Abstract

Thirty-one species of aquatic beetles, representing the families Dytiscidae, Hydrophilidae, Haliplidae, and Gyrinidae, were collected in the Miller Blue Hole, a large spring, between October 21, 1967, and January 27, 1969. The numbers of each species collected are tabulated by monthly intervals. Some of the species present in this unusual habitat are rare; Tropisternus columbianus is apparently recorded from Ohio for the first time.
