are given off from the rib yein, which are Mack at their bases, and those on the outer 

 side at their tips also. It is of a pale yellowish green color with a light yellow head, 

 the orange red spot on the clieeks with a black streak towards its hind edge, and the 

 two anterior dots on- the top of the -head conflaent with the black margins of the 

 sockets of the antennse, which, between these spots, is interrupted with tawny yel- 

 low. Its wings, expanded, measure 1.10. It is much less common than the pre- 

 ceding species, and occurs with it in the month of June. Specimens have also been 

 sent me from Michigan by T. E. Wetmore, Esq. 



11. (8 ) The tawny spot on the cheeks without any black dot 

 or mark. 



The Tellow-oheeked Goiden-ete (C. fulvibucca) corresponds with the 0- 

 marked golden-eye in the color of its ■seinlets, and the spots and marks upon its 

 head, except that no black dot or streak occurs in the tawny spot upon its cheeks. 

 Like that species also, this has an impressed line the whole length of the first seg- 

 ment of the thorax, but here that line is crossed slightly back of its middle by a 

 straight transverse one, the ends of which on each side are deep black, and a pale 

 umber brown spot extends from this backwards, nearly to the base of this segment, 

 having an oval black dot outside of it. Forward of the brown spot is a smaller one 

 of the same color, and on the anterior margin on each side behind the eye, as in seve- 

 ral of the species, are two short blackish lines converging and confluent at their hind 

 ends. The second segment has also an impressed medial line, and two brown spots 

 upon each side. A variety occurs in which the=e spots last mentioned are wanting. 

 The wings expand 1.10. This species occurs the last of July and in August.

 a transverse row.
