MlKIDAE OF THE NEVADA TEST SlTE 205 Genus Stittocapsus Knight Stittocapsus franscriae Knight Fig. 22 Stittocapsus franscriae Knight, 1942:156. This species was described from Mohawk, Arizona (L. L. Stitt), where the bug was breed- ing on Frameria dumosa Torr. This species of plant is at the test site, occuring around Mer- cury, Rock Valley, Jackass Flats and French- man Flat (Beatley. ), so the bug may well occur at the test site.

Genus Closterocoris Uhler Clostcrocoris amoenus (Provancher) Fig. 20 Pycnopterna amoena Provancher, 1887:114. Clostcrocoris ornata Uhler, 1890:77. Closterocoris amoenus Van Duzee, 1912:321. Closterocoris amoenus Van Duzee, 1917:367. This species is common in the southern half of California and could easily occur in southern Nevada. It was reported as occurring in the eastern part of the United States and Canada in the early records, but I have never found this species among material collected in the eastern states during the past fifty years. It raises the question as to whether some early specimens were mislabeled as to the place of origin. Genus Ectopiocerus Uhler Ectopiocerus anthracinus Uhler Ectopiocerus anthracinus Uhler, 1890:73.
