Authors have followed Kirby in referring American specimens of Entomoscelis Chev. to the Eurasian adonidis Pallas.. One female, without label, and two male examples of adonidis from the Elbruz Mountains of northwestern Persia are before me, and they differ from American specimens, which are described below as americana n. sp., in the form of the aedeagus and in slight characters of color and sculpture. E. adonidis is said to occur from southern France and Germany to Persia and southern Siberia. There is no reason at present to believe that its distribution is continuous with that of the American form.

Since the type male of this species was dcscribed, the following additional material has been determined: Smoky Falls, Mattagami River, Cochrane District, Ont., June 26, 1934, 2 ♂ ; July 1, 3, 1934, 5 ♂, 1 ♀ (G. S. Walley, Canadian National Collection, Ottawa) ; Fort Severn, Hudson Bay, Patricia portion of Kenora District, July 3, 6, 1940, 1 ♂, 3 ♀ (C. E. Hope, Royal Ontario Museum of Zoology, Toronto.

I am by no means certain that flavicornis Sm. can be considered distinct specifically from propinquilinea Grt. Originally described as Demas flavicornis from a New Jersey specimen in the Graef Collection (which should now be in the United States National Museum) it was probably considered distinct from Grote's species, described under Charadra, on generic characters.

The following notes pertain to a small but interesting collection of centipeds and millipeds made by Dr. D. T. Jones in central Iowa during the spring of 1941.

In my paper on the North American Oecophoridae I transferred seven species from this family to the Cosmopterygidae and erected the new genus Anoncia for them. Since the completion of that paper I have had an opportunity to study Borkhausenia longa Meyrick and B. leucoritis Meyrick. These also belong in Anoncia and are hereby transferred to that genus. In addition, one new species has come to hand and is described below. This brings to ten the total number of known species from North America referable to Anoncia.
