Hormiscus Gemminger and von Harold, 7872:2738. Entomops Gemminger and von Harold, 1872:2738. Toxotropis LeConte, I87 6:397 . Gonops LeConte, 1876:398. Eusphyrus LeConte, 1876 :398. This genus contains 21 species in North America, only two of which occur in Canada. The genus has never been revised. Species in this genus may be recognized by the strongly notched anterior margin of the eyes; by the strongly curving pronotal antebasal carina, which is closer to the base at the centre than at the sides; by the short and quadrate rostrum; and by the lack of a lateral carina on the pronotum. Many of the species bear a deceptive resemblance to species inTrigonorhinus,b:ut the wide, quadrate rostrum, the lack of a lateral pronotal carina, and the distinctly notched eye distinguish Ormiscus. Description. Pubescence abundant. Head not retractile. Rostrum (Fig. 29) prolonged, quadrate; sides straight, diverging; apex distinctly wider than distance between eyes; central portion ofapex not produced. Antennae inserted on sides of rostrum, the insertion remote from eye. Eyes lateral, distinctly emarginate opposite antennal insertion (Fig. 30). Pronotum wider than long; lateral margins rounded, not carinate; antebasal carina sharply elevated, remote from elytral bases (Fig. 32) or fitting closely to elytral bases (Fig. 33); surface punctured or granulate. Elytra with sides parallel; apex broadly rounded; striae punctured in even rows. Tarsal claws cleft, with minute inner tooth (Fig. 38). T5rpe species. Ormiscus uariegatus Waterhouse, monotypic. Comments. Valentine (1960) gives a checklist of the species in this genus. Key to species of Ormiscus in Canada 1. Length (excluding head) 1.5-2.0 mm.

Length L5-2.0 mm (head excluded). Integument Iight to dark reddish brown; legs generally lighter' Elytral pubescence white or gray, with dark brown setae; white or gray setae usually more abundani, forming vague transverse line on basal third; posterior third variously mottled; brown setae in basal spot and large transverse median spot, and scattered on posterior two-thirds. Frons strongly conyex, with large, shallow, closely placed punctures. Rostrum distinctly flattened, broad; surface as on frons. Pronotum 1.2 times wider than long, widest at basal angles; sides arcuate to broadly rounded anterior margin; disc weakly convex before antebasal carina; surface smooth, with dense, shallow, rather large, close set punctures; antebasal carina remote from base, acutely elevated, emarginate. Elytra about 1.3 times longer than wide; sides parallel on basal two-thirds; apex broadly rounded; striae punctured, not impressed, with deeply impressed moderately large punctures; interstriae about as wide as striae, smooth' with scattered minute points. Distribution. New Brunswick to Ontario, south through the eastern United States to Texas and Florida and west to Nebraska. New Brunswick: Kouchibouguac National Park' Ontario: Arnprior, Brockville, Leamington, Prince Edward County, and Rondeau Provincial Park. Quebec: Hudson Heights. 49
