S2 C April, 



furcatum Clip, imt S rufescena Leach M. B ; a female (279) Gl. Wootton 1842 

 (J. C). — In addition two placed with A. pulchellum I consider belona; here: — a 

 male (280) Freshwater 1880 (pink ink), Freshwater (at side) ; and a female (287) 

 Bentlej (J. C), and Glunvilles Wootton (at side). (252) placed with A. 

 cyathigerum has already been referred to. 



Argion pulchellum. — Sixteen insects stand to this name, but (280, 287), as 

 already mentioned, I should assign to A. piiella and (285, 290) to A. cyathigerum. 

 Those appearing with the reversed name A. armatum have already been discussed. 

 The remaining specimens are: — three males (-81, 2, 3) puella Ev (red ink); 

 a female (28i) July 1905 [C. W.), Norfolk (at side) ; a female (286) cyathigerum 

 Ev puella Ev ; a male (288) puella £/w. (red ink); a male (289) lunulatum Ev.; 

 a female (291) Whittlesea July 1844 (J. C), and a blank pink label ; a female 

 (292) H, and interruptum ; a female (293) fr. Farr (J. (!.) ; a female (294) N, and 

 a blank pink label ; a female (295) with four labels — a blank pink one, Whittlesea 

 I. H. 42, Whittlesea Mere Whitwell 18 45 (J. C), and interruptum ? . It must be 

 borne in mind that this species and A. puella are very closely allied, by some 

 indeed considered scarcely distinct. Consequently identification, especially of poor 

 specimens, is not always satisfactory. 



Agrion mercuriale. — Of the eight examples, four males (296-9) are unlabelled, 

 but the last has New For (at side), and this is evidently intended to refer to all 

 four. A male (300) has June 17 1832 (filled in), and Winchester (at side); 

 another male (301) has June 2 1837 (filled in), and <? Cosmore Com" 1837 

 (J. C. red ink) ; a female (302) has Cosmore (J. C. red ink) ; while another female 

 (303) has July 6 1844 (filled in), New Fo. 7844 (J. C), and Cosmore Q.uag 

 (at side). The last four are of interest since the New Forest is the only cei-tain 

 locality for the species at the present time. 



Agrion minium. — There are eight specimens, a female (304) and two males 

 (305, 308) being without labels. The others are : — a male (306) Chant 46 ; a male 

 (307) Mus. Childr., and minius ; a female (309) W. Mere (J. C. red ink), a blank 

 pink label, W : Mere 1842 (J. C. red ink), and minius ? ; a female (310) ^jp., and 

 a blank pink label; a female (311) Lancashire (printed), Whittlesea (at side); 

 (310) is of the form melanotum [xnealum), while (311) has a tendency in the same 

 direction. 



Agrion tenellnm. — There are sixteen representatives of this interesting little 

 species, but four males (313, 314, 316, 317) and three females (319, 320, 322) are 

 without inscription. Two females (312, 321) simply bear the name "rubellum," 

 while another (315) has "rubellum ? ." The others are labelled as follows: — 

 a male (318) Chant 46 ; a female (323) nr. Racecourse New Fo. 1844 (C. W.), 

 and var. 7? Clip?; two females (324, 326) 1842 (J. C), and a blank red label; 

 a female (325), July 15 1839 (J. C. filled in) ; a female (327) ? rubellum v. h. var. ? 

 ? ezonata Step 1 (J. C), and a blank green label. (319) is of the form 

 erythrog antrum (ruhratumj ; (322, 324, 325, 326, 327) are of the form melanogastrum 

 {asneatui7ij, while (323) approaches it ; (322) is in the teneral state. 



Agrion elegans. — To this name there stand seventeen insects, of which three 

 males (330, 338, 339) and three females (329, 331, 342) are unlabelled. The 

 remainder bear labels as follows : — a male (328) Norfolk July 1905 (C. W.) ;
