turn. The lateral carinae are widely separated and termin- 
ate behind near the base and outer corners of the triangular 
pronotal process ; anteriorly, they are a little removed from 
the sides of the hood. 
Additional Notes on Brachypanorpa. — In my recent 
account of Brachypanorpa (Psyche, 60:28-36, 1953), I 
pointed out that all known females of B. carolinensis 
(Banks) collected from 1905 through 1920 were short- 
winged and flightless, whereas all those collected since 1951 
were long-winged and able to fly. I also noted that I had 
not located any specimens of this insect which had been 
collected during the interval between 1920 and 1951. Dr. 
J. Anthony Downes has more recently informed me that 
he collected carolmensis in the Black Mts., North Caro- 
lina, on June 10, 1938; the locality (near Mt. Mitchell, Toe 
River Gap, elevation 5500') is the one at which my long- 
winged females were found in 1951 and 1952. Dr. Downes 
writes me that the females were “unable to fly but readily 
jumped several inches.” One of the four females which 
he collected was sent to me for examination; it is clearly 
the short-winged type, like those originally found by Banks. 
The occurrence of these four females in 1938 indicates that 
the long-winged specimens had not appeared by that year 
(or at any rate that they were much in the minority) and 
that the female population did not change until after that 
time. Since I was unable to visit the carolinensis localities 
in the spring of 1953, I should also note that Mr. P. W. 
Fattig collected several long-winged females at Unicoi Gap., 
Georgia, on May 31, 1953, at the same locality that yielded 
numerous specimens in 1952. 
A second female of B. montana Carp, was also recently 
sent to me by Dr. Downes, who collected it on Mt. Mc- 
Loughlin, Oregon (June 25, 1939, 5000' elevation). This 
is the type locality of the species, originally described from 
a series of nine males. The new specimen agrees with the 
individual illustrated in my 1953 paper. — F. M. Car-
