Euparyphus tetraspilus Loew (Diptera). 



As an error occurs in the minutes of the June meeting of the Amer- 

 ican Entomological Society (Ent. News, xxvi, p. 376, October, 1915), 

 I thought that, while correcting it, it would be appropriate to publish 

 the available records of capture of this species. I captured the first 

 and only New Jersey specimen of this species recorded at Boonton, 

 Morris County, June 14, 1901 (Ins. N. J., p. ^2)7, iQio). On June 2, 

 1908, the first recorded Pennsylvania specimen of this fly was caught 

 by myself in Philadelphia, resting on a window pane — accidental of 

 course. Mr. Harbeck and my brother, Chas. T. Greene, visited a 

 small swamp near Thorp's Lane, upper Roxborough, Philadelphia, 

 June II, 191 1, and found several specimens on the "arrow leaves." 

 Later Mr. Harbeck, Mr. Haimbach and I visited this swamp, June 

 13 and 27, 1915, where T captured about twenty-five specimens on the 

 same plant. I do not remember the exact circumstances under which 

 the Boonton specimen was caught, but as most of my collecting was 

 done along the Rockaway River and the "arrow leaves" were common 

 there, it is almost certain that it was on these plants in which it prob- 

 ably breeds. Subsequently I visited the swamp alone July 6th and 

 found none, but in their place Odontoiiiyta virgo Wied. was numerous. 

 The following records may be added : Danville, Pennsylvania, June 22, 

 1915, A. B. Champlain ; Aweme, Manitoba, Canada, June 21, 1911, E. 

 Criddle; Calgary, Alta., August i, 1907, and Ottawa, Canada, July 2, 

 1907, Dr. Skinner ; Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, June 4, 1908, and "N. 111."

E^ntomological Literature. 



COMPILED BY E. T. CRESSON, JR., AND J. A. G. REHN. 



Under the above head it is intended to note papers received at the 

 Academy of Natural Sciences, of Philadelphia, pertaining to the En- 

 tomology of the Americas (North and South), including Arachnida and 

 Myriopoda. Articles irrelevant to American entomology will not be noted; 

 but contributions to anatomy, physiology and embryology of insects, how- 

 ever, whether relating to American or exotic species, will be recorded. 

 The numbers in Heavy- Faced Type refer to the journals, as numbered in 

 the following list, in which the papers are published. 



All continued papers, with few exceptions, are recorded only at their 

 first installments. 



The records of systematic papers are all grouped at the end of each 

 Order of which they treat, and are separated from the rest by a dash. 



Unless mentioned in the title, the number of new species or forms are 

 given at end of title, within brackets.
