Not illustrated. 1909 Excerpt: ..."Lake Superior" (p. 61) written in July, 1850, by J. Elliot Cabot, who prepared the narrative of the Agassiz tour. "Neither the love of the picturesque, however, nor the interests of science, could tempt us into the woods, so terrible were the black-flies. This pest of flies, which all the way hither had confined our ramblings on shore pretty closely to the rocks and the beach, and had been growing constantly worse and worse, here reached its climax. Although detained nearly two days, we could only sit with folded hands, or employ ourselves in arranging specimens, and such other occupations as could be pursued in camp, and under the protection of a 'smudge.'

The species of that region are S. venttstum (Figs. 16-22, pp. 45-46) and S. vittatum (Figs. 23-25, p. 47), both common in central and northern Illinois. These northern species are also referred to by Dr. A. S. Packard in his book on "Our Common Insects," published in 1873. "The Labrador fisherman," he says, "spends his summer on the sea shore, scarcely daring to penetrate the interior on account of the swarms of these flies. During a summer residence on this coast, we sailed up the Esquimaux River for six or eight miles, spending a few hours at a house situated on the bank. The day was warm and but little wind blowing, and the ...
