  Nearly 
  all 
  the 
  specimens 
  from 
  

   the 
  National 
  Museum 
  are 
  from 
  the 
  Riley 
  collection. 
  

  

  Dr. 
  J. 
  A. 
  Allen 
  found 
  the 
  insect 
  in 
  Iowa 
  only 
  in 
  dry 
  jirairies 
  on 
  the 
  

   grass, 
  excepting 
  that 
  the 
  least-marked 
  specimens 
  occurred 
  in 
  groves, 
  

   and 
  there 
  only. 
  

  

  Occasionally 
  a 
  specimen, 
  and 
  especially 
  a 
  female, 
  is 
  found 
  in 
  which 
  

   there 
  is 
  no 
  trace 
  of 
  ferruginous 
  on 
  the 
  tegmina, 
  which 
  are 
  then 
  green 
  

   with 
  a 
  j)allid 
  stripe 
  along 
  the 
  dividing 
  line 
  between 
  the 
  discoidal 
  and 
  

   anal 
  areas, 
  reminding 
  one 
  of 
  H. 
  virklis 
  or 
  H.festivus. 
  

  

  The 
  specimen 
  above 
  referred 
  to 
  from 
  Orizaba, 
  a 
  female, 
  differs 
  

   slightly 
  in 
  its 
  somewhat 
  abbreviated 
  tegmina. 
  and 
  the 
  mottled 
  mark- 
  

   ings 
  of 
  pallid 
  yellow 
  and 
  green 
  upon 
  the 
  lateral 
  lobes 
  of 
  the 
  prouo- 
  

   tum; 
  it 
  possibly 
  indicates 
  another 
  species.
