The Scottish Naturalist. ii 



tbe opportunity of forming it, I am indebted to the collections of Drs. 

 Buchanan White and vSharp, which they have had the goodness to lend me 

 for examination. Among the species have occurred a number new to the 

 British fauna — Cinibex femorata Fab. Tiichiosoma lucorum L. ; T. 

 vitellinic L. ; T. sorbi Htg. Ahia sericea L. Hylotoma ustiilaia L. 

 Lophyrus pini L. ; L. pallipcs Fall. ; Cladius difforviis Pz. ; C. padi L. 

 Caviponiscus luridiventris Fall. Dincura De-Gceri Kl. ; D. testaccipes Kl. 

 Crasus septentrionalis L. ; C. varus D. V. ; Neinatus crassus Fall. ; N. 

 riijiconiis var. fraxini H., and var. appendicidatus H. ; N. abbreviahis 

 Htg. ; A^. ptinciictps, Thompson, Hymen., Scand. , i. 92, 14. I am in 

 doubts of this being the correct species, if that be even anything else than a var. 

 of ruficornis ; N. alnivorus Cam. ; N. pallipes Fall. ; N. sp. , a i very like 

 pallipes has been taken by Dr. Buchanan White, which will I think turn 

 out to be a new species, but the males do not afford good specific characters ; 

 N. mollis H. ; N". interstitialis Cam. was either taken in Braemar, or in 

 Rannoch ; the specimen upon which the species was founded had turned 

 mouldy, and it was unpinned and carded, and unfortunately the locality was 

 then not noted. N. ambiguus Fall, was I think taken in Braemar, but I 

 am not sure, the specimen being at present on the continent ; N. obductus 

 H. ; iV. capreoe Pz. {Kirbyi "W^oxca) ; PI. piindatiis Dbm. ; N. hyperboreus 

 Thorns. ; N. bilincata Kl. ; N. abdoininalis Pz. ; N. luleus Pz. ; N. 

 dorsatiis Cam. ; N. melanocephalus H. ; A"", myosotidis F. ; N. Zetterstedti

Notes on Scotch Hymenoptera.— ^<^^^^/^^v^<? velox F., var. mgrolineaia 

 Cam. I propose to call by this name a variety of T. velox, which differs 

 from the type in having the femora and four anterior tibire black on the 

 upper surface in the female, just as they are coloured in the males. It is 

 curious that this variety occurs in the same locality as the type. 



Andricus oestivalis Gir. — This species, which I recorded doubtfully as a 

 British insect in the "Entomologists' Monthly Magazine" for March, 1876, 

 on the authority of a specimen taken at Ardlui, may now be added with- 

 out any doubt to our lists, as the specimen in question agrees perfectly with 

 a bred type of A. aestivalis which I received from Dr. Mayr, of Vienna.
