721. Clisiocampa sp. ; see 4th Eep. Colo. Biol. Asso'n. 



The larva of C. californica, when newly hatched, is about 2 mm. long, 

 dnll black, with long pale hairs. 



AGARISTID-E. 



722. Alypia lorquinii G. and R., Rosita (Nash). Also at Marshall Pass (Foster). 



At lower altitudes this species seems to be replaced by A. octomaculata, 

 which Mr. Nash found at Pueblo, and Mrs. Cusack at Colorado Springs. 



COSSIDJE. 



723. Hypopta bertholdi Grote, Cusack Ranch, frequent. 



Several specimens of a moderately large Cossid larva, red in color, with 

 a curious caudal horn having an upward curve, were found near the 

 Cusack Ranch on April 1, 1888. 



HEPIAlilD^. 



724. Hepialus hyperboreus Moeschl. 



NOTODONTID-^ . 



725. Cerura sp. 



I am sorry my list of the Borabycoid groups is so incomplete. The late 

 Mr. W. S. Foster gave the following list of species which he had taken 

 at Salida, in the lower mid-alpine of Chaffee County, about thirty-five 

 miles northwest of Wet Mountain Valley,— yl«acMS gloveri, Gloveria 

 arizonensis, Seirarctia clio, Halisidota trigona, H. argentata, H. amhigua, 

 Ctenucha venosa. Cossus reticulatus, Arachiiis picta and Eiiprepia caia 

 var. americana. Heniileuca maia var. nevadensis was taken by Mr. Nash 

 in Huerfano County (which borders on Custer County to the south) 

 and at Pueblo. Ecpantheria reducta (= permaculata), which has been 

 recorded from the Platte Canon, was also found at Salida by Mr. 

 Foster.*

* Dr. A. S. Packard, in Ann. N. Y. Acad. Sci. May, 1893, pp. 81-82, 89, gives an 

 account of the larvffi of two moths new to our list. These were found in the 

 vicinity of West Cliff, and are identified as— (1) Ecpantheria permaadata (Pack.) 

 (2) Ctenucha cressonana Grote 7
