[Odonata-l] Enallagma traviatum question -- any takers?

[Tim Allison]

Hey, all...
Caught a couple of bluets this morning...mainly, they look like traviatum (which is new for me in Lancaster County)-- the cerci are branched, with the ventral branch short and straight, and the dorsal branch long and arching, but the dark spot on seg. 8 is distinctly triangular -- almost equilateral -- rather than T-shaped, as described by Lam.  I suspect that this is just an example of regional variation, but wanted to see what y'all had to say.
Thanks,
Tim

When I retired in May 2005, I gave away or destroyed most of my library and reprints.  But there were a few items I couldn't bear to part with at that time.  I recently donated my early issues of Odonatologica to the Sherrod Library at ETSU, so they have a complete set if anyone needs to access it through Inter-Library Loan.
 
The attached document lists several items that I am now ready to give away to a good home.  If you see anything on the list that you woud find useful, please contact me directly at my home e-mail:  karollynnanddan at comcast.net.  Tell me what you want, and why it would be useful--in case there are competing claims that I need to adjudicate!
 
As I say farewell to my professional career, and turn my attention to other pursuits, I want to thank the many members of the extended odonate family who made my study of larval odonate ecology so rewarding. Having turned in my keys at ETSU, it will not be long before they cease supporting my e-mail there.  Any of you who would like to keep in touch should take note of the home e-mail above and below. 
 
Good luck with your continuing efforts to comprehend the mysteries of odonatology!
