common and widely distributed species have been omitted. Similarly, 
many records for Erie, Fulton, and Tompkins Counties have been abbre- 
viated or omitted, since their inclusion would but lengthen the paper 
and add little to the data; such records are indicated by “ ete.” 
Fulton County, with a known crane-fly fauna of more than two hundred 
species, probably has the largest local list as known for any region of 
similar size in the world. The other counties that are well known are 
Tompkins, Cortland, Herkimer (Osten Sacken, Needham, and Alexander), 
Albany (Young), and Erie (Van Duzee). Considerable data from Hamil- 
ton County (Young), Genesee County (Knight), and Chenango County, 
are likewise available. Theregion around New York City is not completely 
known, the most valuable collections from that section being those made 
by Frost in Westchester County and by Banks in Nassau County.
