664 MOSQUITOES OF NORTH AMERICA 



" For some reason no sollicitans developed on the Newark marshes up to the 

 middle of July and not a specimen was seen or sent in by any correspondent 

 from the towns where cantator swarmed. On the Earitan meadows one section 

 developed a small brood in June, and this sent a few specimens to Kew Bruns- 

 wick a few days thereafter. 



" South of Barnegat Bay sollicitans equaled cantator, but developed a little 

 later, so that the first arrival reached Lahaway May 23d, and after a day of 

 steady south wind and high temperature the morning of the 39th found them 

 present in force." 



The males have been observed by Professor Smith to visit the flowers of wild 

 cherry in numbers and Dr. C. E. Ely has taken the females at sugar-bait when 

 collecting moths.
