163. Podapion galicola. (lu galls 00 small limbs (£-^ inch in diame- 
ter) of Pintu re t i mo ta. .June 25. (W. H. Harrington in letter.) 
164. Dryocatvs affaber. Maunh.) June 25, the cones of Pimm resinosa 
were found frequently inhabited by Dryocoetes affaber (. ? ), both beetle 
and larva. Their attacks were readily noticed by the small aborted 
cones. The terminal shoots of branches seemed also sometimes infested 
by the same beetle. I inclose a specimen of the beetle for your deter- 
mination. It seems larger than a beetle which I found a few years 
ago boring the terminal shoots of white pine, and which you deter 
mined as D. affaber. (W. H. Harrington in letter.) 
165. Cryptocephalu.s tekreibersii, (W. H. Harrington in letter.) 
166. Pytho americanu8. In shallow cells under back of old logs and 
stumps. (Harrington in letter.) 
Order Lepidoptera. 
167. Another span worm, living on the moss on pine trees, and found 
alive in Cambridge, Mass., in January, by Mr. Hill, is closely assimi. 
lated in color to the moss itself. 
168. Also a handsome noctuid caterpillar we have found on the pitch- 
pine at Salem, Mass., which is red, marked with yellow, and would be 
readily overlooked from its mimicry of the red twigs of the pine. It may 
be the larva of a species of Trachea, and may represent the Trachea pin- 
iperda of Europe. 
169. Dr. Hageu has observed pine needles hollowed by an unknown 
Tineid. (Can. Ent. xii, 121, 1880.) 
Order Hemiptera.
