river valleys and other topographic features. If only the northern 
series of records were taken into consideration, it might be thought 
to follow the principal railway lines of this portion of the state, but, 
moreover, several important railways pass thru counties that are 
not included among these records. It seems that the advance and 
dissemination of the species is due mainly to natural flight and its 
progress eastward may be expected to follow this method. It will 
be interesting to watch for the eastward extension of its present 
margin of distribution. During the summer of 1914, no records 
for the species were made in the state; if the insect is present during 
the coming summer, we will be glad to receive such records.
