Family STAPHYLINIDAE 

 Gnypeta boulderensis Casey, Mem. Coleop., II, p. 167. T.L Boulder County, Colo. 

 Colonel Casey has at different times described many beetles from Boulder County, 

 without citing any collector. I am indebted to him for the information that they 

 were collected by Mrs. Casey, "on the mountain side." 

 Atheta (Homalotusa) coloradensis Casey, t. c, p. 81. T. 1. Red Cliff (Wickham). 

 A. (Nemota) marcescens Casey, t. c, p. 122. T. 1. Boulder County (Mrs. Casey). 



Family COCCINELLIDAE 

 Hyperaspis lateralis flammula Nunenmacher, Entom. News, Feb., p. 72. Type from 

 Montana; also at Golden, Colo. The true H. lateralis Mulsant occurs in our moun- 

 tains; last summer it was bred from Artemisia tridenlata collected at 9,000 ft. on 

 the mountain side near Tolland; the determination of the beetles was confirmed by 

 Mr. E. A. Schwarz. The Artemisia was thickly infested by the coccid Erium Ikh- 

 tensioides (Cockerell), on which the beetles undoubtedly fed.
