This insect is seldom met with in the imago state ; the larvco, 
however, are easily obtained by searching for them amongst foliage 
of the different species of Salix and Prunus. Mr. G. F. Mathews 
informs me that he has taken the larvw ''abundantly on young 
apple trees." 
Occurs (in the larval state) in September.
