siderable chestnut is found on the higher parts of the area. The chief 

 species taken at this station are Ceresa hubalus, Ceresa taurina, Sticto- 

 cephala inermis, Atymria castaneae, and Telamona redivata. 



Station J, Coy's Glen. This is a remarkable collecting ground with a 

 great variety of species. On the northern slope of the gorge are several 

 good stands of hawthorn and many butternuts. Considerable oak and 

 maple is found thruout the glen and there are large numbers of shrubs and 

 herbs. On the south slope are good stands of thistle, and at higher 

 points there are a number of large oaks. Practically every species of 

 membracids found in the basin has been taken in Coy's Glen, and it is 

 probably the best station in the basin for Glossonotus crataegi, Entylia 

 hactriana, and Ceresa Palmeri. 



Station K, the west side of the valley from Coy's Glen to Newfield. 

 Considerable fine old timber, particularly oak and chestnut, grows here. 

 Farm lands and pastures make up the region. There are many neglected 

 roadsides with good growths of elder, Virginia creeper, sweet clover, thistle, 

 and ragweed. The rugged country gives a variety of floristic conditions. 

 A number of species of the genus Telamona are found in this station, 

 and Ceresa diceros, Ceresa bubalus, and Campylenchia latipes are abundant. 



Station L, the floor of the valley between Ithaca and Enfield. This is 

 rich swampy land, overgrown in places with daisy, thistle, sweet clover, 

 and sedges. There is some butternut and oak. A few cultivated areas 

 are found. Ceresa hubalus, Enchenopa binotata, Campylenchia latipes, 

 Stictocephala lutea, and Entylia hactriana have been commonly taken at 

 this station. 



Station M, the hills on the east side of the valley from Buttermilk Falls 

 southward. These slopes are densely wooded, mostly with second-growth 

 timber — butternut, oak, hickory, maple, and pine. It is dark and 

 gloomy under the trees and there is little underbrush. This is a poor 

 station for Membracidae. 



Station N, Buttermilk Gorge. The steep slopes of the gorge are thickly 

 grown up with young oaks and maples. There are few herbaceous plants, 

 but large areas of blackberries and raspberries are found. This is the best 

 station in the basin for the genera Glossonotus and Telamona. 



Station 0, South Hill, from the Morse Chain Works to the village of 

 Danby. This is a large territory, gradually ascending from Ithada south- 

 ward. There is little timber. One small clump of butternut in this
