The accompanying synopsis is offered as an aid in identifying 
the above-named species. In order to make the synopsis as com- 
plete as possible, I have included the additional species which are 
given in Frost’s list, most of which were probably éollected in the 
vicinity of Brattleboro. These added species are indicated by af 
asterisk. In his list the names of eleven new species occur which 
have never been described ; these are of course omitted.
