the addition of a species of Panorpa from Sau Sebastian (taken en 

 route), probably new to the Spanish Fauna. 



[PANORPIDiE. 



Panorpa oermanica, L. San Sebastian, one small pale <? , approaching var. 

 apicalis, Steph. (but which has no sharply-dcfineil limitation in markings). I think 

 this may be regarded as an addition to the Iberian Fauna, the only hitherto re- 

 cognised Iberian species being the very different P. meridional is, Ramb. P. ffer- 

 maiiica has been apparently unable to cross the Pyrenees, but it has crept round 

 the lower western coast line.] 



MYRMELEONIDiE. 



Creagris plumbeus, Oliv. Bejar and Avila, many examples. 

 Macronemurus appendiculatus, Latr. Piedrahita, 2 (J , 1 ? . 



ASCALAPHID^. 



Ascalaphus longicornis, L. Bejar, 1 ? . The Spanish examples are rather 

 strongly marked, and are perhaps worthy of a racial name. 



NEMOPTERID^. 



Nemoptera bipennis, Illig. {lusitanica, Rbr.). " On the dry banks aboTC 

 some small streams close to Bejar, with an apparently slow dancing, twinkling, 

 flight in the evenings, yet with some pace, and capable of almost miraculous dis- 

 appearance if frightened." — T. A. C, in lift. 



DILARID^. 



DiLAR meridionalis, Ilag. Bejar, Piedrahita. 



HEMEROBIID^. 



Megalomus TORTRicoiDES, Rbr. (hirtus,siuct.,parlim). Bejar, 1 <? . There 

 is strong ground for believing that the smaller northern insect found in Britain, 

 Scandinavia, &c., and therefore probably the true kirtus, L., is quite distinct 

 from the larger and more southern insect to which the name tortricoides may be 

 applied. I have long had a suspicion to this effect, and Mr. Morton, who has 

 recently made a study of the subject, has practically raised this suspicion to a cer- 

 tainty. He will probably allude to the differences in a special paper ; differences 

 in the appendages of the S appear to be conclusive. 



CHRYSOPID^. 



Chrysopa FORMOSA, Brauer. Bejar, one small example. 



Chrtsopa prasina, Burm. {aspersa, Wesm.). Bejar, two examples, which 

 should probably be referred to this apparently almost protean species ; one of them 

 is very large (exp. 33 mm.). 



Chrysopa vulgaris, Schnd. Bejar and Piedrahita, apparently very common. 

 Central Spain is apparently far less rich in species of this genus than are the eastern 

 coast districts.
