. Bulletin of the Lloyd Library of Botany, Pharmacy and Materia Medica. Botany; Pharmacy; Entomology; Fungi. LEPTOCERID^. The metathorax has a small chitinous plate bearing a few setae on each "; The fore leg is broad and flat. The middle leg bears a tarsal claw that is as long as the basal tarsal joint. The distal segment. MYSTACIDES SEPULCHRALIS. 168. Larva. Head and thorax. 170. Case. 169. Larva. Frons. of the trochanter is more than twice as long as the basal segment. The femur is divided into a long apical and very short basal piece. The hind leg bears a tarsal claw about half as long as the basal joint. The tibia has a swelling at about the middle of the segment that gives the segment the appearance of being divided, though carefully-prepared mounts have revealed no suture. The femur is divided into a short basal and long apical piece. The basal piece of the trochanter is short and the apical piece very long. The Abdomen.—The first abdominal segment has a prominent bulb-shaped dorsal spacing-hump; the lateral humps are smaller; on the caudal side of each lateral hump there is a brown chitinous plate with a black dorsal margin. Abdominal gills are absent. The lateral fringe consists of weak, pale hairs. The drag-hooks are stout; chitinous supports at their bases are almost entirely wanting. Description ok Case.—The case of the larva, figure 170, con- sists of a slightly-tapering tube of sand grains, or minute bark 99.
