The Phylogeny and the Geographical Distribution of 

 the Genus Libellula (Odonata). 1 



By CLARENCE HAMILTON KENNEDY, Ohio State University, 



Columbus. 



(Plate IV.) 



In the first paper 2 was discussed the morphology of the penes 

 in the genus Libellula. The various structures found in the 

 penes were homologized and their usefulness in classification 

 was pointed out. In this paper the writer wishes to show the 

 value of these structures in a study of the phylogeny and dis- 

 tribution of the genus, for the penis characters divide the genus 

 into distinct groups that are consistent with other characters 

 and which appear to be consistent geographically. 



Thanks to the generosity of Mr. Williamson, Dr. Calvert 

 and Dr. Ris twenty-seven of the known species of Libellula
