Brockenhiirst and Lyudluirst Road on May 27tli and 28th, 1910. 

 Even if it should turn out that CE. apicalis is only a variety of 

 (E. cedalina, it will still be new to Britain. 



31. Trichina opaca, Lw. : I am obliged to refer a male caught 

 by Col. Yerbury at Nairn on May 27th, 1905, to this species. I had 

 taken a similar specimen in Wicken Fen on May 13th, 1892. Seven 

 males taken by Col. Yerbury at Mildenhall on May 14.th, 1909, are 

 probably the same species, but they have the thorax rather less dull. 



32. LeptojM'za g-phenoptera, Lw. : Not luicommon at Porthcawl 

 and Stokenchurch, while I have taken it at Ivybridge and at Exeter as 

 far back as July, 1871. 



33. Clinocera wesmaelii, Macq. : Dr. J. H. Wood took this species 

 at " Churchyard Dingle " on July 6th, 1907 ; it is very much like 

 C. fomtinalis, bvit has an extra spot on the end portion of the discal 

 vein, and has the radial vein rather undulated. 



34. Ardoptera oceUata, Costa: There cannot be the slightest 

 doubt that a gummed specimen given me in 1869 by the late Mr. J. C. 

 Dale, and labelled " Isle of Wight," belongs to this species ; Dale 

 called it A. guttata, but that is a very distinct species which Dale, 

 according to his collection, knew as A. oblongoguttata, n. sp. 



35. Tachista ttiberculata, Lw. : An expedition to the Monnow 

 Eiver in Herefordshire, under the guidance of Dr. J. H. Wood, on 

 July 10th, 1909, enabled me to add three females of this species to my 

 collection. Dr. Wood writes me that he has also taken it (including 

 one male) from the Monnow, and also one female from Howie Hill in 

 the extreme south-east corner of Herefordshire. 



36. Psilopus loewi, Beck. (P.flexus, Lw., 1869) : On August 28th, 

 1907, 1 caught a male of this very little known species at Scotland Fen, 

 Boyton, Sviffolk, and in July, 1908, I found it there in considerable 

 numbers, while I have also seen it from the New Forest. In spite of 

 what Strobl has said, it is a perfectly distinct species, which is very 

 much like P. wiedemanni, from which it is distinguished by the 

 absence of any lobe on the front tarsi of the male, and by the only 

 slightly dilated fifth joint. The female may be distinguished from 

 P. wiedemanni by the more distinctly banded abdomen, and from 

 P. contristans by the narrower frons and by the hind tibiae having only 

 one ant ero- dorsal bristle. 



37. Bolichopus cilifemoratus, Macq. : A little known, but perfectly 

 distinct species, very closely allied to D. festivus; the three middle
