A single female of this curious Loeustid was taken October 11, 

 1902, near Millersville, Marion County, by Philip Baker, of Indian- 

 apolis, who kindly presented it to me. I had seen one in Vigo 

 County ten years before but had failed to effect its capture. It has 

 been heretofore taken only in Marydand, Delaware and the Caro- 

 linas. Near Baltimore, according to Uhler, it appears in the larval 

 state as early as the first of August and reaches maturity the latter 

 part of September. It is there found upon oak trees, where it is said 

 to spend the day time curled up in the leaves. It will probably be 

 found to occur in small numbers on oaks throughout the southern 

 half of Indiana. 



Since the above was in type, two pairs of the half grown young of 

 C. caroUnensis have been taken, one pair from near ]\[itchell, Law- 

 rence County, on July 15th; the other from near Montezuma, Parke 

 County, on July 22d. Both pairs were beaten from oak bushes while 

 collecting beetles.
