The type is with Dr. Bethune. The species has been referred with 

 more or less doubt to myrUlli Linn., and it may be that species. I am 

 by no means satisfied that such is the case, however, and x^'efer to re- 

 tain Dr. Bethune's name until careful comparisons can be made.

The type of Grote and Robinson's species should be in the collection 

 of the American Entomological Society, and Mr. Strecker speaks of 

 seeing it there in 1873. I have not found it from 1882, when I made 

 my first notes on the collection, to 1891, when I again went over all the 

 arranged material and found some few species previously overlooked.
