* Although Linsley gives this species as "very common" at New Haven (in 1842), 

 it has not since been met with, either by myself or any other collector in the State, so 

 far as I am aware. Hence I am forced to regard its occurrence, at present, as purely 

 accidental, and this without doubting Linsley's statement that it was once common. 

 Indeed, I have recently seen two of Linsley's mounted specimens.
