Closely related to Thaumastomiris Kirkaldy and Prodromus Dis- 
tant, but readily distinguished from the former by the different 
structure of cuneus and membranal cell, and from the latter by the 
different structure of head. This genus is named in honor of Dr. 
H. H. Knight, of Iowa State College, who is an authority on the 
family Miridae. 
Genotype.—Knightiola pulchella, new species.

Genus BROMELIAEMIRIS Schumacher 
I place the following species provisionally in the genus Bromeliae- 
miris Schumacher. It is possible that this genus is a synonym of 
Lopidolon Poppius, but at the present time I do not have sufficient 
material fully to justify this conclusion. 
BROMELIAEMIRIS DISSIMILIS, new species 
Male.—Body elongate, length 5.95 mm., width 1.9 mm., densely | 
clothed with fine simple pale hairs; reddich yellow, arene lateral — 
margins of pronotum, hemelytra, tl legs (excluding coxae snl basal © 
half of femora) black.
