somewhat intermediate between the ordinary northern form and the 

 southern race known as unguiculatus, V. d. Lind., but more approach 

 the former ; the inferior appendages of the £ are totally yellow. 



Gomphus GrasJini, Rambur. — One $ , Cea, 1692 feet, 8th June. 

 This very local species has hitherto only been known from the west of 

 Erance. The Portuguese $ appears to agree sufficiently with the 

 description. 



Gomphus pulchellus, Selys. — One $ , Sao Marcos da Serra, 23rd 

 May, one ? , on the road from Lisbon to Cintra, 31st May. 



Cordulegaster annulatus, Latr. — Cea, one <$ and one ? , 9th and 

 11th June, one ^, Salamonde, 30th June, over 2000 feet. Of the 

 typical northern form, and not approaching the race immaculifrons, 

 Selys, usual in the South of Europe. 



^SCHNINA. 



Amphiceschna Irene, Eonsc. — One <$ at a stream near Agualva on 

 the road to Cintra, 31st May. A very interesting addition to the 

 Eauna of the Iberian Peninsula. This species is the sole European 

 representative of an otherwise exotic group of forms. 



CALOPTERYGINA. 



Calopteryx splendens, Harris (race xanthostoma, Charp.). — One 

 adult <$ from near Sao Marcos da Serra, 22nd May. 



Calopteryx virgo, L. (race meridionalis, Selys). — One somewhat 

 immature J , from the Estrella, 5th June. 



Calopteryx hamorrhoidalis, V. d. Lind. — One $ and two $ , near 

 Monchique, 18th and 19th May, one <£, between Coimbra and Sao 

 Antonio, 3rd June ; the latter approaches the form usual in the South 

 of Erance. 



AGRIONINA. 



Platycnemis acutipennis, Selys. — Two J, near Sao Marcos da Serra, 

 22nd May. 



Ischnura Graellsi, Rambur. — One $ near Lisbon, 22nd April, 

 two $ and two ? near Almodovar, 7th and 8th May, one $ , Sao Marcos 

 da Serra, 22nd May. There is some amount of variation in these 

 individuals : in the J from Lisbon, and in two of those from near 

 Almodovar, the blue humeral lines on the thorax are totally obliterated ; 

 in another £ from the latter locality they are continuous but narrow : 

 in a $ the 8th segment is totally black above, in another ? it is blue 

 for the greater part.
