Lophyrus fabricii Leach. 
Gregarius on pitch pine (. Pinus rigida) at Bellport, Long Island, 
N. Y. 
Stage before last. —Head blackish brown, shiny; width 1.5 mm. 
Body greenish white, a little shining, immaculate except for a faint, 
double, dusky suranal cloud; segments 6-annulate with minute points 
on the first, second and fourth. Thoracic feet black; abdominal ones 
present on joints 6 to 13. 
Last stage. —Head round, higher than wide, smooth, shining 
brown-black; eye blacker ; width 2 mm. Body slightly greenish, 
white, opaque. A broad, regular, sub-dorsal gray shade line on joints 
2-13, rarely a narrow fainter dorsal one. A row of square black spots 
above the stigmatal line resting on the tracheae, broken and partially 
disconnected by the annulets, one spot on a segment, covering annulets 
2 and 4 on joints 3-12 ; a large, geminate, sooty black suranal patch. 
Subventral region white without marks. Thoracic feet black, except at 
the joints; abdominal on joints 6-13. Rarely the subdorsal shade is 
faint. The lateral spots vary somewhat, those on the thorax the small¬ 
est. Segments 6-annulate, 1st, 2d and 4th with a transverse row of 
minute black points. 
When disturbed the whole brood will elevate the thoracic parts 
simultaneously. 
Ultimate stage. —Head sordid whitish, shaded with black on the 
vertex, eye black. Body dull grayish, subventer waxy yellowish, a 
double dorsal, a broad lateral inky black, smoky band, cut by the in¬ 
cisures. Thoracic feet faintly blackish, banded. Anal flap broadly 
inky. 
Cocoon. —Elliptical, dense but thin, light brown, single. 
Eleven females bred from a single brood of iarvte, vary in the num¬ 
ber of joints of antennae. Seven have 16 joints, three 17 and one is 
intermediate, being very indistinctly 17-jointed. The specimens corre¬ 
spond with the description of L. pini-rigidce Norton, which I consider 
a synonym of fabricii. 
Eriocampa juglandis Fitch. 
Head large, full at the vertex, nearly colorless, shining, a little 
yellowish, covered with a thick white bloom; eye black, mouth brown. 
Body appears dark, greenish or blackish gray, but when denuded of 
wool it is colorless, though darkly shaded from the contents of the 
alimentary canal; coarsely and deeply 6-annulate. The subventral
