 iata Say. MSS." 



It has been found in Mass., Maryland and Virginia. Mr. Say de- 

 termined it as his Pentatoma dimidiata, but his description represents 

 a species having the second joint of the antennas one-half as long as 

 the third. In our species the second joint is decidedly more than 

 one-half the length of the third. It differs also in most of the other 

 characters given by Mr. Say.

 curs in his published papers.
