The females of this species will run down to ivinnamanna

 the anterior scutellar bristles much weaker, will run down to 

 carlynensis Malloch, from which the different venation readily 

 separates it. 



SOME NEUROPTERA FROM THE UNITED STATES. 



By Rev. Longinas Navas, S. J., Zaragoza, Spain. 



The few Neuroptera enumerated below were all taken by my 

 friend, Mr. J. R. de la Torre-Bueno, and generously added to my
