CATALOGUE OF INSECTS. 715 



Ocean County. Rather an indefinite locality, but means usually either 

 Lakewood or Lahaway ; both of them in the pines, so that the general 

 character of the territory is the same. 



Ocean Grove, Monmouth County. Adjoining and similar to Asbury Park j 

 save that it has more woodland. 



Ocean View, Cape May County. On the mainland, three miles northwest of 

 Sea Isle City, just above the marsh land and at the beginning of the pine 

 barrens. 



Orange, Essex County. A somewhat indefinite locality, as generally used, 

 but means usually the rising ground at the base of the first ridge of the 

 Orange Mts., where there is vegetation in great variety and much culti- 

 vated land, but also a few wooded patches and slopes. The forest trees 

 are deciduous. 



Orange Mts., = Watchung Mts. A somewhat indefinite term, but means gen- 

 erally the first range of hills back of South Orange and extending toward 

 Montclair. The country is hilly, broken, quite well wooded and with 

 many small brooks and streams. All the Newark collectors range in this 

 territory. 



Palisades. Refers usually to the vicinity of Fort Lee, north and south. 



Pamrapo, Hudson County. On the New York Bay slope of the narrow 

 peninsula, three miles south of Jersey City. 



Passaic, Passaic County. At the edge of the meadows, with marsh and swamp 



land ; rising ground to the north. 

 Patcong Creek, Atlantic County. About five miles long, runs south and 



west from a little pond into Great Egg Harbor just west of Somers Point, 



through pine and swamp land. 

 Paterson, Passaic County, at the falls of the Passaic River, a broken, rocky 



country, with some deciduous woodland and rocky river shores with 



occasional sand banks. 

 Pelham Manor— see Bronx Park. 

 Penns Grove, Salem County, on the Delaware River, opposite Wilmington. 



Perth Amboy, Middlesex County. At the head of Raritan bay. Sand and 

 clay rising somewhat to the north, swampy, flats along the river, scrub 

 land with little larger timber, conifers and deciduous, to the south and 

 west. 



Petersburg, Cape May County, three miles southeast of Tuckahoe, in th e 

 pines, near Cedar swamp creek. 



Philadelphia. Some species collected near this city are cited where their 



general distribution is such that their occurrence in the Delaware River 



Valley is almost certain. 

 Philadelphia neck. The low marshy meadows near the Delaware, south of 



the city. The species collected here will almost certainly occur in 



similar situations on the New Jersey side. 

 Plainfield, Union County. On the rolling plain at the base of the Orange 



Mountains, ground rising to the north and becoming stony and wooded 



at the hills, between which are small streams.
