Text Appearing Before Image:
Dobsons belong to the family of Sialiadae, and include the Fish-flies, Hellgramites, Alder-flies and others of diverse popular names. They have four thin, broad, net-veined wings which are folded when at rest. All are weak flyers with legs scarcely able to support the body. The mouthparts are developed for biting, the abdomen long and slender, the antennae long, the head broad with protruding eyes, and the mandibles well developed. Of the Fish-flies or Sialis there are but two species, S. infumata and S. americana, both small insects which frequent vegetation on the banks of streams. The eggs are laid in white cottony masses on plants overhang-ing the water, on bridges, piers, etc., into which the larvae drop when hatched.
The largest species of Dobson is the Horned Corydalis, C. corinita, which has a spread of wings of over five inches and is quite generally distributed.
