146 THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 



I have three species of Trochilium, which are still unnamed. 

 .No. i answers well to the description of the male of T cxitiosa, Say, 

 but unless its larva lives in some other tree than the peach or cherry, it 

 cannot be this insect, as these fruit trees are not cultivated in the Quebec 

 region. This species is rare. 



No. 2 may be the Trochilium acerni of Clemens, described in Morris' 

 Synopsis, page 330. It is an uncommon insect. The " Northern States'' 

 is given as its habitat by Clemens. 



No. 3. This ^Egerian is perhaps the Trochilium pyramidcUis of Walker 

 (C. B. M., VIII. 40) described on page 331 of Morris' Synopsis, though 

 the locality given there is far north of Quebec. It is a rare species. 



Tliyris metadata, Harris. Very rare. June. . 



ZVG.'ENID^E. 



Alypia Langtonii, Couper. Taken by him and described in the 

 Canadian Naturalist for 1865, page 64. Not uncommon. 



Eudryas grata, Fab. This moth is abundant some seasons. In 1868 

 I saw them in large numbers on hops, in a small garden. No grape-vines 

 were in the vicinity. This year I found numerous larvae on wild grape" 

 vines. 



Ctenucha virginica, Charpentier. Common. 



Lycomorpha pho/us, Drury. (Glaucopis pholus). Not common. I 

 have only taken it in one locality — a rocky ridge where lichens grow 

 plentifully, about five miles from the city. 



Note. — This arrangement of the Zygcenidaz is in accordance with 

 Packard's " Notes on the Zygaenidae" in Proc. Essex Ins., 1864. 



MICRO-LEPIDOPTERA.
