Clirysopa rufilabriw Burm. 



One specimen, apparently not different from our forms, from 

 Cuernavaca, Morelos, May. 



C'hrysopa externa Hagen. 



One example from Tehachapi. Probal)ly the same as Hagen had 

 from Mexico, but Hagen's specimen from D. C. was probably C. 

 harrini Fitch. The species of this group are extremely close, and 

 the character given for C externa is sometimes present in various 

 species.

One example from Charvarillo, Vera Cruz. 



9leleoiiia innovata Hagen.

One male from Amecameca, June. Described by Hagen as a 

 Chrysopa, and I had overlooked the fact that in the description are 

 the characters tliat place it in Meleoma.
