Since the writer's report on “The Subarctic Odonata of North America” was published, several collections have been received from localities included within the territory covered in that paper, which add materially to our knowledge of the dragonfly fauna of the Hudsonian Zone on this Continent. Most of these collections are from the Northwest Territories but a few are from northern Alberta and Newfoundland.

A new ostracode assemblage, DFr6, characterizes the uppermost Frasnian rock sequences in western Canada. The assemblage or biozone contains elements of both the Frasnian and Famennian ostracode sequences and seems to be intermediate between both faunas, which in main aspects are strikingly different in composition. Similarities between the Devonian ostracodes of western Canada and their time-equivalent faunas of the Russian Platform and adjoining areas suggest the presence of a vast paleobiogeographic faunal province that is distinctly set apart from a "paleo-Tethyan" province whose ostracode representatives are found in central Europe and North Africa.The lower DFr6 subassemblage is contained in the Jean-Marie Member of the Redknife Formation, with the upper DFr6 ostracodes occurring in its upper member and in the Kakisa Formation. Both formations form prominent but lithologically similar carbonate sequences in the southwestern corner of the Northwest Territories and adjoining areas, causing problems in correlations, in particular in subsurface studies. Ostracodes of the upper DFr6 subzone were also recovered from the dolomites of the Winterburn Group of northern Alberta.

We present the first documented records of Deepwater Sculpin, Myoxocephalus thompsonii, from northern Alberta, and the second record for the province. Three specimens of Deepwater Sculpin were taken in gill nets set at 17 to 20 m depth in Colin Lake, Alberta, on 15 September 2001. Colin Lake, located in the Canadian Shield region of northeastern Alberta about 125 km northeast of Fort Chipewyan, drains into Lake Athabasca via the Colin River. The only other known Alberta population of Deepwater Sculpin inhabits Upper Waterton Lake in the southwestern corner of the province. This record is approximately 300 km SSE of the nearest verified record in the Northwest Territories and 400 km NW of the nearest verified record in Saskatchewan.
