(228) Sutton Broad, Norfolk July 1905 (C W.), and Norfolk (at side) ; a female 



(229) Weaver (J. C.) ; a female (230) Whittlesea Mere Mr. Whitwell. 1841. (J. C), 

 and 11 ; a female (231) H. D. 1813 (J. C), and Essex (at side). 



Agrion armatum. — The name is reversed, shewing; that C. W. Dale recognised 

 that the eight insects above it were wrongly named. All in fact seem to be 

 Agrion piilchellum, except (233), which is very teneral and may be A. pttella, and 

 (234), which is so dilapidated that one would scarcely like to assign it a name at 

 all. The eight insects are labelled as fo'lovvs: — a male (232) Whittlesea 1843 

 (J. C.) ; a male (233) var. like hastulata ? Grl. Wootton (J. C.) ; six females 

 (234-9) Norfolk July 1905 (C. W.). The last has in addition Norfolk (at side), no 

 doubt intended for all six. (236, 237, 239) are of the blue form, while (238) has 

 a tendency in that direction. 



Agrion haatulatum. — Under this name there are in the cabinet six insects : the 

 last, however (245), is a male example of E. cyathigerum. The male (242) has no 

 history : the others are labelled as follows :— a male (240) Scotld- R. W.* (J. C. red 

 ink) ; two males (241, 3; Mus. Childr. ; a female (244) Scotld- R. W. (J. C. red 

 ink), and a blank green label. These specimens are of great interest, since the 

 species was rediscovered on the River Spey by Colonel Yerbury in 1900. 



Agrion cyathigerum. — There are eighteen insects standing in the cabinet to 

 this name, but of these, two females (252, 3) seem to me to be A. pueUa and 

 A. pulehellum respectively : being, however, without history of any kind, they are 

 unimportant. Three males (257, 259, 263), and a female (254) are unlabelled. 

 The remaining twelve are : — a female (246) brunnea Ev.; a female (247) brunnea 

 Ev.,&nA Evans (printed) ; a male (248) Thorne (J. C. red ink), cyathigerum (J. C), 

 Aug 11 : 1837 (J. C, yellow label filled in) ; a male (249), R. C. Pond Gl. Wootton 

 (C. W.) ; a male (250), July 9, 1842 (J. C. filled in), Wolmer (J. C.) ; a female 

 (251; 16 (printed), and a blank yellow label ; a female (255), May 31, 1842 (J. C. 

 filled in), Glanvilles Wootton (at side) ; a male (256), Norfolk July. 1905 (C. W.) ; 

 a male (258), Portland, and Portland (at side) ; a male (260) cyathigerum (J. C. ? ), 

 31/5/42 (J. C.) ; a male (261), July 6, 61 (J. C. ?), July 17 1861 (yellow label 

 filled in), and a small blank yellow label; a male (262), Parley (J. C). In 

 addition with this species I should class : - a male (245) placed with A. haatulatum, 

 with a blank red label, and Sutherland fat side) ; a female (285) unlabelled ; and 

 a male (290) labelled Sutton Broad July 1905 (C. W.) ; both placed with 

 A. pulehellum in the cabinet. 



Agrion puella. — Sixteen insects are placed as belonging to this species; two, 

 however (270, 276), I should assign to A. pulehellum. Of the remaining fourteen 

 two males (265, 273) and three females (275, 277, 278) are without labels. The rest 

 are labelled as follows : — two males (264, 266), Whittlesea (J. C. red ink), and a 

 blank pink label ; a male (267) W. Mere (J. C. red ink) ; a male (268) Whittlesea 

 1844 (J. C), and a blank pink label ; a female (269) Marl-pits New For. July 

 4th, /44 (J. C), ? furcatum?, and July 4, 1844 (J. C.) ; a female (271) June ? 1, 

 1844 (filled in), 6/1/44 (J. C), furcatum ? ? , and Glanvilles Wootton (at side) ; 

 a male (272) Whittlesea (J. C. ? red ink) and a blank pink label; a male (274) ^ 



* Richard Weaver's captures appai-ently were made in Sutherland in 1842 (in litt., 

 C. W. Dale, 8 Feb., 1904).
