nor are the claws fully developed. This false member is on the 

 left foreleg. 



Dorcus parallelus Say. 



In Mr. H. G. Klages's collection of Coleoptera of Jeannette, 

 Pa. , there is a specimen of this species which I believe is of the 

 male sex that has two sets of well-developed tarsal joints and 

 claws. This is on the right foreleg. 



Orthosoma brunneum Forst. 



A specimen of this I took, which proved to be a female on 

 examination of the genitalia and other characteristic points, 

 except in the antennae. The left is that of a male, while that 

 on the right is female. 



The number of joints are the same, but, as coleopterists 

 know, that in this species of prionid the sexual character in 

 the antennae is that the male have longer and heavier antennae 

 than are found in the female. While in the female the joints 

 are shorter, and not nearly so heavy, the number of joints in 

 both sexes are the same. 



Neoclytus caproea Say. 



In the Hamilton collection, which is now at rest in the 

 Carnegie Museum, of Pittsburg, there is a specimen of this 

 species that has three antennae, one on the left side and two on 

 the right. With close inspection I noticed that the basal joint 

 is normal in the latter, and from this two joints branch out, 

 both continuing to the end, forming two normal and well- 

 developed antennae. 



This specimen, Professor Jerome Schmitt has informed the 

 writer, was taken at St. Vincent, Westmoreland County, Pa. 



Cyclocephala immacnlata Oliv. 



This I captured on July i2th, 1900, under the electric light 

 in Charleroi. I believe this is the first record of this insect 

 being taken in this locality. 



Hoplosia mibila Lee, etc. 



From May the 3oth until June 2oth, 1900, I took 47 speci- 

 mens of this pretty longicorn. I also took quite a number of
