 1920. a single female collected by Chas. C. Deam. We have had no record

49. Progoniphiis ohscurus Rambnr. Creek at Indian Village, Noble Co.. 

 July 4, 1917 ; Salamonie River, Huntington Co.. August 5, 1917. several 

 caught and others seen, many had wings darkly stained with crude oil : 

 Wabash River, Bluffton, Wells Co., Augiist 20. 1917. only one seen, a male 

 with oil stained wings. At this time there was no crude oil along the 

 Wabash River near Bluffton, and I think the Wabash River specimen was 

 undoubtedly a stray from the Salamonie about twenty miles away. 



50. Hagenius ircvistylus Selys. Bluffton. Wells Co.. June 21. 1919, a 

 single female, which alighted on John W. Carnall and was captured by 

 him as he stood at his office door in the center of the business part of town ; 

 Aboite River. Devils Hollow. Allen Co.. July 13, 1919. 



51. Ophiogomphus rupiii.sin()i;<i.s Wal.'-h. Creek at Indian Village, Noble 

 Co., July 4, 1917. On this date this rare species was flying with Gomphus 

 dilatatus, lividus and fnrcifcr. a remarkable Gomphine as emblage. 



53. Gomphus crassus Hagen. In June. 1919 and 1920, this species was 

 abundant about ripples in the AVabash River near Bluffton. During their 

 years of abundance it i.s no rare thing to see G. cra-Hsu.'^. fraternus and gras- 

 lincUus hawking their way over the asphalt streets in the business 

 part of town, and at such times they are not infreiiuently captured clinging 

 to screen doors or similar supports, but they rarely if ever enter houses, 

 in marked contrast to Epiaa^cJuKi hrrox which is more rarely seen abroad, 

 but is often taken indoors. 



54. Gomphus dihitatus Rambnr. Creek at Indian Village, Noble Co.. 

 July 4, 1917. 



55. Gomphus ca-ilis Selys. On June 15, 1919, along the east end of the 

 south side of Shriner Lake, Whitley Co.. this species and G. spicatus were 

 common. Both species rested on blue grass heads, and on the leaves of low 

 maples not over two feet high ; e.pilis also rested on dead weed stems and 

 the windrow of debris along the lake, and .'<p'catus often rested on the 

 ground. One spicatus male had a serious old healed injury to the throax 

 at the base of the right front wing so the wing movement was greatly re- 

 stricted, but before capture nothing unusual in its actions was noticed. 

 Exilis was aLso taken at a creek and swamp five miles east of Lagrange, 

 Lagrange Co., June 20 and 27, 1920.
