(i.) Enallagma liageni U'alsh. 



Grand Entry, June 30, 1901, 41 . This species ranges ap- 

 proximately between 40 and 47 N. Lai. and 60 and 100 \\". 

 Long. Specimens from Grand Entry average larger than 

 Indiana and Ohio specimens. 



(2.) Enallagma cyatliigerum Charp. 



Grand Entry, June 23, 1901, 5 $ ; June 30, 14^. This 

 species, with its races, is known from Northern Asia, Europe 

 and North America. How definitely the races may be red 

 nized I do not know. Hagcni, cyailii^criun and nUrcrti are 

 a group of very closely allied species. In North American an- 

 nexum, as identified by authors, occurs with hagon and cal- 

 rcrti in Maine and Massachusetts. Cali'crfi appears east of the 

 Great Plains in one other State, Indiana, in which /ia^<->ii has 

 also been taken. Annex nm and hageui are reported for New 

 Hampshire. Hageni has not been taken west of the Great 

 Plains. Calverti and anncxuni are reported for Washington 

 and Wyoming. Ainicx/un is also recorded for California. In 

 North America north of Lat. 45 anncxnni has been reported 

 generally, calverti only in the extreme wc^t, while hagcui is 

 known only from Quebec. It may be that annexnni and enlrcrti 

 have been confused by earlier authors. Twenty-two female 

 Enallagmas, not specifically determined, were taken at Grand 

 Entry, June 30.
