Uhler.] 102 [February 1, 



Dr. Harris refers this species to Pamera Ulobata Say, but it does 

 not agree with Mr. Say's description. 



Ozophora. Nov. Gen. 



Antennae long and slender, the basal joint reaching fully one-half 

 its length beyond the tylus. Eyes large, rather distant from the 

 base of the head, prominent, but deeply inserted, the facets rather 

 large, postorbital surface swollen. Pronotum campanulate, broader 

 than long, at sides deeply sinuated, the anterior lobe rounded, con- 

 vex, shorter than the posterior one, the sides bounded by a thick, 

 raised margin; collum distinctly elevated, sinuated in the middle; 

 posterior lobe very broad, the sides oblique, bounded by the continua- 

 tion of the same elevated margin; humeri prominent, resembling 

 long, thick tubercles. Impression between the lobes moderately 

 deep. Disk of scutellum excavated. 

 O. picturata, n. sp. 



Pale rufo-piceous, or rufo-testaceous, elongate-oval, colors beneath 

 and upon the anterior lobe of pronotum opaque; hemelytra and base of 

 pronotum glossy. Antennas, rostrum, legs, hemelytra, posterior lobe 

 of pronotum, and scutellum testaceous. Apex of the second and 

 third joints and apical two-thirds of the last joint of the antennae 

 blackish; the basal third of the latter white. Head densely punc- 

 tured on the middle line, front and near the eyes, beneath finely 

 punctured; tips of the lateral lobes and of the tylus honey-yellow, 

 apex of rostrum piceous. Anterior lobe of pronotum impunctured, 

 brown, the raised collar yellow, with brown spots; lateral raised mar- 

 gins yellowish : posterior lobe coarsely, remotely punctured with 

 brown, and usually with five longitudinal brown stripes ; humeral 

 angles smooth, yellow, generally with a brown spot exteriorly. Pos- 

 terior and upper margins of the metastethium yellow. Scutellum 

 remotely punctured, carrying a V-shaped, yellow line, the lateral 

 edges and tip also yellow. Hemelytra punctured in oblique lines 

 with brown, the clavus clouded with brown ; corium with a small 

 streak near the base, a broad spot behind the middle, reaching the 

 outer margin by contact with a smaller spot, a spot at the apical 

 exterior angle, continued along the membranal suture, fuscous; costal 

 margin broadly white, impunctured; membrane fuscous, a few irregu- 

 lar lines near the base, the nervures and a large spot at tip white.
