Directions for Sending Insects
[?]

Department of Agriculture,
Division of Entomology.
Washington, D. C., Feb. 20th, 1879

Dear Prof. Bessey

The omission of the cut of Clisiocampa was entirely an oversight. The one I agreed to send was fig. 29 of Report 5. I will send it just as soon as I can get an electrotype made. Meanwhile I mail you an additional electrotype of the moth. The little Tortrix was described as cinderella, but the Tortricia termination of ana should be adopted. It is for this reason that I wrote subsequently cinderana.

I hope you will have this bill paid without delay.

Yours Truly
C. V. Riley
