81. Ch. harrisii. 



Chrysopa harrisii Fitch, Report I, 90. Chrysopa perla Harris, Ins. New 

 England, 215.

 Hal). New York, in July and August (Asa Fitch). 



32. Ch. externa ! 



Chrysopa externa Hagen ! 



Greenish-yellow; thorax and abdomen with a middle, yellow 

 vitta ; the mouth anteriorly and the sides sanguineous ; antennas 

 fulvous, yellowish at base ; wings narrow, acuminate, fimbriated 

 with green ; all the veins green ; the divisory-veinlet of the third 

 cubital areole not reaching the first transverse veinlet of the first 

 radial sector. 



Length to tip of wings 14 millim. Alar expanse 26 millim. 



Hob. Washington (Osten Sacken); Mexico; California. 



May not this be Ch. harrisii? the wings, however, are narrower. 

 The species has the divisory veinlet not reaching the first trans-

 is perhaps this species (from Brazil, Surinam, Mexico) ; but it 

 differs in having fewer gradate veins.

 ticle whitish ; wings rounded at the apex, pterostigma green, veins 

 all green. (From the description of Dr. Fitch.)
