sient ground puddles, open woods pools and roadside ditches. The 

 larvae will appear several times in a season, following successive filling 

 of the pools by rain, but this probably does not indicate more than one 

 annpal generation, only that some of the eggs did not hatch at the first

Distribution: Gulf States to southern Canada, westward in the 

 warmer timbered country to British Columbia.
