By Prof F. H. Snow. 



Our collecting party spent twelve days (July 12tli to 26th,) in the above locality, 

 thirty-one miles from Denver. Our camp was fi.xed at an estimated elevation of 

 7,500 feet above the level of the sea. My assistants were Messrs. Richard Foster 

 and L. L. Dyclie, students of the University. The collections consisted chietly of 

 plants, insects and birds. The following list is presented as a slight contribution to 

 a better knowledge of the geographical distribution of American Coleoptera. My 

 acknowledgments are due to Dr. John L. Le Conte and Dr. Geo. H. Horn, of Phila- 

 delphia, for the determination of species not previously in my cabinet. The num- 

 bers are those of Crotch's check-list.
