Among the species of Pesotettix occuring in Indiana, there is one which I have never been able to place satisfactorily to myself. In my first paper on Indiana Acrididæ I called it P. rotundipennis, Scudder, upon the authority of Mr. S. H. Scudder, to whom specimens had been sent.
This paper contains the descriptions of the remaining new species of Ichneumonidæ from Vancouver Island. For the generic determinations of Amorphota, Semiodes, Phobetes and Hypocryptus, representing genera not hitherto reconized in America, I am indebted to Mr. Ashmead.
Lake Worth is an elongated bay connected with the ocean, two and one-half miles from its northern end, and separated from it by a narrow elevated stirp of land, varying in width from two hundered to nine hundred yards. Its length is about 20 miles, while in width it averages about thirteen hundred yards.
Egg.—On September 2nd, 1893, it was found back of Napa College Laboratory, laid singly on the stem of the flower of wild anise. Nearly spherical, base slightly indented, smooth, bluish-white with grayish shade on one side. Diameter, 1.245 mm. It hatched September 5th, bursting the shell in halves; the shell was white.
In this group we have in some of the genera a return to the cephalic and thoracic ornamentation by horns or tubercles in the males, as shownin the Coprophaga I however, none of the Canadian species would be thus misplaced by anyone having even a slight acquaintance with the family, as aside from this character the resemblance is slight. From some of the Melolonthinæ they are not so readily distinguished, except by the position of the spiracles, as defined in a previous article.
