The large amount of rotten wood, trees, and posts account in great measure 

 for the fact that Crabro and Prosopis are so well represented, the sedge Fen 

 itself being unproductive, compared with the portions near Burwell I'en. 



The following Chrysids were also caught at Wicken : Ellampus auratus, 

 acncus, Chrysis cyanea, pustulosa, ruddii, and ignita, a\\ iaivly common. Chrysis 

 fulgida occurred in some numbers in June, 1906, Mr. Le Marchant, the late 

 Mr. Chitty, and myself securing over 20 specimens of this beautiful and rare 

 species. — E. B. Nevinson, Morland, Cobham : March 16th, 1916. 



Additional localities for some recently recognised Homoptera. — On Aug. 23rd, 

 1912, I captured a very distinct looking Typhloctjba from sycamore, at Great 

 Salkeld, Cumberland, but as the specimen was a female, I did not think it wise 

 to endeavour to get it identified until a male had been obtained. In 1915 

 Mr. Bagnall's example of T. callosa Then,* also a female, was handed to me 

 and it was at once recognised as the species captured by myself in 1912. 

 Whilst examining the Typhlocybas in the Hope Collection, I came across 

 another female of it, ex coll. E. Saunders, mixed with gratiosa Boh., this 

 example having been captured at Margate in October, 1904. Amongst some 

 Psyllopsis fraxini L., obtained by beating ash saplings at Thame Park, Oxon, 

 on August 6th, 1915, there were one male and two females of P. discrepans Flor, 

 and no doubt had the latter been recognised in the field I could have obtained 

 it in numbers, as Psyllopsids were in abundance in the wood. There is also 

 a nice male of this species amongst P. fraxini L., in the Hope Collection, 

 ex coll. E. Saimders, from Woking, but with no date. I am indebted to 

 Professor Poulton for allowing me to include these records from the Hope 

 Collection. — H. Bkitten, Myrtle View, Windmill Eoad, Headington, Oxon : 

 March 9th, 1916.
