Quite a number of species of Cockroaches have occurred in Britain 

 casually. Those mentioned below probably do not exhaust the list. 

 It is quite possible that in some cases the identification is not 

 absolutely reliable. 



Nyctibora holosericea, Kl. — One taken at Covent Garden, July 

 6th, 1897, figured in "Entom.," 1900, p. 3. Probably an immature 

 specimen of the same species, brought to Mr. W. Daws of Mansfield, 

 April, 1908. One captured at Kew, June, 1904. One from Ship 

 Canal, Manchester, exhibited at Lanes, and Ches. Ent. Soc, March 

 19th, 1906. 



Nyctibora brunnea, Thunb. — From Bradford Market, Yorkshire 

 (" Naturalist," March, 1909, p. 113). 



Blat&a melanocephala, ? . — Exhibited at Entom. Soc. Lond., 

 April 5th, 1869, as having been found destructive in orchid-houses 

 in this country ("Ent. Mo. Mag.," 1869, p. 302) [ = ? L. snrinawensis, 

 W.J.L.] . 



Stylopyga decorata, Brunner. — One, Worksop, March 20th, 

 1902. One, Nat. Hist. Museum, November 16th, 1907— so named 

 by Kirby ; but Burr calls it Dorylea rlwmhifolia (see " Proc. Ent. 

 Soc. Lend.," November 20th, 1907). 



Rhyparobia mtideraB, Fabr.— This species often occurs, but 

 always casually. There is no suspicion of its becoming naturahsed. 

 Captures have been too frequent to enumerate. 



Blabera gigantea, Linn.- — This very large cockroach, called the 

 "Drummer" in the VVest Indies, has been taken in Liverpool Docks 

 (" Entom," 1899, p. 139), West India Docks (" Entom," 1896, p. 

 161), and at Bradford in Yorkshire (" Naturalist," 1897, p. 26). 



Blabera cubensis, S.— Two at Oxford, August 16th, 1906, and 

 September 2nd, 1906 (A. H. Hamm). 



Panchlora exoleta, Klug. — Three mstances have been noted: — 

 one at Coalville, Leicestershire, June, 1902 ; one at Maxwelltown, 

 Dumfries, 1902 ; and at Mansfield, Notts, October 25th, 1906. 



Panchlora nivea, Linn. ( = P. virescens, Thunb.). — (1) Liver- 

 pool, exhibited at Lanes, and Ches. Ent, Soc, March 21st, 1904; 

 (2) Leyland, exhibited at Lanes, and Ches. Ent. Soc., October 17th, 

 1904. (3) Manchester, from bananas, one in November and one in

 ber 21st, 1905. (5) Warrington, Lancashire. (6) Hoylake, Cheshire, 

 August 9th, 1906. (7) Warrington, November, 1907. (8) One 

 exhibited at Entom. Soc. Lond., May 6th, 1908 (the last probably). 



Panchlora viridis, Fabr. — Liverpool, exhibited at Lanes, and 

 Ches. Ent. Soc, March 2 1st, 1904 ; occasionally imported mto Edin- 

 burgh (Evans); Romsey, May 3rd, 1901. (Of the last two the identi- 

 fication was somewhat uncertain.)
