The following incomplete record has been made pos- sible through the helpful cooperation of several local workers. Mr. T. W. Hower obtained a female in Lytle Creek. San Bernardino Co., Calif., early in July. 1936, from which five eggs were secured. One of these was turned over to us. Mr. Chris Henne collected a full-grown larva on Pine Mis- tletoe in the Greenhorn ^vlountains, Kern County, Calif., on July 19, 1936. and he also furnished us with a larva and pupa which he had collected in the San Bernardino Mountains, July 28, ssr?*-!.
