Schwarz.] 3 í 0 [Feb. 1, 
with eight rows of. coarse punctures, the inner two strie sub-impressed, 
interstices hardly convex, impunctate. Length 13.50 mm.; .54 inch. 
One specimen from Enterprise; another from the same 
locality is in the cabinet of Dr. LeConte; lives on dead oak 
twigs. Of the size of S. tenuicolle, but less convex and easily 
distinguished by the sculpture of the elytra. 
31. Hymenorus dorsalis Zimm., MS.—Elongate-oval, sub-im- 
pressed, above sub-opaque, with sparse, long, sub-erect pubescence, beneath 
shining, piceous-red, antenne and legs red, elytra black, broadly red at base. 
Head strongly and sparsely punctate, angulated each side in front of eyes, 
which are larger and more approximate than in any other species be- 
fore me, antenne stout, two-thirds as long as the body, outer joints 
more than twice as long as wide, last joint of maxillary palpi with the 
apical side decidedly longer than the external. Thorax at base almost 
twice as wide as long, semicircular, finely margined, base feebly lobed in 
the middle, hind angles rectangular, moderately strongly not densely 
punctured. Elytra punctate striate, stri® hardly impressed with the punc- 
tures finer than those of the thorax and not closely placed, interstices 
flat, finely and sparsely punctulate ; the red color occupies not quite one- 
third of the length of the elytra. ۱ 
Tampa and Enterprise, two specimens, beaten from old 
palmetto leaves. Distinguished from the other sub-opaque 
species by the larger eyes, by the not dense punctuation of 
the thorax, by the sculpture of the elytra and by its color. 
32. Isomira valida, n. sp. —Elongate-oval, convex, piceous, less 
shining, with moderately dense sericeous pubescence; antenne, palpi, tibiee 
and tarsi dark red. Head densely punctured, eyes very large, coarsely 
granulated, much less widely separated from each other than in J. 4-striata, 
antenne slender, more than half the length of the body, second joint not 
quite half as long as the third, the latter as long as each of the following 
joints, last joint of maxillary palpi less broadly triangular than in I. 4- 
striata, apical side shorter than the external, inner side straight. Thorax 
twice as wide as long, on the sides strongly rounded, and strongly narrowed 
from base to apex, base slightly sinuate each side, finely margined, hind 
angles rectangular ; densely punctate, in front of the scutellum with a short 
smooth, impressed median line, basal impressions feeble. Elytra at base 
twice as wide as the thorax, and three and a half times as long, densely, 
less finely punctulate, punctures forming transverse rugosities, obsoletely 
striate-punctate, the two inner stri? impressed behind. Epipleure of 
thorax, pro- and mesosternum densely rugosely punctulate, metasternum 
strongly punctured, posteriorly smooth, shining; abdomen densely, finely 
u/ 
punctulate. Length 6.75-7.50 mm.; .27-.30 inch 
Enterprise, four specimens, found in May, under old leaves.
