The viviparous females and sexuales of Macrosiphum pechumani sp. n. are described from Convallaria majalis, Smilacina racemosa, Fragaria virginiana, Pyrola elliptica, and Hibiscus sp. This new species differs from other described Macrosiphum spp. known to me by possessing a pale body combined with black Cauda and siphunculi.

The species of Tornoceras , Parodiceras , Epitornoceras and Aulatornoceras in North America are described. The study provides an independent stratigraphical goniatite zonation, particularly for the New York State Devonian, and it also provides an analysis of allomorphis in Tornoceras . A discussion on the protoconch apparatus and the significance of the metamorphosis at the nepionic constriction in Tornoceras is given. For the Tornoceras stock descriptions are provided where possible of the ontogeny from protoconch to adult of species at eleven successive stratigraphical levels, and faunas at other levels are also described. Thus the successional ontogenies shed light on the phylogeny of the stock. Faunas at each level may be morphologically defined, but few consistently maintained evolutionary trends have been observed. Shell form seems particularly subject to independent, and probably phenotypic variation. Through the equivalents of the Middle Devonian to the lower Frasnian, protoconch width appears to increase progressively. Similarly the suture becomes more undulating, particularly with regard to the steepness of the ventrad face of the lateral lobe. Later species show reversion to early characters in these respects. The origin of Tornoceras from Parodiceras is argued, and it is considered that Tornoceras gave rise to all later members of the Tornoceratidae. A new subgenus, Linguatornoceras , is erected for Frasnian and lower Famennian tornoceratids with small lingulate lateral lobes. Seven new species and subspecies are described.

A New Species

AbstractA single specimen of a new species of the chasmataspidid Diploaspis Størmer, 1972 is described from the upper Silurian (Pridoli) Phelps Member of the Fiddlers Green Formation (Bertie Group) in Herkimer County, New York State, USA. Diploaspis praecursor sp. nov. is distinguished by the shape of the posterolateral margins of the buckler, which are drawn out into angular epimera, and by the lack of elongate tubercles on the postabdomen. This discovery increases the taxonomic diversity of the Bertie Group by extending the geographic extent of Diploaspididae into North America. D. praecursor pre-dates previously known species of Diploaspis by more than 10 million years.

During field work at Bobcaygeon, Ont., in the summers of 1931 and 1932 I paid particular attention to the collecting and breeding of Haploptilia larvae and was successful in securing considerably over a dozen species. As very little has been published on this interesting group apart from Heinrich's excellent treatment in Forbes' Lepidoptera of New York State (1924, Mem. 68, Cornell Univ. Agr. Exp. Sta. pp. 202-217) it has occurred to me that the publication of my field notes, combined with a photographic figure of the characteristic larval case pertaining to each species, might be of value to students.

Root Collar

Interest in this insect was first aroused by the reports of Felt (1926a, 1926b) and York (1933), who attributed injury to several species of pines in the State of New York to Hylobius pales (Hbst.). Later it became apparent that the injury reported was not caused by H. pales, but by a new species that Huchanan (1934) described as H. radicis. This insect was first reported in Canada at Angus, Ont. (Wallace, 1954), and has since become abundant in pine plantations totalling about 500 acres in Simcoe County. This County supports the principal infestations in Ontario, but other widely separated infestations have been reported near Sault Ste. Marie and from five plantations totalling 50 acres in Renfrew County. H. radicis is now known to be widely distributed. In addition to New York State and Ontario, the insect has been reported from Virginia, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Manitoba.

Three New Species

Radnoria bretti n. sp., from the Wenlock (Sheinwoodian) Rochester Formation of western New York State, is the best preserved and most completely known member of its genus. It provides the first definitive information on Radnoria's hourglass-shaped rostral plate, the first known hypostome of a Silurian member of the genus, demonstrates that Radnoria engaged in sphaeroidal enrollment, and reveals that early holaspid individuals had tubercles on the posterior thoracic axes and pygidial axial rings that were effaced with maturity. Three new species from the Wenlock of the Cape Phillips Formation of Nunavut are known from sparse material and are reported in open nomenclature. Together, the species greatly increase knowledge of Laurentian Silurian brachymetopids, which have until now been known from a single cranidium from the Wenlock of Arkansas.

Hystrix Patula

Described from a series of specimens.Holotype deposited in my own collection.Paratypes in various institutional collections.Adult Female: In Life:—Enclosed in a tough, brownish-white, felted, elongate sac, on the underside of the leaves of Hystrix patula Moench and on several other undetermined species of grasses. Living insects removed from sacs are dark red, retaining that color in KOH.
