DISTRIBUTION OF KANSAS CRAYFISHES.
BY J. ARTHUR HARRIS.
With map.
In the brief paper here presented, it is my purpose to bring up to
date my catalogue of the crayfishes of Kansas[A] by the addition of
such localities and notes as have been collected since its appearance;
to represent by means of a map the distribution by counties of the
different species, and to show, so far as is possible at the present
time, the distribution of the different species by river systems. The
distribution by river systems has been included, since I feel that a
thorough knowledge of this phase of the subject will be of interest in
the determination of the phylogenetic relationship of the different
species. Of course, any conclusions as to the distribution of the
species by water systems can be only provisional, since more systematic
collecting will surely change any such conclusions. It is my desire to
put the data available at present into such form that the addition of
new data and the deduction of more certain conclusions will be possible
with the least amount of labor.
The form of the annotated catalogue has, as far as possible, been
retained. No new species have been found in the state, and there has
been practically no new literature of a taxonomic nature since the
appearance of the catalogue. The synonomy has, therefore, been omitted.
In referring to localities reported in the previous paper I shall
designate them by numbers enclosed in parentheses, _C. virilis_, (3),
the number being that of the locality as given in that paper—the
example given being: _C. virilis_, Wabaunsee county (coll. Washb.
Coll.), J. B. Fields, coll. (Faxon, ’85, b.)
I wish to express here my gratitude to my sister, Nellie Harris,
without whose kind assistance in this and other work the appearance of
this material at the present time would have been impossible. My thanks
are also due those who have collected material in various parts of the
state.
The greater part of the material belongs to the private collection of
the writer, but is deposited at the present time in the museum of the
University of Kansas.
