They are lighter than the vertex, black on the meso- and meta-thorax and abdomen. A broad marginal stripe covers the sides of the thorax and the narrower stripe and lateral border extend from base to tip of abdomen. Length 5 mm. Two specimens of this have been secured, one of them Au- gust 8th in timothy mealow and from its characteristics it i^^ referred somewhat doubtfully to the above species, although it was not possible to rear specimens to the adult stage. Balclutha punctata Thunberg. This species is very widely distributed and was mentioned in a previous Bulletin as one of the common forms. It has be^n taken especially upon Canadian blue grass and during August was found in all stages and while the life cycle has not been followed in complete detail it would be useful to furnish de- scription and figures of the stages 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.
