216 EDWARD NORTOX. 



A specimen from Connecticut has the antennas hardly half tlie 

 length of body ; distinctly fuscous beneath ; the spots on tlie thorax 

 covering most of the lobes, scutel black ; legs entirely of one color, tar- 

 si fuscous ; inner tooth' of claw large and near the tip ; wings perfectly 

 clear, costal edge hardly, if at all emarginate. It is smaller than uV. 

 vifeger, from which it does not differ much. An individual from Penn- 

 sylvania has but little black upon the vertex, the vittae on the meso- 

 thorax small and but one or two on the abdomen, the basal half only 

 of scutel black ; costa bright green, but three submarginal cells, the 

 second cross nervurc being incomplete.

 gum and some of the sutures between its segments whitish; posterior 

 tibia3 and tarsi black ; inner tooth of claws large and near to tip. 

 Wings hyaline, stigma and costa dull waxen. 



Var. a. 9 , Spot on vertex varying in size; the lower half of scutel 

 is black ; only the tip of posterior tibia) is black ; the abdomen is some-

Say remarks that this has " no obvious emargination in the costal 

 edge," but all the specimens examined have this place more or loss 

 emarginate. They also present variations in the extent of black upon 

 the tergum. A specimen from New York is reddish-yellow rather 

 than greenish in color. The black vertical spot extends back over the 

 occiput.
