SCOTTISH DRAGONFLIES 23 



' An Extraordinary Melanic Variety or Aberration of Enallagma 

 cyathigerum, Chp., ' : by R. M'Lachlan (ibid. p. 110). Describes 

 and figures a specimen taken by Morton in Glen Lochay, Mid Perth, 

 July 1898. 



' Order Odonata ' of the Clyde Area : by J. J. F. X. King 

 (" British Association Handbook of the Nat. Hist, of the District," 

 1901, p. 313). Eight species recorded, including Sympetrum 

 sanguineum. Seeing that Mr. King, as he informs me, did not see 

 the Sympetrum specimen, but merely accepted the record from a 

 local correspondent, I do not think it can be admitted. Probably 

 the insect was only a very red striolatum. 



' A Contribution to the Entomology of Aberdeen ' : by J. Mearns 

 ("Ann. Scot. Nat. Hist," 1901, Odonata, 213). Records nine 

 species, determined by M'Lachlan, from localities in S. Aberdeen 

 and Kincardine (Banchory and Invercannie Moor). 



'Dragonflies in Argyll,' 1900 and 1901 : by R. Godfrey (ibid. 

 p. 240). Records eight species, all but one identified by W. E., from 

 Main Argyll (Loch Awe and Oban district). 



'Butterflies and Dragonflies in Banffshire,' July 1903: by H. 

 H. Brown (ibid., 1903, p. 247). Recordsfour Dragonflies, determined 

 by Grimshaw. 



'Neuroptera and Trichoptera from Colvend,' Aug. 1902 : by 

 K. J. Morton (" E.M.M.," xxxix. 100, 1903). Three Dragonflies 

 are mentioned. 



' Neuroptera from North Uist ' : by K. J. Morton (ibid, xlii 

 162, 1906). Records three species of Odonata collected by J. 

 Waterston in June 1905. 



'Butterflies and Neuroptera in Perthshire' in July 1907: by 

 K. J. Morton (ibid. xliv. 150, 1908). Records three Odonata 

 from the Blair Atholl district (east of the Garry, Mr. Morton tells me, 

 and therefore in v.c. 89), and six from Rannoch (v.c. 88). 



' Methven Moss as a Collecting Ground for Entomology ' : by 

 W. Wylie ("Trans. Perthsh. Soc. N. Sc.," v. pt. i, 1909). 

 Mentions (p. 5) five Dragonflies; one is Orthetrum carulescens, which 

 may have been correctly determined, but unfortunately Mr. Wylie, 

 as he informs me, has not preserved a specimen. 



G. Don's old list in Headrick's " Agriculture of Angus or Forfar- 

 shire," 1813, has also been consulted, and Harcourt Bath's little 

 "Handbook of British Dragonflies," 1890, has not been 

 looked.
