NEUROPTERA. 



MEGALiOPTERA. 



SIALID^. 

 Corydalis liitea Hagen. 



Many specimens of various sizes from Jalapa and Cuernavaca iu 

 June. The mandibles of the male vary in development as in our 

 common C. cornuta. 



Corydalis soror Hagen. 



One example of this handsome species from Cuernavaca, June. 

 It is very easily recognized by the inflated sides of the head. 



^feiironiiis taieroglyphiciis Earabr. 



Several specimens of this striking species from Cuernavaca, June. 

 I have seen another specimen of this species from Mexico under a 

 manuscript name. The dried specimens are yellowish or whitish, 

 but Mr. Barrett says they are bright green when alive. 



Sialiw inexieaiia n. sp.— Head reddish yellow, black each side behind the 

 eyes, basal joints of antennae yellow, rest dark brown. Pronotum reddish, 

 thorax dark brown ; legs rather paler brown ; abdomen black ; wings nearly 

 black, veins jet black, some pale spaces in some of the larger cells. Antennae 

 very hairy, rather larger in the middle than at base, tip fine. Wings plainly 

 narrower than in .9. infumata, venation similar to that species, but with fewer 

 costal cross-veinlets. Length 16 mm. 



One specimen from Jalapa, Vera Cruz, Augast. Distinct by the 

 bright color of the head and prothorax. 



STEGOPTERA. 

 HEIVIEROBOIDEA. 



CONIOPTERYGID^. 

 Coniopteryx barretti Banks. 



Several specimens from Amecameca, June. Larger than our 

 species. 



MANTISPID^. 

 Iflantispa varia Erich. 



One example from Cuernavaca. It is very close to our common 

 M. hrunnea.
