9. Calvert, Ent. News, 1903, p. 36, records fasciata for 
Lucaston, New Jersey, June 22, July 2, 1900-2, collected by E. 
Daecke. 
I 1 10. In Ent. News, 1907, p. 456, Mr. Laurent’s capture of 
fasciata at Malaga, New Jersey, July 20, is recorded, 
p J 11. Muttkowski, Bull. Wis. Nat. Hist. Soc., Vol. 6, 1908, 
p. 108, describes fasciata and records it from Milwaukee County, 
Wisconsin. 
Celithemis fasciata Kirby. 
Trans. Zool. Soc. Lond., XII, 1889, p. 326, pi. LII, fig. 2. 
As above stated Hagen’s reference to fasciata from Florida 
probably refers to this species. In Ent. News, 1906, p. 84. 
C. S. Brimley records fasciata from Lake Ellis, North Carolina, 
June 22nd. This probably refers to true fasciata. 
Soon after beginning this study I wrote to Mr. Dury about 
his Cincinnati record. He sent me a water color sketch of his 
specimen, taken in 1895. It is certainly monomelaena. It was 
taken at a small lake in Spring Grove Cemetery. Several were 
seen but only one was captured and he has not seen the species 
since. He does not know who is responsible for determining his 
specimen as fasciata, but I recall from conversations with Profes- 
sor Kellicott that he was not the authority, and my Indiana 
specimens were named fasciata for me by Kellicott after he or 
Hine had seen Dury’s specimen bearing this label. 
Dury’s experience with the species at Cincinnati is similar 
to mine in Wells County. It was taken at Frantz Fishpond (a 
deserted gravel pit) in 1898 and again in 1901, but I have 
been unable to find it there since. I have not seen the species 
alive since 1904 when it was taken in Steuben County, Indiana. 
My thanks are due Professor Hine for delegating to me this 
work in an order of insects in which he himself is greatly inter- 
ested. Professor J. B. Parker has on this occasion, as on others, 
given me the benefit of his knowledge of Greek, and the specific 
name monomelaena is of his compounding. The photographs 
of wings, from which the plates have been made, were taken by 
Professor Newton Miller, Clark College. 
The types of monomelaena are a male and female, Whitley 
County, Indiana, in my collection. 
Bluffton, Indiana.
