. Bulletin of the Lloyd Library of Botany, Pharmacy and Materia Medica. Botany; Pharmacy; Entomology; Fungi. LEPTOCERID^. The peculiar curved form of the tibia and basal tarsal joint of the middle leg indicates some peculiar habit in the larval life of this species. Period of Emerging.—Our earliest record of emerging is June 20th. At that time most specimens had pupated, but a few were still in the prepupal state. These late specimens would probably emerge about the middle of July. Distinctive Characters of Larva.—Color light-green in life. Length, 9 mm. Tarsus of middle leg curved, figure 179
