OF WASHINGTON. 17 
comprises 132 specimens, representing 16 species. In addition 
there are five specimens from Vancouver Island collected by 
Dr. Dyar, representing four species not included in those from 
the Kootenay country, namely, Lestes congener, ALschna con- 
stricta, Sympetrum costiferum and 5. mcinum. 
While at Banff, Alberta, the writer took an undeter- 
mined 9 of jEschna; and Mr. N. B. Sanson, Curator of the 
Park Museum at Banff, subsequently sent him for determina- 
tion three specimens of Sympetrum scoticum, a species which in 
all probability occurs in portions of British Columbia. 
The most abundant species in the Kootenay District appear 
to be Lestes forcipatus, Enallagma cyatkigerum, Cordulia shurt- 
leffi, Leucorhinia proximo,, Sympetrum corruptum and Libellula 
quadrimaculata . 
The writer is indebted to Dr. Philip P. Calvert for kind 
assistance in naming some of the species of Sympetrum and for 
verifying the determinations of Leucorhinia. 
[Lestes congener Hagen. 
We did not find this species in the Kootenay District, but 
Dr. Dyar collected a single & at Wellington, on Vancouver 
Island, September 2.] 
Lestes uncatus Kirby. 
Kaslo, August 5 (i J\ i 9), August 7 (i 9). 
Lestes forcipatus Rambur. 
Kaslo, July 9 (3 6V, 6 9 9) all somewhat teneral; Mirror 
Lake, Kaslo, August 6 (i 9). 
One of the cTc^ is remarkable for .its extremely short abdo- 
menmeasuring only 20.5 mm., the same length as the hind 
wing. 
Enallagma yathigerum Charpentier. 
"Lilypad Lake," Kaslo, June 7 (Dyar: 2 cTcT, teneral); June 
10 (5 cTd\ 2 of them teneral), June 26 (2 c?cT), July 2 (3 c?d\ 2 of 
them teneral), July 9 (5 tftf); Mirror Lake, Kaslo, August 6 
(3 cTcT, i pair in coitu) ; Loon Lake, Ainsworth, July n (i cT) ; 
Bear Lake, July 20 (5 (?<?). 
Enallagma sp. 
"Lilypad Lake," Kaslo, May 29 (Dyar: i $); Mirror Lake, 
Kaslo, July 7 (i 9), August 6 (2 $ $); Loon Lake, Ainsworth, 
July ii (i $). 
These specimens belong either to cyathigerum or caherti, but 
as no character for separating the 9 9 of these two species has 
yet been discovered they cannot now be determined specifically.
