(39) Anoplodera dolorosa Lee., 1861, Proe. Acad. Phila., p. 355. 
Length 10 to 15 mm. This is an entirely black species. 
Seventy-two specimens have been examined from California, Oregon, 
Washington, British Columbia, and Idaho. 
Type locality: East of Fort Gibbs (Wash.), collected by Mr. Gibbs 
while on the Northwestern Boundary Survey.

laurentica Csy., 1913, Mem. on the Coleop., vol. IV, p. 
271. (o’ 1 ). 
Length 11 to 15 mm. Le Conte 1 speaks of the extremely long male 
antennae, the elytra without dark apices and with the postmedian spot 
reduced to a small cloud. We have seen one specimen with an entire 
absence of maculation and without the apical black or dark coloration. 
The antennse, prothorax, legs, and ventral aspect are generally rufous. 
One male had the antennae twice the length of the body, but this extreme 
is unusual. 
Twenty-six specimens were examined from Pennsylvania, New York, 
Massachusetts, Ontario, and Quebec. Other localities cited in literature: 
Virginia, “Can. West.” 
Host plant: Castanea (Craighead). 
Type locality: Trenton Falls, N.Y. 
(41) Anoplodera atrata Lee., 1850, Jour. Acad. Nat. Sci. Phila., (2), vol. 1, 
p. 338. 
Length 10 mm. Mr. It. P. Loding of Mobile, Alabama, has sent us a 
black species which agrees with LeConte’s type of atrata . The type of 
atrata has the elytra dark brown, nearly black. It appears definitely 
distinct from A. proximo Say, to which it is closely related, by the much 
coarser punctation of the pronotum and elytra, and the broad impression 
on each side on the disk of the pronotum. The elytra are wide at the base, 
short, strongly cuneiform, with the apices broadly almost transversely 
truncate and hardly emarginate at the apex. The elytral vestiture is 
golden, short, and coarse, whereas that of proxima is longer and finer. 
The type has the left elytron broken at the apex and the abdomen missing. 
It is probably a male ; the antenna are slender. 
One specimen examined from Alabama, in addition to the type. 
Type locality: Georgia, 
(42) Anoplodera Uebecki Hop., 1922, Can. Ent., vol. LIV, p. 164 (Antho- 
philax j. 
Length 11 to 14 mm. This species is very closely allied to atrata Lee., 
with the side margins of the pronotum very strongly angulate. The elytra 
of Uebecki are less coarsely and more densely punctate on the basal half 
and are deep red with the apices black, and the side margins, viewed from 
the side, are distinctly less strongly bisinuate, so that the elytra appear less 
strongly cuneiform as viewed from above. The pubescence of the pro- 
notum is short, stout, and golden, that of the vertex of the head short; 
whereas in the single specimen of atrata before us the pubescence on both 
pronotum and vertex is long, slender, and pale in colour. 
Six specimens have been studied from Texas and Kansas. 
Type locality: Texas.
