Dec, I9I3-] Schaeffer: Notes on Rhizophagus. 311 



Among the European species of Rhi::ophagits sent me by Mr. A. 

 Mecignon was a specimen of R. dispar which looked very familiar 

 and proved to be the same as our R. dimidiatus. 



MISCELLANEOUS NOTES. 



Cicindela longilabris Say. — Typical specimens of this species have 

 been taken by John WoodgaTe in the Jemez Mountains, New Mexico, 

 at an altitude of 7,500-8,000 ft., distant ten miles from Jemez Springs, 

 in June of this year. Of the seven specimens captured five are iden- 

 tical with the form familiar to us as found on our northeastern 

 boundary. Two are immacula:te, a little less metallic above, surface 

 of elytra a little smoother, and of a darker brown color, nearly black. 

 The capture is interesting as it places the type form several degrees 

 farther south than it appears to have been reported. Jemez Springs 

 is in latitude 30° 45'. — Edw. D. Harris. 



Coscinoptera dominicana. — The adults of this species are not un- 

 common on a variety of trees in May, June and July. The cocoons 

 have been found under stones and logs in the nests of the ant, Formica 

 schaufussij and adults have been bred from cocoons found at New- 

 foundland, N. J., April 27, 1907, beetle hatched about May 18, and 

 Roselle Park, N. J., April 13, 1913, beetle hatched about May 15. — 

 Wm. T. Davis. 



Chlaenius leucoscelis. — This species has not been abundant near 

 New York. Most of the specimens in local collections have been 

 taken under stones by the Croton River by Mr. Wm. T. Davis, or 

 near the same locality by Mr. C. L. Brownell ; Mr. Chas. Schaeffer 

 has also found it at Suffern. Mr. Davis collecting on the banks of 

 the Potomac near the Great Falls, Va., found that a single individual 

 which he pursued stayed under water nearly a minute. — C. W. Leng. 



Lophoglossus. — The species of this genus prefer very wet places. 

 Mr. Brownell dug a number of specimens out of a water-soaked log 

 near Westwood, N. J., and Mr. E. A. Bischoff has found them cling- 

 ing to the under side of logs in water, like water beetles. — C. W. Leng.
