slender outstanding sensory setae. Length, 1.5 mm. 
The specimens collected by the Expedition agree with my European exam- 
ples of the species. 
Folsomia quadrioculata occurs on damp ground under stones, wood or fallen 
leaves, in humus and in moss, under loose bark, in flower pots, and on the. sea- 
shore under driftwood, stones or seaweed. The species is easily recognized by 
its broad body, characteristic dirty grey colour and slow movements. When 
disturbed it springs actively, in spite of its short furcula. In Finland it winters 
full grown and comes to life now and then on mild days; never appearing on 
the snow, however, Init remaining among leaves or in moss in the woods (Lin- 
naniemi, '12). 
This species, one of the commonest collembolans in northern and middle 
Europe, has been reported from the following Arctic localities: Nova Zembla, 
Spitzbergen, King Charles land, White island, Bear island, Jan Mayen and 
Greenland. 
From Canada, I have received specimens recently from Mr. Charles Mac- 
namara, taken by him in dead leaves, October, 1917, at Arnprior, Ont. 
In the United States, the species has been recorded from Minnesota by 
Guthrie, some of whose specimens I have studied through the courtesy of Prof. 
Henry F. Nachtrieb.
