One specimen, New York. I am unable to discover the acicular joint of the 
maxillary palpi in this species, but it is so similar to the other species of this 
division, that I am convinced that it properly belongs here and not in divi- 
sion (C). 
Blackish brown, finely and sparsely pubescent. Head rounded; palpi and base 
of antenne testaceous; joints of the latter 3—8 rounded, subequal; 9th and 10th 
nearly twice as wide, transverse, 11th obtuse. Thorax not longer than wide, 
narrowed in front, slightly rounded on the sides, transversely impressed at the 
base. Elytra one half wider than the thorax, and forming with it a very obtuse 
angle, oval convex, deeply foveate at base, sparsely pubescent. Feet yellowish 
testaceous, thighs clavate. 
23. S. misellus, testaceus, minus convexus, pubescens, thorax quadrato, 
lateribus antice rotundatis, basi medio transversim impresso, elytris basi impres- 
sis, antennis brevibus, articulis tribus ultimis rotundatis multo maioribus.

Two specimens, from the upper part of Georgia, under pine bark. This species 
seems very similar to the European 8. nanus (Schaum, Germ. Zeitschr. 5, 471), 
but differs in color. Entirely pale rufo-testaceous, shining, finely pubescent. 
Head slightly transverse, rounded. Antenne as long as the head and thorax, 
joints 3—8 equal, small], rounded ; 9—11 twice as wide as the preceding, rounded, 
scarcely transverse. Thorax wider than the head, quadrate, rounded on the sides 
anteriorly, dise flattened, with a small transverse impression at the middle of the 
base, formed by the confluence of two punctures. Elytra flattened on the disc, 
wider than the thorax, ovate, very slightly punctulate, impressed at the base. 
Thighs a little thickened. 
24. S. gravidus, piceus, pubescens, thorace antrorsum angustato, basi 
transversim impresso, elytris brevioribus rufescentibus, ovatis, basi foveatis, 
antennis gracilibus, articulis tribus ultimis rotundatis abrupte maioribus.

Louisiana, Schaum, one specimen. Broader than the neighboring species, 
piceous pubescent. Head rounded: antennz a little longer than the head and 
thorax, slender, joints 3--8 equal, not elongated, 9 and 10 more than twice as 
thick, globular, 11th a little longer, obtuse. Thorax wider than the head, trape- 
zoidal, narrowed anteriorly, sides almost straight, base with a strong transverse 
impression. Klytra somewhat rufous, ovate, twice as wide as the base of the 
thorax and forming with it a very indistinct angle; moderately convex, base 
strongly foveate; thighs slightly clavate, tarsi testaceous. 
25. S.fulvus, fusiformis, testaceo-rufus, pubescens, thorace longiusculo, 
trapezoideo, elytris basi vix impressis, antennis brevibus, articulis tribus ultimis 
rotundatis, abrupte maioribus. Long. :03. . 
Upper part of Georgia, under pine bark. This species has very nearly the 
form of 5. analis, but the thorax is longer. 
Bright rufo-testaceous, covered with fine yellow hair. Head strongly pilose 
posteriorly. Antenne as long as the head and thorax, three last joints equal 
globular, twice as thick as the preceding ones, which are small and rounded. 
Thorax longer than wide, scarcely wider than the head, narrowed in front, sides 
straight, base not impressed. Elytra one half wider than the thorax, continuous 
in outline with it, regularly narrowed behind the middle, sparsely punctulate, 
slightly depressed on the disc, scarcely foveate at the base, thighs but slightly 
clavate. 
B—ce. 
26. S. gracilis, elongatus rufo-testaceus, pubescens, capite angusto, thorace 
elongato, antrorsum subangustato, basi impresso, elytris elongato-ovalibus, con- 
-vexis basi impressis, antennis articulis 5 ultimis sensim crassioribus. Long. -06.
