Longs Peak Inn, July 21, at flowers of Scdiim stenopetaliim 

 {IV. P. Cockerel!) . Runs in the Rocky Mountain key (Bull. 

 94, Colo. Agr. Exper. Station) to 65, but is quite distinct from 

 iV. lihata, coloradcnsis or mera. On account of the structure 

 of the antennae it falls near N. alpha Ckll., from which it is 

 easily known by the markings. 



Melectidae. 

 Phileremus americanus Cress. H., 1 $. 



Anthophoridae. 



Anthophora smithii Cress. L., 1 $ . This differs from the 

 New Mexico race (cardui CklL) by having the clypeus, etc., clear 

 white (cream-color in cardui), and the eyes purplish-gray (pale green 

 in cardui). 



Clisodon terminalis Cress. L., 2 9. T. S., 1 9. L. P. T., 

 1 9. 



Melissodes kelloggi n. sp. 



$. Length about 9 mm. Runs in my table of Melissodes (Trans. 

 Am. Ent. Soc, xxxii, p. 76) to M. rivalis Cress., but is smaller and 

 otherwise different. The general aspect is that of M. agilis Cress., 

 1)ut it is readily distinguished by the dark purplish or blue-green (not 

 pale green or pea-green) eyes, the entirely black labrum and base of 

 mandibles, the darker antennae (flagelhim black above) and the dark 

 fuscous nervures. Compared with subagilis Ckll., it is at once dis- 

 tinguished by the color of eyes and antennae. The thorax has very 

 pale ochreous tinted hair, with no dark hairs on the dorsum. 



Longs Peak Inn, July 19 and 21 (T. D. A. and IV. P.

 of the Long's Peak region.
