INSECTS INJURIOUS TO THE SUMACH. 
Rhus glabra. 
1. Gelechia rhoifructella Cleiu." 
Order Lepidoptera; family Tineid.e. 
The larvre may be found in April, or early in May, in the fruit spikes of 
sumach (Rhus typhina), where they feed on the crimson hairs and ex- 
terior envelope of the drupes, without, however, eating the drupes them- 
selves. The larva3 are concealed in galleries formed in the fruit spikes, 
and their presence is indicated by strings of "frass" clinging to the ex- 
terior. The cocoon is a slight silken web woven among the "frass" 
near the surface. The imago appears about the middle of Juue. 
Larva. — The larva is immaculate, and varies in color, from dark reddish-brown to 
a pale brown, dotted with rows of darker-colored dots, each giving rise to a hair; 
the bead is brown and the shield blackish. 
Moth. — Head, face and thorax grayish-fuscous. Labial palpi rather dark ocherous. 
Auteuiue ocherous, annulated with black. Forewings grayish-fuscous, dusted with 
dark brown, aud with four dark fuscous dots, one near the base of the fold, two near 
the middle of the wiug (oue on the fold aud one above it), and one ou the end of the 
disk. Near the end of the wing is an indistinct grayish baud. Hind wings fuscous, 
cilia the same. (Clemens.) 
* Of this I received three specimeus from Dr. Clemens ; it has considerable resem- 
blance with our G. populella, but the anterior wings are broader aud bluuter, and 
the anterior segments of the abdomen are not pale. The exp. al. is 8 lines. H. T.
