Upper side pale yellow-fulvous; the markings as in Helena, but pale black, reduced; the mesial stripes on both wings interrupted, macular; the extra discal rounded spots on primaries minute, the sub-marginal crescents wanting, and represented by small clusters of scales at the summits only, leaving a clear space to the margin, which margin is edged by an even stripe; on secondaries the rounded spots are large, and the crescents are represented by larger clusters of scales; the marginal border is extended on each nervule so as to encroach on and make narrow the clear space.

NOTES
Authors: Dyar Harrison. G. 
Published: February 2010

There is no doubt but that our specimens which go by the above name are referable to the European P. fuliginosa Linn.Prof. Smith has noticed their superficial resemblane* which amounts to identity. I have compared examples from France with a series from New York and I can find no difference in ornamentation. Neither do they differ structurally. The venation is identical.† The genitalia of the male also are the same within the limits of variation of the species, which appear to be wide. In the specimen form Europe examined the supraanal plate is elongate-triangular, produced to a point concave below slightly curved down and bulging a little laterally at the base.

THE MOLE CRICKET—GRYLLOTALPA BOREALIS
Authors: Doran E. W. 
Published: February 2010

In the January Canadian Entomologist Mr. James Fletcher had an interesting article on his “pet” mole cricket. At his suggestion I send a few notes upon the larval from of the same species.On January 4 last, Mr. A. I. Hayward, connected with our State Experiment Station, brought me five larvæ of the mole cricket, which were found in rather a peculiar situation. He had a number of men putting up ice. The ice had been removed from a considerable space, when, wading around in the water with tall rubber boots on, he found the yound mole crickets swimming around upon the water.
AN EXPLANATION
Authors: Grote A. R. 
Published: February 2010

On the Report of the Entomologial Club, as given in the Canadian Entomologist for November pp. 246–247, I would make the following remarks:-Mr. Smith's statement that there are two distinct series in the Sphingidœ, as also that the Smerinthinœ have their probable orgin in Ceratocampid forms of the Bombycidœ are both original with myself. The series Hemaris, Choerocampa and Smerithus belong together. So far as I know, I am the first to show, from imaginal and larval characters, that Choerocampa and Smerinthus are allied, and I am the first to describe an ocellated Choerocampid from Brazil.

ON DEMODEX FOLLICULORUM VAR. BOVIS IN AMERICAN CATTLE.—
Authors: Stiles C. W. 
Published: February 2010

In most books which treat of D. folliculorum, considerable space is given to a description of the lesions it produces in man, dogs, cats and sheep, while its presence on cattle is simply mentioned with the remark that Claus and Gros state that it is occasionally found on these animals.Gros seems to be the first who observed it on cattle. His original article is not at my disposal, but I quote from Blanchard.
NOTES ON COLEOPTERA—No. XI
Authors: Hamilton John 
Published: February 2010

Baptolinus Pilicornis, Payk.Till lately this species has been known in our literature as B. macrocephalus, Nord. It has a very wide distribution across the northern part of the continent, from Alaska to New Hampshire, and through the Alleghanies as for south as southern Pennsylvania, and probably much further. In Europe it ascends to 68°, and is spread over all Siberia to the Amur. It does not seem to be abundant anywhere. It is very variable in colour, and to some extent in the fineness or coarseness of the general punctuation. I took two examples here recently under the bark of a mosscovered decaying oak, and several a few days afterward on the mountains, in the same situation. All these are black and shining, with the mouth parts, antennæ and legs pale, corresponding to the description of Paykull's type. Four examples from Vermont have the mouth parts and the antennæ rufous, and the elyta, rufous, grading imperceptibly to rufo-piceous at the apex and sides.

The following notes of observations of some stages of these two little saw-flies are fragmentary and incomplete, but they are now given as they may be of some assistance to others working upon this group of insects.Taxonus nigrisoma, Nort., Larva.—The fully grown larva is cylindrcal, and 10 to 12 millimeters long.
