The following species of craneflies have not, as far as I 

 have knowledge, been heretofore recorded from the State. In 

 those cases where no name is mentioned the specimens were 

 taken by the author. My thanks are due to Mr. C. P. Alex- 

 ander, of Cornell University, and Dr. Frank E. Lutz, of the 

 American Museum of Natural History, the former for look- 

 ing over this paper and supplying a record, the latter for 

 supplying two records. The text figure was drawn by means 

 of the projection microscope in the Entomological Laboratory 

 of Cornell University.
