68. Agabus arcticus Payk. (^ subfasciatus Lee.) 



Caribou Island (Packard). Very common West St. Modest, Red 

 Bay, also Hopedale. In North America this very distinct species is 

 confined to Labrador. Arctic Siberia, Sweden, Finland to 69'' north, 

 Scotland, Alsatia (Sharp). 



69. Agabus Erichsoni G. & H. (= nigroaneus Er. = lutosus Croteh.) 

 West St. Modest, Nachvak; rare. I have collected this species 



with Mr. Blanchard, at Tyngsboro, Massachusetts. It looks super- 

 ficially very much like an Ilybius. 



I also have specimens from Aweme, Manitoba (Criddle) and 

 Chatham, Michigan. Sweden, Finland, France, Germany (Sharp). 



70. Agabus tristis Aube. 



Nachvak, several : one from Cape Charles ; all specimens were 

 the black variety. Mr. Bowditch found the brown variety very 

 common in the Lakes of Clouds, Mt. Washington, N. H., in July. I 

 was much disappointed not to find it there in September. 



Both forms occur in Alaska. Dr. Van Dyke sent me a liberal 

 series from Dutch Harbor, Unalaschka. Hamilton mentions its oc- 

 currence in America north of Arctic circle, also Lake Tahoe, Cali- 

 fornia, New Mexico, and Arctic Siberia. 



71. Agabus fuscipennis Payk. 



About twenty specimens from West St. Modest. A very distinct 

 species, not previously recorded from North America. Siberia, 

 Sweden, Finland, North Germany (Sharp). An allied, apparently 

 undescribed species, considerably larger, is found in Alberta. 



72. Agabus Isevidorsus Lee. 



Caribou Island (Packard). This is evidently a manuscript name 

 and I do not know what species is referred to. 



73. Agabus sp. 



An undetermined Agabus is mentioned in Fletcher's list of species 

 from interior of Labrador. 



74. Rhantus bistriatus Bergst. 



Red Bay, one specimen. Mt. Washington, N. H., Lakes of 

 Clouds (5,000 feet) Bowditch), and at Hermit Lake (3,700 feet) 

 by myself. Antigonish, Nova Scotia; Tyngsboro, Mass. (Blanch-
