ENTOMOLOGY OF EPPING. 



157 



must confess to a plentiful degree of ignorance as to names. 

 Of Lihellulites we have most of the species at all common, as 

 well as those I have mentioned above. I have only taken 

 here Sialis lutariiis, and two only of the Perlites. In the 

 Phryganites, Neuronia fusca and Phryganea grandis, which, 

 I have been told, are considered rare, are both common here, 

 €specially the former. 



The genera Cimbex, Clavellaria^ Amasis, Lophyrus, 

 Messa, Melicerta, Tarpa, and Janus, I have not found here ; 

 but of the other Tenthredinina, we have a fair proportion ; 

 some not very common species occurring, as Zarcea fasciata, 

 Hylotoma Anglica, H. ustulata, H. segmentaria, Schizo- 

 cerus pallipes, Cladius difformis, C. Geoff royi, C. pallipes, 

 Croesus septentrionalis, Selandria aim, Allantus microcepha- 

 lus, &c. Of the genus Lyda we have only L. sylvatica, the 

 larva of -which feeds in companies on the pear. Of Cephus 

 we find only C. pygmceus. Of the fossorial Hymenoptera 

 we have but ^ew species, but perhaps more than I am aware 

 of, as I have not paid to these all the attention they deserve. 

 Of the Apina, we have about, or rather more than half, the 

 British species ; amongst which are Stelis aterrima, Heriades 

 campanularum, Megachile circumcincta, and M. XaniJio- 

 melcena, Ccslionys conica, Apathus rupestris, &c. Of 

 the other Hymenoptera I can say nothing certain. Stylops 

 Dalii I have taken here, as I have before mentioned. 



I now come to the Lepidoptera ; and of the species of 

 this order which I have taken here I must give a full list, as 

 far as the Platypterycidce, and to this I shall append some 

 observations on certain species.
