 wise taken by Mr. Schwarz at Veta Pass, Col., at 11,000 feet. Gen- 

 eral in Europe, Boreal Siberia. T. vii, 164 ; Heydeu, 71.

A single specimen was taken in Canada by Mr. Ulke, and another 

 near Ottawa, Canada, by Mr. W. H. Harrington (T. vii, 191 ; Can. 

 Ent. xvi, 46). These two fine European species have evidently been 

 introduced, whether to perpetuate themselves here the future will 

 determine. Mr. Harrington took the specimen June, 1883, and 

 writes that it has not occurred since (1889).

 Kansas, Snow, and northward to Canada and Nova Scotia (Harring- 

 ton). Europe generally.

 by Dr. Horn, and the American synonymy and distribution of the 

 species as given in his monograph admits of little in addition.
