There are four distinct dark dots above, two on the head and two on the pronotum. Length 4 mm. The species is very generally distributed over the country and we would expect to find it over most of the state especially as it was described by Provancher from Quebec, but it has occurred in the col- lecting of the season of 1913 only in two localities being taken by Prof. A. P. Morse at Grand Lakes Stream and by Mr. C. P. Alexander at H

The species is very generally distributed over the country and we would expect to find it over most of the state especially as it was described by Provancher from Quebec, but it has occurred in the col- lecting of the season of 1913 only in two localities being taken by Prof. A. P. Morse at Grand Lakes Stream and by Mr. C. P. Alexander at Houlton. In 1914 it was taken a number of times at Orono in July and August. It feeds on a variety of plants but if the past two seasons are any criterion it will not be of any economic consequence in J\ . H-y^-^^t'Cc^Xe*. Fig. 13.

A slender light colored species with two small black spots on the vertex, a dark line along the suture. Length, mm. Not common in collections this season. Collected by Mr. Stover at Dexter. I secured a number by sweeping along the roadside near the Bangor Bog Aug. 5th, and at North Harpswell Aug. 12th and Mr. Alex- ander collected a few from firs June loth. An adult female was col- lected from Cornus July 24, 1914, at Orono. It is evidently of little or no economic importance in Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Maine.
