surrounding which the blue is of a somewhat paler colour than on the remainder 

 of the wing; a small patch without blue scaling at costal angle; terminal dark 

 Line; fringes on both wings with basal half blackish and outer portion white, 

 except along, abdominal margin of secondaries where they are totally white. 

 Beneath both wings pale gray, sprinkled with greenish at base and suffused 

 with whitish rather broadly along outer margin; primaries with the dark discal 

 dash and postmedian row of spots reduced in size as compared with those of 

 typical icarioides (Sierra Nevada region) but broadly encircled with white; 

 subterminal spots obsolete; secondaries with a white lunate discal mark and a 

 curved postmedian row of rather obscure white spots, very, faintly centered with 

 black dots; traoes of faint whitish subterminal lunules; fringes white. 



9 . l^pper side deep black-brown, basal half of primaries scaled with 

 blue; a narrow, black discal mark; secondaries bluish at base and along abdominal 

 margin; a narrow, broken, bluish line along outer margin, behind which are 

 traces of dark spots similar to those of the <^ , partially outlined by blue scaling; 

 no red scaling. Underside very similar to that of the cf , with slightly darker 

 ground colour. Expanse, cf and 9 , 30 mm.

Allotype.— \ 9 , Coldstream, Vane. Is.. B.C., (May 31). Coll. Barnes. 



Paratypes. — 7 cf's, 5 9 's (same locality and date) in Coll. Barnes, and 

 7 cf^'s, 5 9 's in Coll. E. H. Blackmore, Victoria, B.C. 



In the cf sex the variation of the upperside is inconsiderable, consisting in 

 the greater or less width of the dark border of primaries and the degree of dis- 

 tinctness of the marginal spots of secondaries which may either become more or 

 less suffused to form a complete border or be almost completely covered by the 

 blue scaling; occasionally a black discal lunule is present on the primaries. 

 In the 9 the discal lunule is at times erttirely silvered, approaching in this 

 respect pheres; other specimens show a more or less complete row of subterminal 

 bluish lunules on secondaries; in none of our specimens is there anything but 

 the very faintest traces of the red submarginal shading so often seen in typical 

 icarioides. Mr. Blackmore writes us that the food plant of the larva is Lupinus 

 cohimhianus Heller, and that the race is localized to a small hill, 700 feet high, 

 about three miles south of Coldstream. 



ADDITION TO THE ODONATA OF FRANCONIA REGION, N.H. 

 In the Canadian Entomologist for January, 1919, (Vol. LI, 9-15) I pub- 

 lished a list of the Odonata of the Franconia Region. Mrs. Slosson had been 

 good enough to send me her complete list of Odonata collected at Franconia a 

 decade or more ago, and her annotations w^ere included in this paper save for 

 the addition of three species inadvertently omitted by the printer. These bring 

 the list to seventy-five species: 



73. Ophiogomphus rupinsulensis (Walsh). 



74. Gomphus ahbreviatus Hagen. 



75. Tetragoneuria spinigera Selys. 



Mr. L. B. Woodruff has since the publication of the list sent me also a 

 record of Somatochlora elongata (Scudd.) from Bretton Woods.
