126 THK CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 



" I find on a study of the specimen this time received, that it is an O71- 

 cocnemis, and further it looks remarkably like a species which I received 

 from Mr. Bean, from McLean, British Columbia, and which I called viri- 

 ditincta from the beautiful greenish tinge of the scales covering the sur- 

 face. Looking at this specimen to-day I find that this greenish or mossy 

 appearance is rapidly disappearing, and that in an old specimen I cari 

 understand that there will be little or none of it to be seen." Whilst 

 farther on he remarks: "It is certainly somewhat interesting and peculiar 

 that you should have found at Hamilton the same species under what it 

 seems to me must be widely different conditions. The matter is of 

 further interest because this makes the second species of this genus which 

 has been found in what may be called the Eastern States, all the others 

 coming from the western plateaus or from the mountains." As a coinci- 

 dence, I may state that the three or four specimens of Oncocnemis Saim- 

 dersiana which I have taken were secured in the same locality, and also 

 feeding on the Golden-rod.
