sollicitans during early September a larva that looked like that 

 of pitngens except that it had a very much longer, straight anal 

 siphon and decidedly blackish antennae. It looked like a cross 

 between territans and pungens, and so its structure proclaimed 

 it. Territans has a larger head, a longer more slender siphon 

 and is smaller ; otherwise the differences are slight. The adult 

 resembled pungens and specimens previously taken on the 

 meadow had been accepted as such ; but Mr. Coquillett decided 

 that it was nigritulus. 



During August I collected at Lahaway, with numbers of ter- 

 ritans and restuans, a smaller larva with anal gills fully twice as 

 long as usual. They were separated from the others and a 

 number of adults were bred which were also named rcstuaus. 

 They are smaller than pungens and resemble territans except 

 that they seem not quite so dark. The antenna is slender, a 

 little curved and with the small set off just below the middle. 

 The labial plate is quite characteristic and has the lateral as 

 well as the front edge serrated.* 



Of the species known to me to occur in New Jersey I lack 

 the larva of Conchyliastis niusicus only, and am doubtful of that 

 of Cnlc.\ pcrturbans. 



EXPLANATION OF PLATE. 



The figures represent the larval antenna and half the corneous plate of 

 the labium in each instance : in 3 and 4 figures of the labrum are added.

* I cannot agree with Mr. Coquillett that the insects bred from this larva 

 are restuans and have kept the examples separated without name. 



EUHAGKNIA NEBR.ASK.K, Hy. Edw. On October 5 I collected this pretty 

 red-winged Sesiid at Las Vegas, N. M., thus considerably extending its 

 known range. T. D. A. COCKERELL.
