The specimens described by me as a Ceuthopbilus beloug to this 

 species, though separately described at the same time. 



Specimens are recorded as having been taken, or have been seen 

 by me, from Perry Co., 111., Dr. E. R. Boardman (Uhler) ; Illi- 

 nois (Uhler, Comstock, McNeill) ; Southern Illinois and Rock 

 Island, 111. (Uhler); Red River, Manitoba (Caulfield) ; Carbery, 

 Manitoba, in the gizzard of a sparrowhawk (Fletcher) ; Northern 

 Minnesota, leaping about in the grass at midday (Scudder) ; Denison, 

 Crawford Co., Iowa, July 13, 15, 20 (J. A. Allen) ; Iowa (Osborn) ; 

 Nebraska City and the Platte Valley, Nebr. (F. V, Hayden) ; Ne- 

 braska City, West Point, and Pine Ridge, Nebr. (Bruner) ; Northeast 

 Nebraska (Bruner) ; Berber Co., Kans., and Topeka, Kans., Cragin 

 (Bruner); Missouri (Broadhead) ; Sedalia, Mo. (U. S. Nat. Mus.) ; 

 Dakota (Bruner), and Colorado, 5,000' (Morrison) ; so that its general 

 range appears to be between the Mississippi River or a little east of 

 the main stream to the Rocky Mountains between Lat. 37° and 50° 

 North. But I have two specimens in my collection, one from North 

 Carolina (Shute), the other from El Dorado Co., Calif., 4,000' (Giss- 

 ler), both of them far beyond the otherwise known limits of the 

 species. Of the latter locality I entertain no doubt, especially as I 

 have recently found in the Museum of Comparative Zoology a single 

 specimen collected by Morrison in Arizona; but as to the former I am 

 inclined to believe the label became accidentally attaclied to the wrong 

 insect, particularly as Shute's collection was made on the seaboard.
