Pachyscelus laevigatus Say. At East Falls Church, Virginia, the lar- 

 vae of this species were found mining in the leaves of Lespedeza virginica, 

 Meibomia obtusa and M. viridiflora. The larva makes a small round cell 

 between the layers of the leaf, where it passes the winter. In spring 

 transformation occurs, and the adult emerges by the lifting of a small 

 hinged lid. 



New or Interesting Psyllidae of the Pacific 



Coast (Honiop.). 



By D. L. CRAWFORD, College of Hawaii, Honolulu. 



Mr. W. M. Giffard, of Honolulu, has during the past few 

 years collected a considerable number of Psyllidse in Cali- 

 fornia and Oregon, representing some twenty-four species, 

 one of which is new and another represents a new variety 

 of a previously known species. Several others are more or

 furnished. 



The types of the new species and variety are deposited in 

 the Museum of the California Academy of Sciences, San 

 Francisco, by request of Mr. Giffard.
