Proctotrypoids With Wings Folded Upon Emergence (Hym.) 



From a note made in August, 1899, it appears that a species of Sceli- 

 onidae was obtained from some lepidopterous eggs brought in from 

 the field which upon emerging had the wings folded, later spreading 

 as usual. 



Callosamia promethea Drury (Lepid.) 



A number of cocoons of this species taken at Annapolis, Maryland, 

 February, igoo, and confined indoors at nearly normal temperature 

 (in an attic), commenced to give forth adults on May 8 following. 

 The cocoons were found in forest trees and wild cherrv.

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 entomologj' will not be noted; 

 but contributions to anatomy, physiologj' 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, and are all 

 dated the current year unless otherwise noted, always excepting those 

 appearing in the January and February issues of the News, which are

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.
