REHX AND HEBARD 185 



westernmost records are ^Nlinncsota'^'*; North Platte, Nebraska, 

 and Texas (probably Dallas), the species apparently not reaching 

 far beyond the limits of the naturally well watered regions. ^^ 

 The insect is numerous and widely distributed over the Upper 

 Austral Zone of the central Atlantic and upper Mississippi 

 Valley regions of the United States, but is found local and usually 

 quite scarce in the lowlands of the southeastern states.

^ Though not so stated by Lugger, it is vii'tually certain that the species is 

 common in Minnesota only as far north as the border of the Canadian Zone. 

 Scudder's record of this species from the Red River Settlements, Manitoba, 

 applies to C. saltans. 



^^ Scudder's records of hrevipennis from California and ensifer from Nevada 

 Sipply to C . fasciaius vicinus, to which insect the present species shows decided 

 similarity in manj' respects, but rriay be readily separated by the differences 

 of coloration and genitaUa.
