Larva of Galerucella sagittarize, Gy//. 
By F. G. Schaupp. 
On the leaves of the yellow pond lily I found in July larvae of all ~ 
sizes, pupz in all states of formation and imagines of Galerucella sagit- 
tartae Gyll, in all states of maturity. ‘Vhe larva is bluish black above, 
yellow beneath - head small and smooth except for a central frontal de- 
pression which is punctured; mandibles tridentate, middle tooth mast pro- 
minent ; mouth parts thick and fleshy. Form elongate; when fully 
grown % inches in length, widest at middle and tapering each way. First 
segment longest and depressed, flattened; all others nearly equal, all with — 
a longitudinal dorsal line and a deep transverse impressed line—surface 
scabrous, sides with a row of brown tubercles—one on each segment, 
Legs yellow, joints black, anal segment furnished with a pro-leg. Pupa 
shorter and broader, retaininy markings of larval form on abdomen but 
adding rudiments of wings (which are free) legs and antennee. At first they 
are entirely yellow, but soon turn black. The eggs are yellow, ovate and 
are laid in small patches on the upper surface of the leaf. Many larvae 
are found together on a single leaf, ard there was scarcely one which 
was not infested with these unsightly slugs. ‘hey eat the upper surface 
of the leaf only and seldom ,make holes, but the leaves become brown 
and unsightly and lose all their beauty. ‘The white lily seems less to 
their taste for they do not touch that so far as I could see.
