1914} Pupe of Ceratocampide and Hemileucide 287 
Anisota virginiensis Drury. Color dark brown to black; 
abdominal segments 1 to 4 and 8 to 10 with few spines and more 
large circular punctures as compared with the remainder of 
the surface; each antenna with two rows of minute spines on 
the central axis, the length three times the greatest width; 
face parts prominently elevated above tHe level of the ap- 
pendages, an elevated densely spinose ridge extending cephalad 
from the proximo-lateral angles of the labrum to the proximal 
end of each antenna with a large spine at its cephalic end; 
epicranial area with one large spine and several smaller ones 
on each side the meson near the proximal end of each antenna; 
labrum variable, usually six-sided, with two small tubercules 
or spines, the width greater than the length, pointed at distal 
end; maxillae with the length and breadth approximately 
equal, each half quadrilateral; median thoracic line distinct 
on all segments; prothorax with the median line slightly ele- 
vated; mesothorax without prominent spines, usually with two 
tubercule scars on each side the meson, sometimes spine-like, 
seldom all prominent; metathoracic tubercules wedge-shaped, 
irregularly impressed, black and polished, each extending 
less than half the distance from the meson to the margin of 
the first pair of wings; abdominal segments 1 to 3 with an 
indistinct row of minute spines along, both cephalic and caudal 
margins of the segment; abdominal segments 5 to 7 with the 
cephalic margins punctate and produced into flange-like 
ridges projecting cephalad and set with stout spines less than 
one-sixth the length of the segment; caudal margins of segments 
4 to 7 with a slight depression, the elevation adjacent to the 
transverse conjunctiva set with two rows of minute spines; 
eighth segment with a transverse ridge in the middle of the 
segment set with spines, with slightly larger spines on the 
lateral margins of the segment; ninth abdominal segment 
with prominent lateral spines and the tenth with a prominent 
hooked spine on each side the base of the cremaster; cremaster 
longitudinally rugose, bifurcate for less than one-fourth its 
length, the tips divergent. Length 7-8”; cremaster about 
one-seventh the total length; girth less than length. 
Anisota stigma Fabricius. Color dark reddish brown; 
antennae in both sexes with the length about three times the 
greatest width, central axis bearing a row of minute spines;
