PACHYTA SEZMACULATA, Linn., &c., AT NETHY BRIDGE, 

 INVERNESS-SHIRE. 



BY G. C. CHAMPION, F. Z. S. 



My friend Col. Terbury has been kind enougb to collect a few 

 Coleoptera and Remiptera for me during the past summer in the north 

 of Scotland. The three places visited were Nethy Bridge, Inverness- 

 shire, June 11th to July 11th ; Invershin, Sutherlandshire, July 13th 

 to July 20th ; and Golspie, Sutherlandshire, July 20th to August 26th. 

 His captures include several rarities, and as I do not remember having 

 seen any records from these localities, a list of the species obtained 

 is given below, omitting only the commonest forms. The most inter- 

 esting find is Facliyfa sexmaculata, Linn., of which he caught a single 

 female specimen at Nethy Bridge ; it will be remembered that this 

 species was introduced as British by myself in 1877 (Ent. Mo. Mag., 

 xiv, p. 92), upon the authority of two examples from Aviemore, a few 

 miles higher up the Spey Valley. The other species are : —
