body is slightly wrinkled transversely, and from each of the black 
spots upon it, a short black hair arises. 
The Pupa (figs. 5 and 6), is somewhat variable in size, hut it is 
about half an inch long, and sixteen-hundredths of an inch broad. 
It is of a shining-black, or very dark chestnut-brown color, and 
paler at the sutures. The dorsal and abdominal segments are 
thickly punctured. The tips of the wing-cases*reach nearly three- 
fifths of the entire length, and their surface faintly shows some 
slightly elevated lines, formed apparently by the nerves of the in¬ 
closed wings. The abdomen terminates in a short, projecting, bifid 
point.
