﻿For the present, tlierefore, I shall give sections for the British 

 species contained in my cabinet.

6. hirtus Curt. Brif.Etif. pi. 693.—sa\u\U)r Ha/in.j>L 76../! 236.? 

 Whether Hahn's figiu'e be intended lor my insect I cannot 



determine, for he has not indicated the yellow hairs upon it ; 

 the hinder thighs are mucii thicker than in my specimens, the 

 tibi.c are entirely ochreous, and the tarsi are very short. 



1 took 3 specimens off grass in dry meadows near ISandwicli, 

 the middle of last Auf^ust. 



7. marginatus Curt. 



Olive-black, with short ochreous pubescence; head and tho- 

 rax shining, the former ochreous at the base; elytra with a 

 broad ochreous space at the base and a narrow n^.argin, 

 sometimes all round, of the same colour: abdomen black: 

 hinder legs very long and the thighs very thick ; legs ochre- 

 ous, thighs black, the tips and anterior tibia; ferruginous: 

 1 line long. 



Not uncommon on the sand hills at Lowestoft the beginning 

 of June. It resembles the Cimcx grijlloides Liini. in colour, 

 but it is much smaller, and the antemuv are quite dillerent. 



8. ochrijies Curt. — ambulans? Ilahn. 108. 337. pu)ia of ?. 

 tShining black, legs pale yellow, tijis of tarsi fuscous : 1 line

I took a single specimen during my last visit to the Western 

 Isles of Scolhnid.

 the Isle ot" Wight, communicated by Dr. Bromfield.
