Larger and broader than J. quadristriata, with the eyes 
much larger, the thorax wider, more areuate on the sides, 
elytra denser and stronger punctate with the strise on the dise 
more evident, underside less shining, more densely punetate. 
The elytra are in fact regularly striate-punctate, but the 
striee are not impressed and the fine lines of punctures are 
confused by the equally strong punetuation of the inter- 
stices. 
33. Kylophilus quercicola, n. sp.—More elongate than any other 
species before me, having the appearance of a small Anthicus. Head, with 
the eyes, a little wider than the thorax, convex behind, piceous, finely, not 
densely pubescent, minutely and sparsely punctulate, eyes widely sepa- 
rated, not oblique, antenne red, longer than head and thorax, with moder- 
ately long, soft pubescence, intermediate joints longer than wide, outer 
joints as long as wide, penultimate joints subtransverse, terminal joint 
black, larger than the preceding, ovate, acuminate. Thorax as long as 
wide, at the sides rounded anteriorly, a little narrowed behind, base 
straight, hind angles obtuse, disc moderately convex with an obsolete im- 
pression each side in the middle, without basal impression ; sub-opaque, 
finely pubescent, minutely, sparsely punctulate ; color variable, testaceous 
at base, more or less black in front, or entirely testaceous. Elytra at base 
almost twice as wide as the thorax, elongate, parallel on the sides ; on the 
disc anteriorly depressed, sub-opaque, alutaceous, moderately strongly, not 
densely punctate, smooth at apex ; whitish pubescent, testaceous, an in- 
definite circum-scutellar spot, a large spot each side behind the middle, the 
apex and sometimes the side margins black, the black color of the apex 
ascends along the suture. The pubescence is sparse on the black and dense 
on the testaceous parts. Beneath rufous, pubescent, sub-opaque, punctate, 
abdomen often blackish, impunctate ; legs testaceous. Length 1.75 mm.; 
.07 inch. 
Tampa, seven specimens, on oak shrubs, in April. Ido 
not perceive any sexual characters. 
34. Kylophilus ptinoides, n. sp.—Piceous, sub-opaque, sparsely 
pubescent. Head, with the eyes, wider than the thorax, immersed in the 
thorax almost as far as the eyes. neck and hind margin of head, therefore, 
not visible ; front but little convex transversely ; finely and densely punc- 
tulate, eyes large, oblique; antenne slender, two-thirds as long as the 
body, with long, stiff pubescence, pale yellow, third and fourth joint more 
than twice as long as wide, the outer joints still longer ; last joint as long, 
and a little wider than the preceding, obtusely rounded at tip, infuscate. 
Thorax as long as wide, quadrate, very convex transversely, not rounded 
on the sides, front margin straight, base rounded, opaque, densely and finely 
punctured; sparsely whitish pubescent, the margins and lateral vitta 
each side more densely pubescent, upper surface uneven with some shallow
