Two consecutive instars arc represented in the four immature males 

 from Orange, both earlier than that exemplified by the Charlotte 

 specimen, which is in the instar preceding maturity. The records 

 from Sprint;' Creek and St. Augustine are the most southern known 

 for the species in the Atlantic coast States. 



Hadenoecus puteanus Scudder. 



'North Carolina. Thompson's Mills, X, 1909, (II. A. 



Sunburst, laic May, 1912, (C. S. Allard), 2 cf, 69, 3 juv., [U. 9. 



Brimley), 2 iuv. 9, [Brimlev Cln.|. N. M. and Hebard Cln.].

The immature females show that the dentations of the internal 

 valves of the ovipositor are not appreciably indicated until the adult 

 condition is reached. We have had before us for comparison a cotype 

 from North Carolina, received from Scudder by Bruner, in whose 

 series it was. 



The above Georgia localities in a measure connect up the two 

 previously known records of the species from the southern States, 

 i.e., North Carolina and Monticello, Mississippi. 



Ceuthophilus uhleri Scudder.

We have examined authentic material of this species and of C. 

 blatchleyi Scudder and, apparently, the supposed differential features 

 are too variable for reliance. However, we do not care to synonymize 

 the latter name, as our material is not sufficiently conclusive to war- 

 rant such action at this time. 



This species varies greatly in size in both sexes, the extremes 

 (in millimeters) of undoubtedly adult material of both sexes from 



Cabin John Run being:
