Libellulim. 
The four species of this family recorded by Hagen as occurring in Madeira 
(Ent. M. Mag. ii. pp. 26-27) are all common in Europe, namely, lAhelhda 
rubella (Pv\AXe)—fo7iscolo7nhii (Ramb.), L. sti'iolata (Charp.), Anax foxmiosa 
(Van der, L.) and Agrion pimiilio (Charp.). Hagen remarks that the insect 
recorded by Brulle as Libellula oly^npia (^ = c<xrulescens, S^lys) is probably 
L. chrysostigma (Burm.). The Gomphus taken in Madeira by Hartung is 
probably G. simillimus. 
Brauer (Verb, zool.-bot. Ges. in Wien, xv. pp. 1013-1014) describes 
females of Lih. pruinosa (Burm.) and Etiphcea sqdendens (Hag.). The latter is 
particularly interesting, as only males were known of all the species in the 
group to which it belongs. 
Caspary records (Schr. phys.-bkon. Ges. zu Kbnigsb. 6. Bericht, p. 13) that 
before the breaking of a storm in Kbnigsberg in the middle of the day on 
16th June 1864, a swarm of Lihellulce passed over the zoological garden there 
for about ten minutes. It was so dense as almost to darken the air. The 
species was said by Hagen to be Libellula A-maculata. 
M^Lachlan notices the occurrence of AEsclma borealis (Zett.) at Bannoch 
in Perthshire, and discusses its characters. He also mentions a few other 
species taken in the same locality. Ent, M, Mag. ii. pp. 117-118, and
