CATALOGUE OF NORTH AMERICAN DIPTERA. 2/ 



Cecidomyia salicis n. sp., described in American Quarterly Journal of Agri- 

 culture and Science, vol. i, p. 263. 



Winter Insects of Eastern New York. In the American Journal of Agri- 

 culture and Science, vol. v, pp. 274—284. [Reprinted in Lintner's 2d N. Y. 

 Rept., 235-244.] 



N. sp. — Culex hicmalis, Chironomus, nivoriundus, Trichocera briimalis. 



Survey of Washington County, New York. In the 9th vol. of the Transac- 

 tions of the N. Y. State Agricultural Society. 



Several species occurring in that locality are mentioned in a popular 

 way. 



First and Second Report on the Noxious, Beneficial and other Insects of the 

 State of New York. Made to the State Agricultural Society, pursuant to 

 an appropriation for this purpose from the Legislature of the State. 

 Albany; 1856. With 4 plates. 



Before the publication of the Second Report, the first had been distributed 

 under the title of First Report, etc.; 1855. This work contains 21 new 

 American Diptera. 

 Third, fourth and fifth Reports on the Noxious, Beneficial and other Insects 

 of the State of New York, made to the State Agricultural Society, pur- 

 suant to an annual appropriation for this purpose from the Legislature of 

 the State. Albany; 1859. With four plates and many wood-cuts. 



Ciderebra cinasculator n. sp. and several Cecidomyiae. 

 Sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth Reports, etc., etc. Albany, 1865. With four 

 plates and several wood-cuts. 



Contains a new edition of the papers on Cecid. tritici and destructor. 



All these reports appeared successively in the Transactions of the N. Y. 

 State Agricultural Society, and were collected and issued afterwards as 

 separate volumes : Volume i, containing Reports i and 2 ; Vol. 11, Reports 

 ?i~S ; Vol. Ill, Reports 6-9. Each volume has a title-page, as given above, 

 and a complete index of the contents. In the first and third volumes the 

 pagination runs through the whole volume; in the second volume, a new 

 pagination begins with every report, but at the same time, the species suc- 

 cessively discussed are numbered and these numbers run through the whole 

 volume. For this reason, in quoting the second volume, I had to give the 

 number of the species referred to, while in quoting the other two volumes, 

 I give the page. — Dr. Fitch's following Reports, which I have seen up to 

 the 1 2th (1S67), do not contain any new species of N. A. Diptera. 



Note. — The above account of Fitch's writings is quoted bodily from 

 Osten Sacken's Catalogue. It remains to add that the Reports were con- 

 tinued to 1872. Lintner, in his First N. Y. Report, 1882, pp. 291-325, gives 

 a fuller account of the writings of Fitch. As I have copied all of Osten 

 Sacken's references, I necessarily quote his editions, although the others 

 were often earlier. 



Trupanea apivora (syn. Promachus RtcJiii) is inadvertently omitted 

 above. It is described in the 9th Report. 

 Fletcher, James. 



Reports of the Entomologist and Botanist, Central Exiieriment Farm, Canada 

 Department of Agriculture. 



A number of short references to the occurrence and habits of Diptera 

 of economic importance are to be found in this series ; the report for 1897 

 has a somewhat longer article on Psila roscc. "' The Carrot Rust-Fly," 

 196-198, figs.
