surest remedy, but as the worms will, by this time, have gone into the 
pupa or inactive state, it is too late to apply this means now ; some good 
may, however, be done by raking up and burning all the dry leaves and. 
rubbish under and about the bushes. It has also been recommended to 
give fowls the run of such places, when they are said to scratch up and. 
devour many of the chrysalides. In the absence of such friendly help, a — 
top-dressing of lime or ashes would probably prove beneficial. For 
fuller details in reference to this insect the reader is referred to the report 
of the Entomological Society of Ontario for 1871, p. 42 and 43. 
DESCRIPTIONS OF 
TWO, SPECIES: OF  ANAPHORAS 
BY AUG. R. GROTE, DEMOPOLIS. 
In Dr. Clemens’ Tineid genus Avaphora, the fore wings are 12-veined. 
The submedian fold, however, seems to me to become a true vein 
towards the margin, giving an additional vein (vein 1b). Internal 
nervure, vein 1a, shortly furcate at base. Median nervure sending 
out vein 2 near the extremity to internal angle; and emitting 3 and 4, 
nearer together, on to the external margin. From the base of.the wing 
at the middle of the discal cell, a ‘ veinlet” is emitted which is furcate 
before the centre of the wing, sending one branch, the lower, out to 
extremity of the cell between the origin of 4 and 5, near 4, and angula- 
tedly connected with it, while 5 seems independant. Its upper branch, 
apparently the ‘“‘ median fold,” terminates between veins 5 and 6. An 
analogous “‘veinlet” is thrown off from the lower side of sub-costal 
nervure beyond the point of furcation of the median “ veinlet,” and 
terminates at the extremity of discal cell, and at the origin of vein 8. 
Veins 7, 8, 9, near together at base; 8 to apex; 9 to costa; 10 4 little 
removed at base; 11 thrown off near base of the wing. Hind wings 
$-veined ; veins 1a and rb divaricating on to the margin. Discal cell 
closed by a “ veinlet ;’ vein 4 thrown off from a furcating median veinlet 
at the middle of the discal cell; 5 thrown off from the “ veinlet,” closing 
the cell between 4 and 6, near to 6, which latter is sub-continuous with 
the upper fork of the median cellular ‘‘ veinlet.” The two internal veins 
are counted together. Vein 7 to apex; 8 to costa shortly before the tip.
