Notes on Cicindela Hentzii. 



BY L. E. HOOD. 



The first specimens of this Cicindelid were discovered in the 

 town of Milton, Mass., situated south of Boston but a few miles, 

 by Dr. T. W. Harris, and were described by Prof. Hentz under 

 the name of Cicindela kemorrhoidalis in the Trans. Anier. Phil. 

 Soc., vol. iii, New Series, p. 254. 



Specimens were sent abroad to the Count De Jean, who 

 changed the name to C. hcntzii in honor of its first describer. 



I understand that specimens of this species were at this time 

 very rare, and Dr. Gould states in his article read before the 

 Boston Soc. Nat. His. in 1834, that "Dr. Harris has never 

 found it except between the ist and 2oth of August, though 

 he has often sought it at other seasons." 



The habitat of this insect is extremely local, but undergoing 

 interesting changes year by year, slowly spreading, not only 

 into towns adjacent to Milton, but is also found in several 

 localities northeast of Boston points some twelve or fifteen
