  The 
  specimens 
  above 
  described 
  and 
  listed 
  were 
  collected 
  in 
  New 
  

   York 
  state 
  by 
  Drs 
  Fitch 
  and 
  Lintner. 
  The 
  species 
  is 
  also 
  known 
  from 
  

   Massachusetts. 
  I 
  have 
  not 
  met 
  with 
  it 
  in 
  either 
  immature 
  or 
  adult 
  

   stage, 
  and 
  know 
  nothing 
  of 
  its 
  habitat 
  or 
  habits. 
  

  

  Dr 
  Hagen 
  has 
  carefully 
  described 
  a 
  nymph 
  from 
  Cambridge 
  Mass., 
  

   referable 
  by 
  supposition 
  to 
  this 
  species 
  in 
  the 
  Trans. 
  Am. 
  ent. 
  soc. 
  1885, 
  

   12 
  : 
  262. 
  If 
  the 
  nymph 
  be 
  full 
  grown, 
  as 
  he 
  thought, 
  there 
  can 
  be 
  but 
  

   Httle 
  doubt 
  that 
  it 
  belongs 
  to 
  this 
  species. 
  However, 
  his 
  description 
  

   agrees 
  in 
  every 
  point 
  excepting 
  size 
  with 
  G. 
  fraternus 
  bred 
  by 
  me 
  in 
  

   Illinois. 
  Unfortunately 
  I 
  did 
  not 
  get 
  time 
  while 
  in 
  Cambridge 
  for 
  the 
  

   comparison 
  of 
  my 
  own 
  nymphs 
  with 
  Hagen's 
  types. 
  I 
  have 
  stated 
  the 
  

   difference 
  in 
  size 
  in 
  the 
  foregoing 
  table. 
  These 
  being 
  ail 
  the 
  differences 
  

   known 
  to 
  me, 
  I 
  have 
  nothing 
  farther 
  to 
  add 
  concerning 
  this 
  species.

  This 
  species 
  is 
  abroad 
  during 
  the 
  first 
  two 
  weeks 
  of 
  June. 
  It 
  has 
  not 
  

   hitherto 
  been 
  reported 
  from 
  New 
  York 
  state, 
  but 
  I 
  have 
  seen 
  a 
  specimen 
  

   collected 
  near 
  Ithaca. 
  The 
  nymph 
  is 
  unknown. 
  I 
  have 
  not 
  seen 
  the 
  

   imago 
  alive. 
  Prof. 
  Kellicott 
  wrote 
  of 
  it, 
  '' 
  It 
  rests 
  on 
  rocks 
  projecting 
  

   from 
  rapids, 
  or 
  on 
  the 
  banks 
  near 
  by 
  the 
  most 
  rapid 
  parts 
  of 
  streams.'^

  This 
  species 
  is 
  quite 
  abundant 
  at 
  Ithaca, 
  and 
  has 
  not 
  as 
  yet 
  been 
  

  

  reported 
  from 
  any 
  other 
  locaHty. 
  It 
  flies 
  during 
  the

  May 
  

  

  and 
  the
