Extract

The eggs of this species were received from the Rev. R. W. Anderson, of Wando, North Carolina. They hatched May 22, and the larvæ were matured by the middle of July. The larvæ are coloured to resemble a piece of wood or bark, and remain all day motionless, hidden on the ground. They are remarkably sluggish, can be handled free for a considerable time without making the slightest motion. They are general feeders.
