JONE - From Jamie Cromartie, in an e-mail dated 17 June 2002 to Steve Hall:
"I just noticed that your records for Bladen give the species as "historical". I thought I reported a pair I found at Jones Lake on 28 June 1994, 1420 hrs at the boat launch area lawn, pair in copula. Haven't seen it on subsequent visits, I plan to turn the specimens over to NCSU, but they got a bit damaged."
from Harry LeGrand
P.S. He is a professor(?) at Stockton State U. in NJ. E-mail in 2002 was jamie.cromartie@stockton.edu |
