on inside, hind tibiae with five spines; abdomen above black centered 

 broadly with orange tipped with brown, under side brown sprinkled 

 lighter; fore wings brown, veins prominent; hind wings clear, broadly 

 based with pink and tipped with fuscous." 



As saxatilis was taken by Van Duzee in California on 

 pine we may suspect that the host of v emails will prove to 

 be similar. 



THE GENUS CALYPTOPROCTUS SPINOLA 



This genus was erected by Spinola in 1839, the name 

 being derived from the Greek and signifies "hidden anus." 

 There is only a single species known from the United States. 



Briefly characterized as follows: Head very large, forming a 

 narrow border, rounded in front and flattened on top, a little con- 

 cave. Pro- and mesothorax feebly unicarinate longitudinally in the 

 middle. Elytra more or less opaque at the base, the rest transparent, 

 with opaque spots. Abdomen large, more or less depressed, slightly 

 keeled in the middle; the fifth dorsal plate of the female nearly as 

 long as the three preceding segments taken together, operculiform, 

 large enough to cover the abdominal extremity; this plate presenting 

 no particular development in the male.
