. Bulletin of the Museum of Comparative Zoology at Harvard College. Zoology; Zoology. 264 BULLETIN : MUSEUM OF COMPARATIVE ZOOLOGY. Eriocampa scudderi, sp. nov. Length about 9 mm. Body seemingly wholly black, with infuscated wings. Nervures piceous. Hind, legs, or at least the femora and tibiae, black. Marginal cell long and pointed, the cross-vein strongly oblique, inserted much nearer to the tip than to the base of the second submarginal cell. First submarginal cell small, narrowed at the tip, the first transverse cubitus being only two-thirds the length of the first section of the cubitus.

Fig. 5. — Eriocampa scudderi Brues. Fore-wing and a small portion of hind-wing. over three times as long as high at the tip. Basal vein and cubitus arising at the same point, the basal vein longer than the oblique apical side of the first discoidal cell. Anal cell with a moderately oblique cross-vein; rather weakly constricted behind basally, but the nervure is strongly thickened at the constriction. Type. — No. 2040, Mus. Comp. Zool., Florissant, Col. (No. 8298, S. H. Scudder Coll.), very nicely preserved except for the hind wings and. the antennae. Eriocampa, sp. There is a specimen (No. 2041, Mus. Comp. Zool.; No. 9101, S. H. Scudder Coll.), which is not well enough preserved to place positively in this genus, but which probably represents a third species. The wings are brown and the body pale, except the posterior margin of the thorax and the last two or three abdominal segments, which are dark or black. It is quite a strikingly colored species. Emphytus Klug. This genus is said to be represented in Baltic Amber by Menge ('56). Paremphytus, gen. nov. Similar to Emphytus, but the basal nervure and the first recurrent nervure are widely divergent, not parallel as in that genus. The submedian cell is much longer than the median, and the first transverse cubitus absent. Anal cell divided by an oblique nervure ; not constricted behin
