Additional Records of Tabanidae (Horse-Flies) 
of North Carolina. 
By C. S. BRIMLEY AND F. SHERMAN, Jr., Raleigh, N. C. 
In ENToMoLocicAL News for October, 1904, the writers 
published a list of 40 species of Tabanidae then known from 
North Carolina. Continued collecting since that time has 
added 20 other species, some of them new, and all but one of 
which have been named for us by Prof. Jas. S. Hine, to whom 
we are under renewed obligations. We have, therefore, now 
on record a total of 60 species for the State, two of which (No. 
40 of the 1904 list and No. 60 of the present list) have not 
yet been definitely located. Zabanus allynii has not been col- 
lected by the writers to date, but all the others have been 
taken by us or by assistants in the office of the junior author. 
Specimens of nearly all are in our collections. A few records 
from Pendleton in 1895 are from collections made by Mr. C. 
W. Johnson. Rev. A. H. Manee, at Southern Pines, N. C., 
has also collected somewhat in this family, 
We have numbered these additional species consecutively 
with the 1904 list. The letters in parentheses after the name 
of a locality denote its geographical location in the State :— 
thus, E.=eastern, W.—western, C.—central, E. C.=east-cen- 
tral, etc. We also append new records as to the geographical 
or seasonal range of some of the species mentioned in the 
1904 list.
