86 APPLE LEAVES — CHRYSOPA SPECIES. 



which are given off from the rib vein, which are black at their bases, and those 

 on the outer side at their tips also. It is of a pale yellowish green color with 

 a light yellow head, the orange red spot on the cheeks with a black streak to- 

 wards its hind edge, and the two anterior dots on the top of the head confluent 

 with the black margins of the sockets of the antennae, which, between these 

 spots, is interrupted with tawny yellow. Its wings, expanded, measure 1.10. 

 It is much less common than the preceding species, and occurs with it in the 

 month of June. Specimens have also been sent me from Michigan by T. E. 

 Wetmore, Esq. 



11. (8.) The tawny spot on the cheeks without any black dot 

 or mark. 



The Yellow-cheeked Golden-eye ( C. fulvibucca) corresponds with the 

 O-marked golden-eye in the color of its veinlets, and the spots and marks upon 

 its head, except that no black dot or streak occurs in the tawny spot upon its 

 cheeks. Like that species also, this has an impressed line the whole length of 

 the first segment of the thorax, but here that line is crossed slightly back of 

 its middle by a straight transverse one, the ends of which on each side are 

 deep black, and a pale umber brown spot extends from this backwards, nearly 

 to the base of this segment, having an oval black dot outside of it. Forward 

 of the brown spot is a smaller one of the same color, and on the anterior mar- 

 gin on each side behind the eye, as in several of the species, are too shorfc 

 blackish lines converging and confluent at their hind ends. The second seg- 

 ment has also an impressed medial line, and two brown spots upon each side. 

 A variety occurs in which these spots last mentioned are wanting. The wings 

 expand 1.10. This species occurs the last of July and in August. 



12. (7.) Four clots only upon the top of the head, situated in 

 a transverse row. 



13. (14.) A black crescent-shaped mark under each eye.- 



The Mississippi Golden-eye (C Mississippicnsis.) The dead specimen 

 sulphur yellow. Antennae white, dull yellowish towards the tips, their sockets 

 margined with black with a tawny yellow interruption above in the middle. 

 Head with two black dots above, and one behind each eye. A black crescent 

 under each eye, its anterior horn uniting with the black margin of the antennae 

 sockets, from which point a black dash is sent downwards upon the cheek, 

 which is edged with pale tawny yellow. Thorax with spots on the first and 

 dots on the second segment analogous to those in the following species. • Legs 

 pale green, feet pale dull yellow. Wings rounded at tips; veinlets mostly 

 black, their middle pale green, those towards each end of the outer cell and 

 the two veins towards the tip entirely black. Wings expand 1.20. Taken in 

 the vicinity of Jackson, Mississippi, by my daughter, in the month of April. 



14. (13.) A black dot under each eye. Tips of the wing8 

 rounded.
