H lo/igior, Rey. Forth, Stirling, Polmont (Power); Clyde, 

 Lanark, Glasgow (Power), Newbery (1). Mr Newbery points 

 out that it is doubtful whether H. angustata, Stm., occurs

 standing under that name in the Power Collection are 

 referable to H. longior, Rey. H. angustata was recorded 

 in Dr Sharp's "Coleoptera of Scotland" from Tweed and 

 Solway.
