Edwin Faxon sends a fine suite of specimens from the White 
Mountains: from Profile Lake and Bald Mt., Franconia Notch; 
White Mt. Notch near Willey House; woodland cleared of 
trees, between Fabyan’s and base of Mt. Washington; sum- 
mit of Mt. Willard. It is strange that this well marked spe- 
cies should have been so long overlooked. 
Three species are added to the Manual region from Ne- 
braska: C. Nebrashensts Dewey, from Anselmo, Custer Co., 
and Hot Creek Basin, Sioux Co., by H. J. Webber. This is 
the first time the species has been found within the present 
limits of Nebraska. C. Douglasii Boott, Anselmo, Custer
