208 ENTOMOLOGICAL NEWS. [July, ’12 
are I1-jointed, the only characteristic mentioned that would 
serve to show that the genus was different from Anthemus 
Howard. However, there now being no doubt as regards the 
identity of Anthemiella with Parallelaptera, the characteristics 
of the latter become more evident, since the former name was 
proposed especially for the reason that its type species bore a 
long marginal vein in the fore wing (about seven times longer 
than broad, in the type Anthemus only about twice longer than 
its width). Hence Parallelaptera Enock differs primarily from 
<lnthemus Howard in bearing a longer marginal vein of the 
fore wing and in having r1i-jointed antenne in the male; 
secondarily in having longer funicle joints and nearly naked 
fore wings (as regards discal ciliation). 
Parallelaptera rex (Girault) differs from P. panis in gen- 
eral coloration, being black marked with golden yellow, in 
having funicle joints 1 and 2 unequal and doubtless in other 
details but I am unable to detect these from the descriptions.

! MyM aripaE. 
(1). In the paper titled “A New Polynema from Mexico,” published 
in Entomo.iocicaL News, Philadelphia, Volume XXII, October, ro1I, 
p. 358, last line female should read male.* This paper describes Poly- 
nema aspidiots Girault. 
(2). In the paper titled “Descriptions of North American Mymari- 
dae with Synonymic and Other Notes on Described Genera and Spe- 
cies,” published in the Transactions of the American Entomological 
Society, Philadelphia, Volume XXXVII, pp. 253-324, the following: 
Page 278, line 21, Anthemis read Anthemus. 
Page 284, line 10, nigellus read nigrellus. 
Page 291, paragraph 8—In regard to Anagrus columbi Perkins, I 
should state that ] have seen the type or at least original specimen 
which is mounted in balsam and in the collections of the Experiment 
Station of the Hawaiian Sugar Planters’ Association at Honolulu; an 
examination of it does not lead me to change the opinion concerning 
its status as expressed in this paragraph.
