9. Calvert, Ent. News, 1903, p. 36, records fasciata for 

 Lucaston, New Jersey, June 22, July 2, 1900-2, collected by E. 

 Daecke. 



r-.>flO. In Ent. News, 1907, p. 456, Mr. Laurent's capture of 

 fasciata at Malaga, New Jersey, July 20, is recorded. 

 ^3 11. Muttkowski, Bull. Wis. Nat. Hist. Soc, Vol. 6, 1908, 

 p. 108, describes fasciata and records it from Milwaukee County, 

 Wisconsin. 



Celithemis fasciata Kirby. 

 Trans. Zool. Soc. Lond., XII, 1889, p. 326, pi. LII, fig. 2. 



As above stated Hagen's reference to fasciata from Florida 

 probably refers to this species. In Ent. News, 1906, p. 84. 

 C. S. Brimley records fasciata from Lake Ellis, North Carolina, 

 June 22nd. This probably refers to true fasciata. 



Soon after beginning this study I wrote to Mr. Dury about 

 his Cincinnati record. He sent me a water color sketch of his 

 specimen, taken in 1895. It is certainly monomclaena. It was 

 taken at a small lake in Spring Grove Cemetery. Several were 

 seen but only one was captured and he has not seen the species 

 since. He does not know who is responsible for determining his 

 specimen as fasciata, but I recall from conversations wdth Profes- 

 sor Kellicott that he was not the authority, and my Indiana 

 specimens were named fasciata for me by Kellicott after he or 

 Hine had seen Dury's specimen bearing this label. 



Dury's experience with the species at Cincinnati is similar 

 to mine in AVells County. It was taken at Frantz Fishpond (a 

 deserted gravel pit) -in 1898 and again in 1901, but I have 

 been unable to find it there since. I have not seen the species 

 alive since 1904 when it was taken in Steuben County, Indiana. 



My thanks are due Professor Hine for delegating to me this 

 work in an order of insects in which he himself is greatly inter- 

 ested. Professor J. B. Parker has on this occasion, as on others, 

 given me the benefit of his knowledge of Greek, and the specific 

 name monomelaena is of his compounding. The photographs 

 of wings, from which the plates have been made, were taken by 

 Professor Newton Miller, Clark College. 



The types of monomelaena are a male and female, Whitley 

 County, Indiana, in my collection. 



Bluffton, Indiana.
