SYNOPSIS OF LARV-E (THAT OF S. APICALIS UNKNOWN). 
A. Witli two or three large high dorsal abdominal forked tubercles. 
Head striped ; sides of second and third thoracic segments greenish ; a whitish dorsal patch between the- 
first and second dorsal tubercles j conspicuous V-shaped mark just behind the second tubercle. 
5 . iimnecB 
Three high tubercles^ higher than in the other species, especially the first; body more or less russet, 
•with no green patches. Head not striped S. leptlnoides 
Only two dorsal tubercles, that on fifth abdomiual segment wanting; body russet or very dark green on 
sides of thoracic segments behind the spiracles. Head not striped. V-shaped dorsal mark silvery 
white and conspicuous nnhornis 
Three small dorsal tubercles, sides of thoracic segments green ; V-shaped mark absent (Dyar) . . S. hadia 
Jtesembles larva of lepthtoides in coloring, but structurally more like ipomecc. When at rest greatly 
hunched anteriorly, and the furcate proiuiuence on first abdominal segment is very long (Tbaxter). 
An additional one on preceding segment (Dyar) S. eximia 
B. First abdominal segment greatly awoUcu above and on the sides; hairs of the other species represented 
by very stout, blunt sjiiues. 
Dorsal hump coral-red ; spines black ; body with black and white lines before and behind first abdominal 
segment; yellow ocherous along the back S. concinna 
I add Dr. Dyar’s synopsis, as he has seen the larvie of eximia, I have changed the name 
nitida to hadia. '
