Notes on some Nymphs of Gomphinae (Order 

 Odonata) of the Hagen Collection. 



BY JAMES G. NEEDHAM, Cornell University, Ithaca, New York. 



(Plate XIV.) 



In 1904, while examining the dragonfly nymphs of the Hagen 

 collection in the Museum of Comparative Zoology at Cambridge, 

 I made some drawings and determinations of Gomphine nymphs 

 which, upon Dr. Calvert's invitation, I now publish herewith. 

 The figures are all of the nymphal labia. Cabot's excellent fig- 

 ures of the nymphs of his first paper (Immature stages of the 

 Odonata, part I, Subfamily Gomphina. Mem. Mus. Comp. Zool. 

 vol. II, No. 5, pp. 1-17, pis. I-III, 1872) are not sufficiently de- 

 tailed as to labial structures to meet the descriptive needs of 

 the present day. Hagen's later descriptions (Monograph of 

 the earlier stages of the Odonata. Subfamilies Gomphina and 

 Cordulegastrina. Trans. Amer. Ent. Soc., vol. 12,, pp. 249- 

 291, 1885) were not accompanied by figures. Furthermore, it 

 was a discovery of a later day that undetermined nymphs 

 might be referred to their proper genera by comparison of the 

 developing venation of the nymphal wing with the venation of 

 the adult. Therefore, it is possible to add something to the
