LYMNZIDA OF NORTH AMERICA. 325 
Elodes is a characteristic species of the humid portions of the 
Transition and Upper Austral life zones. The records from the Boreal 
(Canadian) life zone are few in number. This paucity of records is 
doubtless due to the mixing of elodes with palustris or reflexa. With 
the execption of a few records from the Nova Scotian region, elodes 
is confined to the Canadian and Upper Mississippian regions, and to 
the drainage areas of the St. Lawrence and Mississippi rivers.
