152 ENTOMOLOGICAL NEWS. [May, '02 



late in the season for them, as my friend Browning took them 

 as early as the latter part of April, and in numbers the middle 

 of May. They were found on the salt flats from Saltair to 

 within three or four miles of the city. 



Under pieces of lumber and other drift-wood along the beach 

 were found numbers of Bembidiivi henshaivi, Haywd. approx- 

 imatum Lee. , and ephippiger Lee. A single specimen each of 

 Tachys corax Lee,, Pogonus planatus Horn and Amara sp. 

 were found. Agabus disintegrahis Cr. had been washed ashore 

 by the waves of the lake. A species of Philonthus was taken 

 on the lake shore. Under drift on the beach and near the edge 

 of salt pools were found Dermestes tnarmorahis Say and talpimis 

 Mann. Three species of Histers were taken under drift : Sa- 

 primis lubriais Lee, contrachis Csy. and estriahis Lee. A few 

 specimens of Aphodhis iriqumahis Hbst. were picked up here 

 and a single specimen of the Tenebrionid genus, Blapstiiius 

 was taken. Tanarthus salicola Lee. was rather common under 

 drift. 



On my return a few hours stop at Cheyenne, Wyo., per- 

 mitted me to collect a short time north of the city limits, but 

 with poor return. TricJwdcs ornatus Say was found on thistles, 

 and Canthon praticola Lee. and Aphodhis coloradensis Horn 

 occurred under cow-chips. Acmceops pratensis I^aich was 

 found on sunflowers ; Druchus paupcrculus Lee. was common 

 on thistle flowers.
