This species somewhat resembles the smaller forms of gi'ossus, but mav I)e known by the broadly rounded clypeal angles, these being narrowly rounded and distinctly produced anteriorly in that species. C. ciliatus Esch.—This species is very abundant about San Francisco. The series of thirty s])ecimens before me indicates but slight variability excejjt in size, the specimens ranging- from to mm. in lenjith. Larva. The following description will serve for the identification of the larva of Co'lus ciliatus. The specimens upon which the descrip- tion is based were found in a small sandy tract, in which the imago was more than usually plentiful, and un- doubtedly represent the true larva,^ Body very elongate, slender, cylindrical. Surface shining, having a few very long fine set?e, herissate with stilf fulvous at the apex and sides of the head, and beneath the latter and tlie thoracic segments. Integuments coriaceous, pale luteo-testaceous; head, protliorax and anal seg- ment subcorneous, darker, rufo- testaceous. Head as wide as the prothorax, as long as wide. Post-epistomal region slightly wider than long ; sides parallel, nearly straight; 1 The figure on the left represents the entire body: that to the right and above, the anterior portion of the liead, more highly magiiifled.
