ceous; apical segment blackish. Legs testaceous; tips of tarsi blackish. Pro- 
notum blackish; carinae testaceous, the median carina posteriorly whitish. Nerv-

No specimens have been taken in the state. It has been taken in the 
eastern and southern part of the United States on bean. We have 
specimens from Clarksville, Tennessee, (DeLong), Beach Bluf¥, Mass., 
(Parshley), Washington, D. C., (Heidemann), Bedford, Penn., and 
Balsam, N. C. 
Gargaphia tiliae Walsh. 
Tingis tiliae Walsh, Proc. Entom. Soc. Phil., Vol. Ill, p. 408, 1864. 
Gargaphia fasciata Stal, Enum. Hem., Band. HI, p. 125, 1873. 
We have found fasciata Stal to be a synonym of tiliae Walsh; this 
has been confirmed by Mr. Heidemann in a letter to the senior author.
