Notes on Zeuzera pyrina, Fabr. 

 By J. B. Angelman. 



August 14th, 1887, I took at an electric light in Newark, N. J., 

 three specimens of this insect. Previous to that time I had never seen 

 a specimen of the insect taken in America, nor had it been taken so far 

 as I could learn by any of the Newark collectors. 



In 1888 I took the insect again. The first specimen was taken on 

 June 14th, and I continued taking others at intervals up to as late as 

 Sept. 27th. Altogether I took 45 males and i female. The latter was 

 not taken at light as were the others but was found on the side-walk 

 after it had been stepped on by some passer-by. I learn from various 

 collectors that it was taken quite commonly this year at the electric 

 lights, and extending over a considerable length of time. 



We can from the above be assured of two things: ist,^ — that Zeu- 

 zera pyriiia, Fabr., is permanently settled with us and exists in consider- 

 able numbers and a considerable range of country about New York. 

 2nd, — its time of appearance varies very greatly as I took it off and on 

 for a period of 106 days during the season of 1888.
