Gainesville, Hall County, is another localit}^ on the Piedmont 

 Plateau, altitude about 1,000 feet. Collecting chiefly around the 

 City reservoir about a mile west of town. 



Wrens is in Jefferson Co. a few miles south of Augusta, in flat 

 country near the Fall line. Collecting here was confined to a 

 small standing pool near the railroad track, while waiting for a 

 relief train to appear to carry us away from the scene of the 

 wreck of the train on which we had been traveling. 



Blackshear, Pierce Co., is in the flat and sandy, poorly drained 

 wire grass and long leaf pine country. It is a fine localit}-, collect- 

 ing being done chiefly along a branch of the Satilla River and in a 

 weed filled pond. 



Thalman, in Glynn Co. , is very similar to Blackshear. Collect- 

 ing was done along the ditches near the railroad track, full of vege- 

 table and animal life. 



St. Simon's Island is in Glynn Co., about 14 miles from Bruns- 

 wick. It does not rise more than 4 or 5 feet above the sea, is 

 covered with live oak, pinp, palmetto, salt marshes and cultivated 

 fields. Several fresh water ponds afford at a favorable season 

 aquatic collecting. 



Athens, Clarke Co., in the Piedmont Plateau, is at an elevation 

 of a little less than 1,000 feet. A swiftly flowing stream, coursing 

 over large rocks near the old bobbin mill, 2 miles from Athens, and 

 small turbid pools nearer the town afforded fair collecting. 



Spring Creek, in Decatur Co., is the best collecting grounds 

 known to me in Georgia. The creek itself is clear and deep, with 

 sandy, or in places rocky bottom. Along its course are many quiet 

 bayous covered with spatterdock leaves, and by its banks many 

 cypress "bays" in which at low water are shallow forest pools 

 filled with life. The surrounding country is covered with long 

 leaf pine forest, or under cultivation. 



Bainbridge, Decatur Co., and close to the Alabama and Florida 

 lines, is on the Flint River, a large turbid stream. The most 

 favorable collecting was at Douglas Lake, 4 miles south of the 

 town. This is a clear, shallow lake, filled with aquatic vegetation 

 and surrounded by moss draped oaks and cypresses. 



Oglethorpe, seat of Macon Co., is in fairly flat country, a little 

 below the Fall line. Favorable collecting was found at a mill dam 

 and the stream below it, near the town.
