Neurodipsis parvula Banks 
This species, originally described from Maryland, has 
subsequently been found in northern New York. Two speci- 
mens were collected in 1930 : one male at Andrews, N. Caro- 
lina, Aug. 23 ; and one near the French Broad River, Ten- 
nessee, 6 miles west of the N. Carolina state line, Aug. 28.

Figure 6. 
This species has been taken commonly from the District

southern states ; two specimens were collected in Nantahala 
Gorge, N. Carolina, Aug. 25.

Philopotamus distinctus Walker 
Fifteen specimens were taken in the Smoky Mt. and 
Black Mt. region: Bryson City, Andrews, Linville, Mar- 
shall and Black Mt., all N. Carolina; and Newfound Gap, 
Smoky Mts., Tennessee, during late August and early Sep- 
tember. 
LEPTOCERIDyE 
Mystacides nigra Linn. 
One male was taken at Andrews, N. Carolina, Aug. 25,

been recorded from most of the northern states and Canada, 
but I have not seen any specimens previously collected south 
of the District of Columbia and vicinity. It is interesting 
that no specimens were secured in the Black Mts. or Smoky
