secured from the trunks of trees in a low, dense woods in Marion County. 

 They were about four feet from the ground, and one of them was be- 

 neath a chunk which was leaning against the tree. 



Paroxya hoosieri (Blatchley.) (C E., XXIV., 31 ; XXVI., 244.) 



On account of distinctive characters pertaining to the abdominal append- 

 ages of the male, Scudder regards this as a valid species. It has been 

 taken about swamps in Vigo, Fulton, and Marshall counties, Indiana, and 

 near Oberiin, Ohio. On September 22, 1894, I was much surprised to 

 find, near the border of a marsh in Vigo County, a female of this species 

 and also one of Chloealtis conspersa Harr., a few inches apart on the 

 stump of a downy poplar, Populus heterophylla L., each with the abdo- 

 men buried to the full length in the wood, but no eggs could be discov- 

 ered. Nothing has been recorded concerning the habits of oviposition 

 of the members of the genus Paroxya, and it would be surprising if they, 

 like the CJihvaltis mentioned, should seek wood rather than earth as the 

 receptive matrix for the eggs.
