The preceding part under this general title was published in 1947 (Can Ent., 79: 68-73). At this time I am describing a small series of Eriopterine crane-flies from California, taken chiefly by myself in 1946, with one further species secured by Mr. John L. Sperr. The types of the novelties are preserved in my collection of Tipulidae.

Male Length of primaries (measured from the base of the wing to the apex) 25-26 mm. Genitalia identical with those of Minois meadi meadi. Uppe: surface: the primaries as in typical meadi, with two small dark ocelli ringed with light reddish-yellow; the pupils reduced in the anterior ocelli and lacking in the posterior; the area btween the occclli may be suffused with reddish-yellow. Secondaries as in typical meadi, with a well developed submarginal ocellus between veins Cu1 and Cu2, which may or may not be pupilled with while. Lower surface: primaries similar to M. m. meadi. Secondaries with a well developed submarginal ocelllis between Cu1, and Cu2; additional ocelli may also be present between M1 and 2, and Cu1 and 2A. The ground color is homogeneous dull brown, with darker striae which are more sparsely distributed than in typical meadi, and tend to disappear in the limbal area. The dark transverse bands of meadi have almost completclv disappeared.

In west-central Saskatchewan at a single location 18 miles southwest of Laporte, Aeropedellus clavotus (Thomas) appeared in outbreak numbers and destroyed 300 acres of crop in 1936.

The outbreak was resrictcd to two adjoining fields each of 300 acres, but the two differed widely in the amount of damage. These fields were adjacent to the South Saskatchewan River, with a mile of prairie extending down to the river on one side and two section of native prairie on the other. The soil at this location is heavy clay, which is typical of the district.
