CHERRY BEETLES. 529 



20. Tineid lai'va. 



This species crumples tlie leaf on one side of the under side of a leaf, 

 eating the parenchyma, and leaving a bare dead spot, lining the tent 

 with a white silken web. 



Larva. — Closely similar to the foregoing, and perhaps a pale variety of the same 

 species, or in the penultimate molt. Body tapering towards each end. The head 

 pale amber, and the body pale pea-green ; the tubercles a little larger, but arranged 

 in much the same way as the preceding species. The black spots on the prothoracic 

 segment very distinct, while the dorsal hairs are as distinct as the lateral ones. 

 Length, lO™'". 



21. Crepidodera violacea. 



Mr. W. L. Devereaux, of Clyde, T*5. Y., writes me that this beetle is 

 " very plenty on new forming foliage in spring, feeding extensively on 

 the leaves and pairing; the larva is difficult to find, but I have bred 

 them on cherry leaves in a cage. I think this species is distinct from 

 the willow flea-beetle C. helxines.^^ 



22. Galeruca sanguinea. 



We observed this leaf-beetle in great abundance at Berlin Falls, 

 N. H., September 13, eating holes in the leaves. 



The beetle. — This species differs from 6r. marginella, which is figured in all its stages 

 in our Guide to the Study of Insects, p. 505, by its deeper, brick-red color ; the antennae 

 and legs are black, and the wing-covers are coarsely punctured. Length 5™™.
