A Strange-looking Caterpillar. 



That the two strange-looking caterpillars of this insect, received 

 from New Haven, Conn., on the 27th of Jul}', were the first of the kind 

 that had come under my notice, would indicate not very acute powers 

 of observation — unusual mimetic concealment in the larva — or that 

 the insect is not of frequent occurrence in the State of New York.
