Common and generally distributed, but nowhere abundant. 

 Taken in a moist sandy creek bed with a sparse growth of 

 low herbage; from patches of wet, trampled mud about the 

 margins of a ravine sedge marsh; among the bases of the 

 plants in a thick, waist-high growth of sedges filling a moist 

 ravine; from the damp margins of streams and ponds; among 

 low ground herbage under pond-border thickets; among the 

 herbage of sand and mud-bars ; swept from rank grass in the 

 margins of a lizard's tail marsh; taken from trampled dry 

 mud around watering places; from moist meadow pasture; 

 and from open, grassy fields and forest margin thickets. 



Recorded by Hancock as T. pennata, from Lakeside, Sep-

Local in distribution, but occasionally common in small 

 areas. It was found to be quite numerous about one of the 

 dune ponds, especially on the areas of exposed muck and on 

 the small mossy patches around the margin, but also among 

 the herbaceous growth of the sandy shores, around some 

 small piles of brush, and in the low herbage covering the 

 ground under the willows and aspens forming the pond-margin 

 thicket. All the specimens taken here during both seasons 

 were found in an area of perhaps thirty square yards ; none 

 were found on other apparently similar parts of the pond 

 margin. On one occasion forty-five minutes" search for this 

 species yielded fourteen specimens ; at no other time were 

 they so numerous. It was also taken in the lizard's tail marsh 

 at New Buffalo, where it was most numerous around the drier
