head. Scattering hairs present on the Jiead. Body as a whole pale 

 flesh color. Cervical shield light brown, with a longitudinal dark 

 brown stripe on each side, these stripes not being sharply defined 

 on their upper sides. A longitudinal light line runs along the middle 

 of the cervical shield. Dorsum with a median narrow^, light, longi- 

 tudinal stripe running the entire length of the body from the cervical 

 shield to the supra-annal plate. 



Each side of the bod} with a rather broad light stripe running 

 from the hind margin of the cervical shield to the front margin of the 

 supra-anal shield, the lower margins of these stripes being considerably 

 above the spiracles. Ventral side of body light, with dark brown legs 

 on the thoracic segments. First three abdominal segments somewhat 

 more pinkish than those of the rest of the body. Spiracles mostly 

 black. 



The second thoracic segment with two setae on each side of the 

 dorsum, all four of these setae being placed in the same transverse 

 plane. Third thoracic segment wdth two seta-bearing brown dots on 

 each side of the dorsum all in the same transverse line across the body. 

 Each of the first eight abdominal segments with two pairs of brown 

 setae-bearing dots on the dorsum, the dots of the hinder pair being in 

 most cases smaller and more widely separated than those of the front 

 pair. Supra-anal shield light brown with the extreme sides somewhat 

 stronglv darkened. The preanal segment with two pairs of setae on 

 the dorsum, those of the front pair being much more widely separated 

 than those of the hind pair. There are three or four noticeable brown 

 spots on each side of most of the segments, grouped mostly around 

 the spiracles where these are present. 



The larvae of this species vary in the shade of the ground color 

 much as do those of P. nitcla, some being very light (almost whitish), 

 in Avhich case the tubercles are very noticeable by contrast, and others 

 being quite dark.

Length, 14 mm. General color light chestnut brown. Surface 

 mostly smooth. Widest across the thorax, measuring about 4 mm. 

 there. Wing cases reaching back more than half way across the fourth 

 abdominal segment. The fourth abdominal segment dorsally, and the 

 fifth, sixth and seventh segments all the way around strongly punctate 

 for some distance back from their anterior margins, the punctured sur-
