Pines, N. C., also Mobile and Baldwin Co., Ala., June to October 
(Léding). 
Cicindela severa Laferté. Punta Gorda (Schwarz); Cape Sable, May 
(Brownell); Key West. Occurs also in Alabama, shore of Mississippi Sound, 
June-August (Léding); Louisiana and Texas. 
Cicindela striga Leconte. Lake Harney, Punta Gorda (Schwarz); 
“Fla.” (Harris Coll., a specimen taken by Mrs. Slosson); Fort Myers, 
April 22 (Davis and Grossbeck); ‘ very rare in May, nocturnal in habit ” 
(Schwarz); Fort Myers, June, at light (Léding Coll.). Probably lives on 
marshy beaches. Peculiar to Florida. 
Cicindela abdominalis Fabricius. Common in the pine woods. 
Enterprise, Cedar Keys, Pensacola, De Funiak Springs, Crescent City 
(Schwarz); Taylor Co. (Genung); Suwannee (Slosson Coll.); Enterprise 
(Brownell); March to November. Extends northward to Long Island, 
westward to Louisiana. Mobile and Baldwin, Ala., June—October (Léding). 
Cicindela scabrosa Schaupp. Crescent City (Schwarz); Cedar Keys, 
June (Harris Coll.); Lakeland, August 16 (Bradley); Taylor Co. (Genung); 
Enterprise (Brownell); La Grange, Nov. 10-11 (Davis & Sleight). Occurs 
sometimes with abdominalis, of which it is usually regarded as a race peculiar 
to: Florida. Not found in Alabama (Léding). Casey (Memoirs on the 
Coleoptera, IV, 1913) has described C. abdominals ssp. faceta and C. exten- 
uata, the first without locality, the second from Crescent City and possibly 
identical with those cited above as scabrosa from that locality. C. faceta 
Casey is certainly not Floridian. There is a difference between the specimens 
of abdominalis from Florida and those from New Jersey in maculation, those 
from Florida having rarely more than the apical lunule and one discal dot, 
while those from New Jersey have usually in addition two dots representing 
the middle band and a marginal elongate spot near apical third. Rarely 
(in New Jersey specimens) the humeral lunule is also represented by two 
dots, and it is probably such a specimen that Casey has described as ssp. 
Jaceta, a name which may be used for the New Jersey form in future, though 
many specimens from that region lack the humeral dots called for by the 
description and some are almost as nearly immaculate as the Floridian form. 
As stated by Casey, the faceta forms have also more of a violet lustre than 
those from Florida, and taken as a whole are sufficiently different to make it 
certain that faceta could not be Floridian. 
In regard to C. extenuata Casey, it is to be feared that the brief descrip- 
tion of scabrosa by Schaupp, repeated by the writer, has led to an absolute 
synonym. Casey, under the name eatenuata, has described a form supposed 
to differ from scabrosa by its smaller size (7.5-8.5 mm. against 10.5 mm. 
given for scabrosa), by the foves of the subsutural line bemg non-metallic
