Chloroperla rivttlorum, Pict. — Generally distributed along the torrents. All 

 the specimens collected appear to pertain to this species. 



Isopteryx torrentium, Pict. — Generally, but sparsely, distributed. The examples 

 appear to belong here rather than to trip unci at a, Scop, fflava, Pict.). 



Leuctra cylindrica, Pict. — Here and there ; a few examples. (It is scarcely 



probable that this is the cylindrica of De Geer). L. nigra, Pict. — One example 



from near the Statzer-See should probably be referred here. 



Taniopteryx prcetextata, Burm. ? — Val Poseg. In the same locality was 



found another species of the genus, -which I cannot identify. 



Nemoura inconspicua, Pict. — Yal Poseg. 

 Ephemeeid-s;. 



The few materials for this Family are in Mr. Eaton's hands, and have not yet 

 been fully determined. A large Heptagenia allied to longicauda, Steph., was very 

 common at the Lake St. Moritz ; another species of the same genus, allied to semi- 

 colorata, Curt., occurred sparinglyin other localities. A Ba'etis was found at the 

 Statzer-See. 



Odonata. 



Sympetrum striolatnm, Chp., and S. scoticum, Donov. — Statzer-See. S. 



meridionale, Selys. — Sparingly, usually along the road-sides far from water ; infested 

 with the red Acari to the attacks of which this species seems so particularly liable. 



Cordulia inetallica, V. d. L., C. alpestris, Selys, and C. arctica, Zett. — Statzer- 

 See (vide ante, p. 141). 



JEschna juncea, L., and M. borealis, Zett. — Statzer-See (vide ante p. 141). 



Three or four other species of Odonata were seen at the Statzer-See, but could 

 not be caught on account of the boggy nature of the ground ; amongst them was 

 one of the Agrionidai (probably Enallagma cyathigerum, Clip.).

 and the narrower pronotum, with the central longitudinal incision to 

 posterior lobe narrower, but more sharply defined.
