The seven species not marked as now first introduced are all recent dis- 

 coveries in this country (except, indeed, Badister peltatus, which, under the 

 name of Trimorphus erro, was first described by Mr. Newman in the Ent. 

 Mag., and was inserted by Mr. Stephens in his Manual). Calathus rubi- 

 gena was discovered by Mr. Haliday on several of the Irish mountains, 

 which seem at present to have monopolized the honour, as no English or 

 Scotch locality is assigned to it by Mr. Dawson. Anchomenus quadripunc- 

 tatus was taken at Long Benton, in Northumberland, by Mr. Bold, of 

 Newcastle-on-Tyne. Trechus incitis, a pair were captured by the author 

 at Whittlesea Mere, in July, 1847. T. lapidosus (of which Blemus pal- 

 lidus of Stephens is counted a var.) is reported very local ; Ventnor, South 

 Shields, Berwick-upon-Tweed, being the only English localities mentioned; 

 while Mr. Haliday has again the honour of having discovered it in Ireland, 

 on the shore at Holywood, and Mr. Hogan of taking it near Dublin. 



Bembidium Clarkii was first discovered by the author, in 

 1848, in marshes, near Dorchester; it was taken, in the same locality, in 

 1852, and also on the shore of Pegwell Bay, near Eamsgate, on each occa- 

 sion by the same gentleman. Bembidium Schuppelii, " two examples were 

 taken, first by Messrs. 5old and Murray, on the banks of the Irthing, near 

 Naworth Castle, Cumberland ; and subsequently about a dozen more by 

 Mr. Wailes, in the same locality. It has been taken occasionally also near 

 Edinburgh." Of the species now first introduced, Dyschirius impuncti- 

 pennis, was taken by the author near Weymouth. D. jejunus (an entirely 

 new species, unknown on the Continent), was discovered by Mr. Bold, near 

 Lanercost Abbey, on a sandy beach by the Irthing, in June. Harpalus 

 melancholic us was captured near Swansea, in 1845, by Mr. Wollaston. 

 Stenolophus elegans was taken in the Isle of Sheppy, in May, 1853, by 

 the Rev. H. Clarke. Bembidium obliquum was taken by Mr. Bold, at 

 Gorforth. B. stomoides was discovered also by Mr. Bold, between Laner- 

 cost Abbey and Naworth Castle, in June, 1848. B. Jluviatile, a fine 

 series, were captured by Mr. Hadfield, on the banks of the Trent, at Kel- 

 ham. B. callosum was taken by Mr. Stewart, on Woking Common, in 

 1851. 



Besides these species, of all of which entire figures are given, the follow- 

 ing are recorded as now first introduced: — Harpalus sulphuripes, " now, 

 for the first time introduced into the British Fauna, on the authority of an 

 example taken near Bristol, which perfectly corresponds with specimens 

 received from Paris. One of the insects, standing under the name servus 

 in the Stephensian Cabinet, appears to correspond with this species." 

 Harpalus Wollastoni — " Four or five examples of this species were cap-
