Tostegoptera lanceolata Say. 



Found creeping out of holes in the patches of buffalo-grass on the hills 

 near the Garden of the Gods, August 13 and 10. A few specimens had taken 

 shelter under the tufts of grass, but generally they were clumsily crawl- 

 ing over the surface of the ground. Each hill furnished a few specimens, 

 and they were usually found on the exposed summits, rather than on 

 the sides or in the valleys. A careful search on the hills at Manitou 

 failed to disclose anj' of them, and none were found in any of the other 

 localities visited.
