74 1 XTOMOLOGICAI. NK\VS. [May, 



Five Xorth Anu-riran species are recogni/.ed in tin- paper re- 

 ferred to, vi/. : C. angitstipenniS) auiata, dimidiata '\\-ith race 

 apical it \ it"(]intbilis (\vith races intdsouicti Mu\yakima\ and tti<icn- 

 lata, Of these I have .si-en diuiidiata and r. apiciilis^ ir,j//al>i/is 

 and maculaia. 



I >r. Hagen states ("Psyche," v, p. 242) that ' Tin- -mus 

 Calopteryx largely represented in tin- northern boreal and t<-m- 

 perate zone nowhere passes to the south beyond the 30! li d --r< 

 I possess a male dimidiata, fornit-rlv in the collection of 1'rot. I'. 

 R. Uhler, of Baltimore: when Prof. I'hler gave this specimen to 

 me it bore (and still bears) the label "Calopteryx, Honduras." 

 Honduras, including that part under British 'rule, i-xtend.s fnun 

 about the iSth to the I3th parallel of Xorth latitude. The nio-t 

 southern locality in all America for any species of Caloptcry.\. as 

 given by Dr. Hag'en, is Florida. 



In the Am. Ent. Soc. collection are two males of apicalit from 

 Delaware, a new locality. In the same collection are two k-males, 

 one certainly, the other probably from Delaware; I think that 

 they also belong to apicalis. The nu a-nrements of these females 

 are: Total length 40 40.5 mm.; abdomen, 31.5 32.5 mm.; 

 anterior wing, 30 mm. ; posterior, 29 mm. 



Of (zquabilis I possess one male and one It-male, both taken 

 by Mr. Harry L. Walker at Belvidere, Boone County, 111., June 

 29, 1888, "on the bank of a little stream." I'.oth agree very 

 well with Dr. Hagen's description, except that the wings of the 

 ti male are hardly smoky at the apex. 



For maculata I add a new locality, Tama County, Iowa; two 

 males and one female taken June 21, 2X, 29, iSs.j. by Miss Alda 

 M. Sharp.
