Extract

Dr. E. L. Todd of the Systematic Entomology Laboratory, United States Department of Agriculture, recently forwarded to me four specimens of a new species of Schinia collected by J. Baker on Steens Mt., Oregon. The new species superficially resembles S. aurantiaca (Hy. Edwards) in external appearance, but it is quite distinct on the basis of genitalic characters.
