W. Va. (2,000 ft.) ; in North CaroUna, Magnetic City, (3,000 ft.)- The 
only Canadian station is St. David's, Quebec. The increased elevations 
in stations southward are interesting, and to be expected. 
19. Ophiogomphus anomalus, eastern, spring. This species has only been 
taken elsewhere in Canada in Quebec and Ontario. 
20. Ophiogomphus carolus, eastern, spring. Only one station south of New 
England is known for this species, — Ithaca (814 ft.), New York. In 
Canada it has been taken in Ontario. 
21. Ophiogomphus mainensis, eastern. This species has not been recorded 
from outside New England. Dr. Muttkowski's Massachasetts record 
cannot be traced. The elevation of the New Hampshire station is l,600feet. 
22. Gomphus borealls, eastern, spring. South of New England it has been 
taken at Saranac Inn (1,622 ft.), New York; and at Magnetic City (3,000 
ft.). North Carolina. The Ontario, Canada, record was an error. 
23. Gomphus scudderi, eastern, summer. Outside New England it has been 
recorded from Saranac Inn (1,622 ft.), New York, and Oden (606 ft., 
Lat. 45.5° N.), Michigan. It has also been taken in Ontario. 
24. Boyeria grafiana, eastern, summer. North of New England known from 
Quebec and Ontario in Canada, it has been recorded in the United States 
outside New England from Old Forge (1,500 ft.), New York; from Ohio 
Pyle (1,224 ft.), Pennsylvania; from Orwell (800 ft.), Ohio; and doubt- 
fully from Cave Branch (650 ft.), Kentucky. 
25. Somatochlora kennedyi, eastern, spring. Outside New England it is 
known only from Quebec and Ontario in Canada, and from the Ministiqua 
River (750 ft., Lat. 46.5° N.), Michigan. 
26. Somatochlora williamsoni, eastern, spring. Outside New England, and 
south of Canada where it is known from Quebec and Ontario, it has been 
taken at Saranac Inn (1,622 ft.). New York, and at Oden (606 ft., Lat. 
45.5° N.) Michigan. 
The following eleven eastern species which rarely inhabit eleva- 
tions over 1500 to 1900 feet, have a more extended range than the 
last over the low country even to sea level. Not infrequently these 
species reach the cranberry bogs of the pine-barren region (Lat. 
40° N.) of New Jersey. This region is one characterized appar- 
ently by several unquestionably boreal species, e.g., Libellula quadri- 
maculata. Many of them reach Maryland and stations away from 
the coast in Virginia, North Carolina, and to Kentucky- and Ten- 
nessee. Like the last, though boreal in habitat, they have been called 
transitional. Though it may be entirely erroneous to consider 
these and the following species (Nos. 27-55) as boreal, a mere 
arbitrary division at best, yet environmentally and physiouraphi- 
eally, they are distinctly boreal rather than austral, though alti- 
tudinally and latitutlinally, not typically so. None has ever been
