A. ornatum (Say).—In the vicinity of Chicago the insect usually shows extreme depauperation, but some of the specimens from Muncie, Homer, Urbana, Quincy, Dubois and Pulaski are unusually large and robust with mediolongitudinal carina of pronotum slightly more decided than usual and are consequendy difficult to separate from small in- dividuals of acadicum acadicum. This common species was correctly recorcied by Thomas (1876) and McNeill (1891), but by the latter in addition as the synonym triangularis. The insect is to be found over all Illinois. Seventy-five males, 90 females and nine immature specimens were taken at Beach, Waukegan, Summit, Chicago, Pullman, Deep Lake, Algonquin, Elizabeth, Fulton, Bradford, Ashkum, Kappa, Loda, Paxton, Ludlow, Rantoul, Normal, Bloomington,
