As already mentioned, the great proportion of the Orthoptera and 

 Coleoptera of the State belong to this Carolinian fauna, and a great ma- 

 jority of the same species are found in Ohio, the eastern two-thirds of 

 Kentucky, nearly all of Illinois, Iowa and Missouri and the eastern halves 

 of Nebraska and Kansas. 



To the facts above given many others could doubtless be added by 

 those members of the Academy from the extreme northern or southern 

 portions of the State who have studied rather closely the fauna and flora 

 of their respective areas.
