Baldernock as late as the 18th September. Other localities 

 are Clober, Fintry (Stirlingshire), and Tarbert (Lochfyne). 

 This is the only representative of the large genus Limnobia 

 which w^e have obtained so far. 



Dicranomyia chorea, Mg. — Apparently common and well dis- 

 tributed, but we obtained no specimens after the middle 

 of July. Earliest record 3rd June, at Cadder Wilderness. 

 Flies about trees and bushes after the manner of the gnats. 

 Other localities are Steps Moss, Milngavie, and Kirn. 



D. stigmatica, Mg. — Has the same habit, and frequents the same 

 localities as the last ; is probably as common. Steps Moss, 

 7tli June ; Milngavie and Kirn. 



D. lutea, Mg. — A single specimen was taken by sweeping on 

 Inchmurrin on 19 th June. 



D. dumetorum, Mg. — Several examples of this species were ob- 

 tained on Inchmurrin on the same date. They frequented 

 the same sheep-house as Limnobia nubeculosa. Not obtained 

 elsewhere. 



D. didyma, Mg. — On the 18th September several specimens 

 were swept from the overhanging vegetation at the Linn of 

 Baldernock. 



Goniomyia tenella, Mg. — Inchmurrinj 19th June. Several 

 specimens. 



Molophilus a2:>pendiculatus, Staeg. — One taken on Inchmurrin, 

 19th June, by Mr. Henderson. 



if. p)'>^opinquus, Egg. — This is probably the commonest species 

 of the genus in the district ; but curiously enough only one 

 specimen has been preserved, taken at the Linn of Balder- 

 nock on the 6th June. 



M. hifilatuSy Yer. — Inchmurrin, 19th June. It is with con- 

 siderable hesitation that any of the species of Molophilus 

 are inserted in the list, as the identification rests on points 

 always difficult of investigation. We have taken Molophili 

 in every locality we have yet visited. 



Hhypholophus nodulosus, Mcq. — This is an early species, but is 

 well distributed, though by no means common. First taken 

 by sweeping at Mollinburn on the 30th June. Other 

 localities are Inchmurrin, 19th June; Clober, 27th June. 

 Kot seen after the end of June.
