ground, or flying over the water. All seen were old specimens. 

 Possibly this species, in its early imaginal life (the period when 

 I observed G. vastus and hybridus), may also leave the river, 

 and possibly the old males of vastus and hybridus which escape 

 death in the fields and the woods, return to pass their declining 

 hours near their birthplace. But at present the movements of 

 imago Gomphiues and the ecological factors involved are 

 unknown. 



32. Gomphus notatus. 



Cumberland River, September 30. As observed the habits 

 are similar to G. plagiatus. An exuvia, apparently of this 

 species, was found along the Cumberland June 7. 



33. Gomphus spiniceps. 



Horton's Ford, Tenn., August 14, and Clinch River P. O. 

 August 14, 1899 (C. C. A.). 



34. Lanthus albistylus. 



Sycamore Creek, June 5, one teueral 9 Perhaps the nymphs 

 described by Hagen (Trans. Am. Ent. Soc., 1885, p. 281) from 

 Gregson's Spring, Ky., maybe this species. 



35. Hagenins brevistylus. 



Clinchport, Va., Aug. 13, 1899, a nymph (C. C. A.). 



36. Boyeria vinosa 



Holston River, Holston County, Va., a nymph ; Bridgeport, 

 Ala., October 31, 1901 ; Springvale, September 5, and White 

 Pine, September 6, 1900, Tenn. (C. C. A.). Roan Station, 

 Tenn., Septembers, 1900. Lancaster Thomas (communicated 

 by Dr. Calvert). 



37. Epiaeschna heros. 



Reared May 16, June 2, 3, Nashville. Nymphs were all 

 collected in ditches draining marshes on Morrow Farm. It 

 may be of interest to note that, at the time nymphs were 

 collected, a chimney-building crayfish, which Prof. Hay pro- 

 nounces new, was taken in numbers in the dredging net. No 

 images of heros other than those I reared were seen by me in 

 Tennessee. 



38 JEschna constricta. 



Springvale, Tenn., September 21, 1901, one 9 , apparently 

 this species ( C. C. A.) ; Roan Station, Tenn., September 3,
