Numerous specimens from a Silver Pheasant, Phasianus 

 nycthemerus, sent to the Department of Zoology of this 

 University by Mr. A. C. Robison of San Francisco, 

 Calif. This large and striking Goniodes of the pheasants 

 (Giebel's specimens were found by Kollar on Phasianus 

 nycthemerus, and Piaget has found it abundantly on 

 Tragofian satyrus) is characterized by the peculiar bi- 

 partite appendage on the first segment of the antenna of 

 the male. It may be readily recognized by comparison 

 with the figure of the female which I give. My speci- 

 mens measure; Male: Body, length 3.34 mm., width 2 

 mm.; head, length .9 mm., width 1.32 mm. Female: 

 Body, length 3.75 mm., width 2. mm.; head, length 

 1.03 mm., width 1.34 mm. These measurements are 

 markedly greater than those given by Piaget; his male 

 specimens averaging 2.75 mm. long, and the females 3.1 

 mm. loner. 



Goniodes mammillatus Rudow. (Plate lxix, fig. 2.)

Two females from a California Partridge, Callipepla 

 calif or nica (Mountain View, California). This striking 

 species was first described by Rudow from a specimen 

 taken from Pelecanus ruficollisl (a dried skin in some 

 museum). Taschenberg, who collected a number of 

 specimens from Calliftepla calif ornica (skins?), says: 

 " Wenn die Art wirklick wie Rudow angiebt, auf Pele- 

 £anus ruficollis angetroffen ist, so ist es in Folge zufalliger
