94 PSYCHE [August 
Mr. Victor L. Clémence of Pasadena found ines common in Southern Arizona 
during 1908, from the middle of May till the first of August, where their habits are 
quite different from the species in California. On the desert they fly around the 
Mesquite bushes, and from here they ascend to about 6000 feet altitude in the Chirica- 
hua mountains, where they fly around a yellow flower, the name not ascertained, but 
probably a composite. Juniper is found here, but ines was not observed to frequent 
it. Mr. Clémence saw this butterfly continually while he was in Arizona, and it was 
undoubtedly breeding continuously, one brood overlapping the other; there being no 
really distinct brood. Nothing is yet known on the early stages of Callicista ines, 
and there is much to be learned concerning its biotic relations. 
THE DECTICINEAN GENUS REHNIA CAUD. (ORTHOPTERA) 
BY A. N. CAUDELL, U. S. NAT. MUSEUM. 
THe genus Rehnia was established upon two species, victoriae and spinosa, the 
first being designated as the type. Each species was known from the male only and 
was represented by the unique type, victoriae coming from Mexico and spinosa from 
the United States. 
Recently while studying the Orthoptera in the Museum of Comparative Zoology 
at Cambridge, Mass., I had the very good fortune to find female specimens of both 
the above species. Of R. victoriae I saw two females, one labelled “1221”’, indicating 
Monclova, Mexico, and one ‘‘Palmer’s assorting No. 1090,” meaning Eagle Pass, 
Texas. These localities, as well as the ones mentioned below under R. spinosa, 
are given on the authority of Mr. Henshaw, who took them from original note books. 
Of Rehnia spinosa I saw one male and two females, Palmer’s assorting No. 1012, 
Eagle Pass, Texas, all in fragments, and one perfect female labelled “Mexico, L. W. 
Sweet.” ‘Thus both species of this genus are seen to be represented in both Mexico 
and the United States. 
In both the above species of Rehnia the ovipositor is long and curved gently 
downwards, as in A pote, apically unarmed, and margined with piceous at the tip. 
The abdomens of the females of both species bear a stout backwardly curved spine 
beneath towards the tip, probably on the seventh ventral plate. ‘This spur is espe- 
cially large and noticeable in spinosa. In general appearance and structure the sexes
