AN OMISSION. 



In my "Essay" 7 on Aradus I have noted a few clerical errors, only 

 one of which, fortunately, is of importance. On page 41 the Rhode 

 Island and Connecticut records of .lr<i<tits n>!<iistus are omitted and the 

 following should be inserted after line 9 : 



RHODE ISLAND: Kingston, May (J. Barlow). CONNECTICUT: Meri- 

 den, V, 10, 1910 (A. B. Champlain) ; Xew Haven, il, _'6, 1911 (A. B. 

 Champlain) ; Rainbow, V, 7, 1914 (M. P. Zappe) ; Stonington, V, 1914 

 (M. P. Zappe). 



On page 29, line 16, for p. 17 read p. 50; and on pages 32, 66, etc., 

 Ottawa is placed in Quebec instead of in Ontario.

Lcctotypc : $ , Mass., U. S. N. M. No. 25213. This specimen 

 bears Uhler's original label and should be formally designated 

 as the type of the species, especially in view of the very inade- 

 quate original description, which refers only to the antennal 

 structure and to the granulation of the surface. A female 

 specimen with the same data is designated allotype.
