I remained at Capon Springs, W. Va. from the middle of June to nearly 

 the end of August. Insects were not very abundant, and but a few rare 

 species were found. Even the fungi which grew plentifully in August failed, 

 with the sieve, to give more than two or three Homalotae, some very ordinary 

 species of Gyrophaena, and a few Boletobius, and Oxyporus. 



Staphylinus fossator was not rare in fungi. I observed that Cicindela pa- 

 truela was double brooded ; the first brood disappeared about the end of 

 June, and the second appeared towards the end of August, C. rufiventris ap- 

 peared first about the middle of July and remained abundant until the end 



of August. Dicerca was taken in moderate numbers on a persimmon tree. 



(Drospyros virginiana) in front of the hotel, from the beginning to the mid-
