 paying special attention to the eastern species. Mr. Pearsall's 

 collection contained quite large series of a number of species, 

 taken for the most part in the Catskill Mountains, and we were 

 fortunate in securing for study the material in the collections

 the courtesy of Mr. Wm. Beutenmiiller ; that in the Academy 

 of Natural Sciences, Philadelphia, through Dr. Henry Skinner,
