Verrill has sent me the eggs and freshlyhatched young of one of our New England species of belostoma, the former of which hefound in the spring under an old log just at but above the edge of the water. On the 18thof June they hatched out a most amusing flock of young bugs, nearly as large as squash bugs,and light yellowish green in colour, which soon changed to dark gray. The young, twodays old and previous to moulting, were -35 of an inch long. The eggs are smooth, cylin-drical, -16 of an inch long, and are deposited in a mass of about ninety eggs, attached bythe posterior end to a mass of silk gum. They partially overlap each other, and theyoung escape by a round lid, indicated by a semicircular white line. The young insectsvery much resemble their parents excepting in size, but their wings, however, in thisyoung state are not developed. The Many-Lined Julus—(Julus multistriatus.—Walsh)..
