34 THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 



in Indiana, were found along the damp, sandy or muddy margins of 

 small streams, in company with Galgtilus oculatus, a common Hemipteron, 

 which abounds in like situations. Cuaillatus, when disturbed, has a 

 more prolonged flight than any other of our Tettigince. 



The life-history of the " grouse locusts " is, as yet, very imperfectly 

 known. In the proper localities mature specimens of most of the six 

 species so far noted in Indiana can be taken almost any day in the year. 

 Tettix ornata, Say, and Tettigidea polyrnorpha, Burm, were found in 

 copulation on April i8th, and the latter species again on May 31st 3 

 while, as noted above, the half-grown young of two species were collected 

 on April ist. 



No. 18, Pezotettix- viridipes ? Walsh, Mss., of my first paper, is 

 Pezotettix viriduhis, Walsh, as I have since determined by comparison 

 with specimens of the latter taken by Prof. McNeill at Moline, 111. It 

 was the third full-grown species, other than Tettigitice taken last season, 

 having been preceded by Chortophaga viridifasciata, De Geer, Apr. 

 26th, and Arphia sulphiireus, Fab., May 20th. Two mature males of 

 P. viridtilus were taken on May 30th, and others were found at intervals 

 throughout June, but it is by no means a common species in this locality. 



FURTHER NOTES ON GELECHIA GALL^DIPLOPAPPI, AND 

 DESCRIPTION OF A NEW SPECIES OF BRACON. 



BY REV. THOMAS W. FYLES,. SOUTH QUEBEC. 



In a paper entitled "A Day in the Woods," I brought under the 

 notice of the Entomological Society of Ontario, at its annual meeting held 

 in London, on the 27th of August, 1890, the galls formed by G. gallce- 

 dip/opappi, and gave an account of the chrysalis and perfect insect. I 

 also alluded to two kinds of parasites preying upon the species. The 

 description of the moth was reproduced in the December number of the 

 Canadian Entomologist of that year (Vol. XXIL, p. 248). 



The insect has again come under my observation, and I am able to 

 furnish these further particulars concerning it : — 



The larva of the species when full grown is four lines in length. Its 

 colour is light seal-brown, and it has a dorsal line of darker brown, and a 

 few dark patches on the three last segments. Its head is black. There 

 are a few bristles on the head and along the sides. It assumes the 

 chrysalis form in the beginning of July.
