growing on a dry, rocky hillside in a stand of young mixed hard- 
woods. This is, I believe, the third New Hampshire record for this 
small lace bug. 
Galeatus peckhami (Ashmead) 
Katahdin Trail, Maine, August 14, 1959; East Madison, New 
Hampshire, July 25, 1958. 
Extended search was finally rewarded by these two collections 
from roadside asters ( Aster macrophyllus L.) growing on dry, sunny 
banks. Though this host plant is common in northern New England, 
frequent search has provided only these two records. Corythucha 
marmorata (Uhler) is more commonly found on this aster. 
Gargaphia til'iae (Walsh) 
New Milford, Connecticut, August 2, 1951 ; Aina, Maine, August 
29, 1956; Carroll, Maine, August 14, 1959; Petersham, Massachu- 
setts, July 17, and 18, 1951; Conway, New Hampshire, July 25, 
1958; Eaton, New Hampshire, July 25, 1958. 
In general this arboreal species may be found on its host plant 
Tilia. Since few records have been published, those noted will extend 
our knowledge of its distribution. All the collections were made from 
Tilia. 
Corythaica bellula Bueno 
Aina, Maine, August 2, 1953, August 28, 1956, and September 9, 
1958; Cedar Grove, Maine, July 11, 1953; Petersham (Harvard 
Forest), Massachusetts, July 16 and 17, 1951; Conway, New 
Hampshire, July 25, 1958 (sweeping) ; Eaton, New Hampshire, 
July 25, 1958. 
Each collection was made by hand from Panicum, except in the 
instance noted. The Aina station was a wood road through a mature 
stand of Pinus strobus L. where the shade was almost constant but 
not intense and at a point where the road was beginning to rise at the 
base of a fairly sharp slope. This species was also' seen, but not col- 
lected, on July 11, 1953, on Panicum growing on a little used, open 
drive within a stone’s throw of the shore at Medomak, Maine. The 
Cedar Grove collection was from Panicum growing on a dry bluff 
overlooking the Kennebec River. These are the first Maine records. 
In Bradford, Massachusetts, six collections of C. bellula Bueno 
were made from Panicum by hand and two by sweeping in 1957. 
Most of these were taken from an area of less than four square yards 
under a small red maple ( Acer rubrum L.) where the Panicum was 
prominent and the total vegetation too sparse to cover the hard-packed
