Banker : A preliminary Contribution 



Reported also from Ft. Edward, N. Y. (E. C. Howe) and North 

 Carolina (Curtis). I have not seen these specimens. The exsiccati 

 quoted above furnish little information regarding this species ; the 

 American collections are of uncertain relations and it seems doubt- 

 ful if the species has ever really been found in this country. 

 Such specimens as I have been able to examine do not satisfy me 

 as corresponding either to Fries' figure or description.
