﻿specimen 
  of 
  Conocephaloides

  taken 
  on 
  a

  tree. 
  

   Around 
  the 
  volcano 
  the 
  Httle 
  GryUids 
  Paratrigonidium 
  varians, 
  

   grande 
  and 
  pacifictim 
  are 
  found, 
  while 
  lower 
  down, 
  towards 
  Olaa, 
  

   is 
  a 
  rich 
  locality 
  for 
  these, 
  P. 
  viridescens, 
  fHicimi 
  and 
  freycinetiae, 
  

   being 
  found 
  in 
  addition 
  to 
  these 
  above 
  named. 
  I 
  have 
  spoken 
  

   of 
  the 
  distinct 
  habits 
  of 
  these 
  difhcult 
  species 
  in 
  the 
  Fauna 
  Ha- 
  

   waiiensis. 
  Leptogryllus 
  elongatus 
  is 
  found 
  in 
  the 
  fern 
  forest 
  in 
  

   some 
  numbers, 
  but 
  L. 
  similis 
  is 
  much 
  rarer. 
  

  

  NEUROPTERA. 
  

  

  Of 
  the 
  Hemerobiidae 
  our 
  single 
  species 
  of 
  Megalomtts 
  is 
  com- 
  

   mon; 
  Nesomicromus 
  is 
  very 
  well 
  represented 
  by 
  vagus, 
  paradoxus, 
  

   longispinosus 
  , 
  brunnescens, 
  ruhrinervis, 
  subochraceus 
  and 
  mini- 
  

   mus. 
  The 
  second 
  and 
  third 
  of 
  these 
  are 
  the 
  most 
  interesting 
  and 
  

   the 
  rarest. 
  Lacewing 
  flies 
  are 
  very 
  common; 
  Anomalochrysa 
  

   peles, 
  montana, 
  rufescens, 
  frater, 
  longipennis, 
  deceptor, 
  raphi- 
  

   dioides, 
  proteus 
  and 
  rhododora 
  are 
  all 
  found, 
  though 
  rufescens 
  and 
  

   raphidioides 
  prefer 
  a 
  lower 
  elevation 
  on 
  the 
  Kau 
  side; 
  pauros- 
  

   ticta, 
  princeps, 
  and 
  probably 
  others, 
  are 
  found 
  in 
  the 
  densest 
  

   forests 
  in 
  Olaa 
  in 
  the 
  winter 
  months. 
  A. 
  peles, 
  rhododora 
  and 
  

   its 
  remarkable 
  var. 
  xerophylla 
  and 
  longipennis 
  are 
  the 
  most 
  

   desirable 
  of 
  the 
  volcano 
  species. 
  A. 
  montana 
  is 
  peculiar 
  in 
  fre- 
  

   quenting 
  the 
  low-growing 
  shrubs 
  of 
  the 
  open 
  country 
  {i. 
  e., 
  the 
  

   first 
  region 
  described 
  by 
  me) 
  where 
  one 
  disturbs 
  it 
  in 
  numbers 
  

   as 
  one 
  walks 
  along 
  in 
  the 
  daytime, 
  at 
  certain 
  seasons. 
  Formi- 
  

   caleo 
  wilsoni 
  is 
  found 
  in 
  the 
  same 
  open 
  country 
  about 
  two 
  miles 
  

   from 
  the 
  Volcano 
  House 
  on 
  the 
  Kau 
  side. 
  

  

  Of 
  the 
  dragon 
  flies, 
  Anax 
  strenutis 
  and 
  Ncsogonia 
  blackburni 
  

   may 
  be 
  observed 
  anywhere, 
  owing 
  to 
  their 
  powers 
  of 
  flight. 
  

   Specimens 
  of 
  Agrion 
  are 
  numerous 
  around 
  the 
  hotel 
  vegetable 
  

   garden 
  in 
  the 
  fern 
  forest, 
  as 
  well 
  as 
  on 
  the 
  path 
  near 
  Kilauea-iki, 
  

   and 
  generally 
  on 
  the 
  Hilo 
  side 
  of 
  the 
  crater. 
  They 
  are 
  also 
  

   abundant 
  in 
  Olaa 
  and 
  about 
  Hilo. 
  Agrion 
  nigra 
  -hamatum, 
  

   asteliae, 
  amaurodytmn, 
  race 
  peles 
  and 
  var. 
  fallax, 
  calliphya 
  race 
  

   microdemas, 
  nesiotes 
  and 
  deceptor 
  are 
  found 
  close 
  to 
  Kilaiiea, 
  

   to 
  which 
  at 
  low 
  elevations 
  may 
  be 
  added 
  .4. 
  xanthomelas, 
  paci- 
  

   fictnn 
  and 
  blackburni. 
  A. 
  nesiotes 
  is 
  by 
  far 
  the 
  most 
  peculiar 
  

   and 
  interesting 
  of 
  these 
  species 
  and 
  it 
  is 
  not 
  rare. 
  

  

  Psocidae 
  are 
  very 
  numerous 
  in 
  individuals, 
  but 
  the 
  species 
  

   being 
  very 
  unstable 
  in 
  specific 
  and 
  even 
  in 
  generic 
  characters 
  are
