met -with from the middle of June to near the end of 

 July of the preceding year, in different localities in 

 California. I am informed by Prof. Zeller, to whom 

 one of these supposed paler varieties has been sub- 

 mitted, that it corresponds with Q^dematopliorus creti- 

 dacfijJus, Fitch (Nox. Ins. N. Y., Reps. 1 & 2, p. 142), 

 which has been redescribed by Zeller (Verb. z.-b. Ges. 

 Wien, xxiv. p. 444), from Vancouver's Island, and 

 carefully contrasted with ffi". Uthodactylus^ Tr., and 

 ffi". rogenhoferi^ Mann. He considers it to be distinct 

 from the species above described as new. It must 

 therefore now be included among the Californian 

 Pterophoridse. I regret that in the Plates prepared 

 to accompany this pamphlet the species has not been 

 figured, owing to my having failed at first to recog- 

 nize it.
