120 ANNALS OF SCOTTISH NATURAL HISTORY 



The insect ranged in that district from the level of the river (200 

 ft.) up to above the village (say over 600 ft.), and it usually appeared 

 about the beginning of May, occurring throughout that month. I 

 have one example, in fair condition, bearing the date of yth June.

Note on Agriotypus armatus, Curtis. This curious parasite of 

 the larvae of Trichoptera (caddis-worms) was recalled to my mind 

 not long ago by an application for specimens made by Mr. Claud 

 Morley of Ipswich. It is considered a rare insect ; why, I do not 

 know. A good many years ago I found it at Loch Ard in Perth- 

 shire (" Ent. Monthly Mag." vol. xxx. p. 62), and afterwards I used 

 to meet with it not rarely near my old home at Carluke, not very many 

 miles distant from the original habitat (for the insect was described 

 by Curtis from specimens received from Henry Walker of New 

 Lanark). And I think also it came before me last spring when I 

 was hunting for Perlidce on the Pentlands ; but as Mr. Morley's wants 

 were not then known to me, the examples were not taken. K. J. 

 MORTON, Edinburgh. 



Scottish Myriapoda. Referring to my note in the " Annals " 

 for 1900, p. 127, Mr. Pocock reports that among some further 

 specimens of Myriapods submitted to him by me, he finds the 

 following species, which I do not see mentioned in Gibson-Car- 

 michael's list : 



lulus britannicus, VerhoefT. One, among withered leaves in a 

 wood near Port Seton, November 1900. 



/. pilosus, Newp. Swanston, Pathhead, Pettycur, Callander. 



Blaniulus fuscus, Stein. Mortonhall and Roslin, under bark on 

 rotten trees, March 1900. 



Lithobius calcaratus, C. Koch. Bavelaw, Kirknewton, Callander. 



L. crassipes, L. Koch. Mortonhall and Pentland Hills. 



Geophilus proximus, C. Koch. Lothianburn and Aberdour. 



G. carpophagous, Leach. Callander. This is probably the 

 G. sodalis of the list above referred to. 



Schetidyla nemorensis (C. Koch). Mortonhall, March i 900. 



In addition to the examples of Craspedosoma rawlinsii mentioned 

 in my former note, I have taken single specimens at Braendam near 

 Callander (April 1900), and at Cartland Craigs, Lanarkshire (October 

 1900). WILLIAM EVANS, Edinburgh. 



Triehoniseus roseus (Koch} in Linlithgowshire. On 23rd 

 March I discovered a small colony of this brightly coloured Wood- 

 louse among some stones and cinders on a bank close to South 

 Queensferry. It is an addition to Mr. T. Scott's list of the Land 

 and Freshwater Crustacea of the district around Edinburgh.

Clavella labraeis, Van Beneden, a Copepod new to Britain. 

 The parasitic Copepod, which is now added to the British fauna, was
