JHE CJiRABIDAE OF SALISBURl 71 



Of rteiostichiis I have oulv found one si)ecies here. 

 It is closely allied to P. natalensis, Boh., and seems to 

 l>e nndesci-ibed. I have taken foni- examples at Salisbury. 



Tribe Platj/nini. 



Of ihis Tribe we have here eight species of Platynus 

 and tliree of Enleptus. The Platyni that 1 have taken 

 locally are — P. (fUvlpes, (abundant,) P. crenato-striatus 

 (rare.) P. ohlougus (1 example,) P. vertagus (rare,) P. 

 laiiuscidus (conmion at grass roots close to water,) 

 J\ alacer (fairly common,) and an nndescribed species 

 near to /'. rnfipes. P. fratermis. Per., described from a 

 Salisbury specimen, is unknown to me. 



Of Euleptus we have in this neighbourhood E. cicgans, 

 E. intcnncdius and E. cajfer. The first is scarce here, 

 the other two not uncommon. 



Tribe Pogonnii. 



The little Extromus pusillns, of which I have only one 

 example, is the solitary member of this tribe recorded 

 from Salisbury. 



Tribe Trechini, 



Trechus vivaoc is our only species, and is by no pieans 

 common in this vicinity. 



TRTr,E BeuihUlnni. 



We have here the common Benihidiiiiii rariegatum 

 and an nndescribed species of this genus, also a consider- 

 able number of Tachys, some of which seem to be new.

 m^assi ((.senilis (c(^mmon,) T. precarius, T. spurms, T. 

 crassescens, T. humeralis, T. optimus (common,) 

 T. humilis (common,) T. dehilis, T. arrogmis, T. pusil-
