CHARLES V. RILEY.  Mexican Jumping Beans.  The determination of the plant.

Proc. Ent. Soc. Washington, II, No. 2, June 30, 1892, pp. 178-181.

The food-plant of Carpocapsa saltitans hitherto unknown excepting by popular name, or incorrectly referred to the genus Colliguaja belongs to the genus Sebastiania of which three (undescribed) species were recently collected in Mexico.  General characteristics of these plants and synoptic table, prepared by Mr. J.M. Rose, of the three species with diagnosis of the genus Sebastiania.  Probably mode of oviposition in Carpocapsa saltitans.
