one that has been adopted. These manuscript names of Loew 

 have appeared in various collections, or, in some cases (bicornis, 

 brevicollis), even into the literature, and consequently it is deemed 

 advisable to mention the name applied by Loew to the different 

 species discussed in the second part of this paper. 



TIPULA. 



T. angulata, Century V, No. 22, pp. 61, 62. 



The type-material was stated to have come from Massachusetts, 

 but the only specimen now appearing in the collection is a male 

 from New Hampshire, bearing the number 258, with the name-label 

 in Loew's writing. It is this specimen that is designated as the type ; 

 there is a possibility that the locality labels were later confused or 

 that Loew wrote down the wrong State in his original description. 

 There is no reason whatsoever for doubting that the specimen was 

 before Loew at the time he drew up the description. The paler 

 specimen mentioned in a note by Loew is not of this species, but of 

 T. penobscot, described later; the sex is not female, but male.
