The type is with Dr. Bethune. The species has been referred with 

 more or less doubt to myrtilli Linn., and it may be that species. I am 

 by no means satisfied that such is the case, however, and prefer to re- 

 tain Dr. Bethune's name until careful comparisons can be made.

The type of Grote and Eobinson's species should ^be in the collection 

 of the American Entomological Society, and Mr. Strecker speaks of 

 seeing it there in 1873. I have not found it from 1882, when I made 

 my first notes on the collection, to 1891, when I again went over all the 

 arrauged material and found some few species previously overlooked.
