Quotes an opinion from Dr. J. L. Leconte that Hitchcock's 

 figure of Mormolucoides articulatus resembles the larva of an 

 ephemerid ; and the consequent wish of Dr. E. Hitchcock that 

 the name should be changed to Palephemera inediaeva.

 species given. The first edition (1862) gave much less space 

 to insects; the second (1874) does not differ from the third, as 

 regards the insects.

 latter believing them probably crustacean. Some are possibly 

 the tracks of insects.
