beenof greater importance to me, and I have much pleasure in 

 acknowledging my obligations to the following gentlemen : — 



Mr. R. Hislop has given me information as to the Coleoptera 

 of Berwickshire, Linlithgowshire, and part of Stirlingshire. The 

 Rev. Dr. Gordon of Birnie has forwarded a list of the Coleop- 

 tera of the province of Moray, with some other information. 

 Dr. Buchanan White has sent the names of a number of species 

 occurring in the Tay district \ and also information as to a cer- 

 tain number of species from other localities. Mr. Dunsmore of 

 Paisley has furnished as complete a list as he was able to do 

 of the Coleoptera of the Clyde district. My other information 

 has been derived from captures recorded in divers repertories, 

 and from my own observations. 



Any entomologist who will forward me local lists of Coleop- 

 tera to be utilised for the subsequent portions of this catalogue, 

 will help to render the catalogue less incomplete, and will there- 

 fore greatly oblige me. 



No synonymy is given ; the nomenclature being throughout 

 that of the most recent catalogue * of British Coleoptera.
