148 Mr. J. B. Bridgman on some additions to 
My specimens were taken at Norwich in July. I have 
also seen a female taken by Mr. Billups at Box Hill on 
March 21st of this year; the antenne of this insect are 
entirely dark brown.

interstices finely reticulate; antenne slender, slightly

‘coxe unarmed, antenne ferruginous’’; it differs from
