from two female and four male examples taken 

 by me at Sevenoaks, near Clearwater, Florida, on May 1st, 

 1908. This pretty little species is near to elegans but it has a 

 different aspect on account of its larger eyes and narrower form, 

 and is tvell distinguished by the more convex scutellum, longer 

 antennae, shorter clypeus and cheeks and the maculated elytra. 



Horcias dislocatus Say. 



So far as I can make out all of our eastern forms of Horcias 

 belong to one species for which I adopt the name first used by 

 Say. The following fairly well distinguished varieties are 

 represented in my collection : 



Var. dislocatus Say. Pale rufo-sanguineous; first two 

 antennal joints, .eyes, narrow base of the vertex and apex of the 

 head; two approximate spots on the base of the pronotum, the
