in the middle posteriorly. Elytra rather broad, venation distinct, 
similar to that of floridana; female less reticulate. 
Color; vertex and face pale yellow, finely irrorate with brown, 
the frontal sutures including the ocelli, a basal median line and an 
irregular wedge on anterior half, fuscous. Pronotum olive gray- 
ish, a row of submarginal creamy spots sometimes extending back 
onto the disc as pale lines. Scutellum pale impressed line, spots 
inside basal angles and a pair on anterior disc, dark. Elytra cin- 
ereous or sometimes greenish, nervures pale. The male sometimes 
darkened up to a slaty brown. Below pale, margins of abdomen 
often red. 
Genitalia; female segment half longer than the penultimate, pos- 
terior margin nearly truncate, a somewhat variable obtuse, median 
tooth. Male valve almost concealed, plates stout, coriaceous, 
scarcely longer than the ultimate segment, their apices bluntly 
pointed, upturned, whole genitalia reddish. 
Described from eighteen specimens from La Salle and 
Fort Collins, Col. The first specimens were collected by 
Professor Gillette.

washed with reddish orange, a pair of spots against the ocelli on 
the inside and a marginal line sometimes emphasized in the spots 
at the apex, creamy; ocelli shining black; anterior margin of pro-
