138 THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 



Z. <x?wtherceseme?iella. N. sp. 



Antennae white ; the basal joint of the outer surface of the second 

 joint of the palpi, an annulus before the middle of the third joint, and 

 its tip, brown (the third joint sometimes entirely brown). Head white. 

 Fore wings sordid whitish, dusted and overlaid with pale fuscous, with 

 four short longitudinal black lines along the middle of the wing, the first 

 of which is on the fold before the basal fourth ; the second is about the 

 middle ; the third is about the apical fourth, and the fourth is at the 

 apex. These lines are made of raised scales. There are also two black- 

 ish raised tufts, one of which is just before the dorsal ciliae, and the other 

 is a little further back. Hind wings fuscous. The first pair of legs is 

 brown on the anterior surface and whitish behind, second and third pair 

 whitish marked externally with brown. The black lines along the middle 

 of the wing remind one somewhat of similar lines in the European Z. 

 phragmitella, and Z. cephalonthiella Chamb. has similar lines. This 

 species, however, is quite distinct from both. Al. ex. rs to A inch. Sent 

 to me by Miss Murtfeldt, from St. Louis.

ENTOMOLOGICAL CLUB OF THE A. A. A. S. 



We desire to call the attention of entomologists of the U. S. and 

 Canada to the fact that the Entomological Club of the American Asso- 

 ciation for the Advancement of Science will meet at Buffalo, N. Y., on the 

 22nd of August, in some room that will be provided by the local com-- 

 mittee of the Association. All interested in the subject of Entomology 

 are invited to attend, and to repair at first to the Tifft House for 

 instructions. J. L. LeConte, Pres. 



C. V. Rilev, Sec. 



In view of the fact that questions of great importance relating to the 

 present and future well-being of Entomology are likely to be discussed at 

 the forthcoming meeting of the Entomological Club, we trust that all the 

 " brethren of the net " who can possibly attend from Canada, as well as 

 the U. S., will endeavor to be present. — Ed. C. E.
