S. incisilohata is not rare in Denmark; Amager, Ordrup Mose, 

 Dyrehaven, Geel Skov, Egebæks Vang, Bidstrup Hegn, Jyderup 

 and in Jutland at Høruphav, Skanderborg, Frijsenborg, Skørping 

 and Frederikshavn; the dates are ^^j^ — ^^/g. It has been recorded as 

 bred from Oryct.es nasicornis, but this probably refers to another 

 species {melanura). 



Geographical distribution: — All Europe. 



Remarks: As striata Fabr. is another species = haematodes Meig., 

 the present species must bear the name incisilohata Pand. Though 

 Meigen states that he had seen the type of Fabricius, he must never- 

 theless have failed in the recognition. — Zetterstedt records vagans 

 from Denmark; in Stæger's collection are two males so named, one 

 is the present species, the other crassimargo.
