In all three places we have taken the larvae in fairly good numbers, and at Quincy we col- lected mature pupae, linking the larval and adult forms.

Aopsyche Ross (1938fl, p. 174). Geno- type, by original designation: Theliopsyche corona Ross. No species of this genus has as yet been found in Illinois. It is represented by four species, all restricted to the eastern Fig. 885.— Theliopsyche parva, male geni- talia. A, ventral aspect; B, aedeagus; C, eighth sternite. The males are readily distinguished by the wide, flaplike process on the eighth sternite, fig. 885C. No larvae of this genus have been reared. BRAGHYGENTRIDAE The maxillary palpi are three segmented in the male, five segmented in the female. The tibial spur count varies a great deal. The larvae are readily distinguished by having a sharp crease across the pronotum, a divided mesonotum and only two pairs of sclerites on the mesonotum; in addition, the.
