Extract

In the genus Anoplodera two species, mutabilis Newman and aspera LeConre, represent a small, distinct group. A thirdspecies, previously unrecognized and closely related to aspera, has been noted in material submitted for identification. The present description and distributional notes are based on material in the California Academy of Sciences, the Canadian National Collection, Cornell University, Ohio State University, the United States National Museum, and the personal collections of Dr. J. N. Knull, Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio, and Mr. C. A. Frost, Framingham, Mass. I wish to thank Dr. Knull for examining some of the eastern specimens that have been confused with aspera; he concurred that they represented an undescribed species
