On April 18th of this season, while searching for insects on Montreal Mountain, I found under a stone at the foot of a hickory tree, a larva, of which the follorving is a description :

Length two inches. Form cylindrical, slightly annulated. Head reddish yellow, with two brown streaks, and marbled with lines and dots of the same color ; semi-tlansparent, shiny, slightty bilobed, with a few scattered hairs of a whitish brown color. Mandibles brown.
