The Hemiptera enumerated below with few exceptions were taken by me during my residence in that county from December, 1912, to August, 1914. A few, however, were given me by Mr. W. S. Wright and others, and two or three are from localities just outside of the county. The following notes on localities and conditions are given for the benefit of those living in the east who are not conversant with the physical conditions found there.
