186 THE entomologist's record. 



referring to Mr. Holland's capture of specimens of Cleonin sidcirostris 

 of a reddish colour which were found on the red sands of Boar's Hill, 

 I mentioned that I thought I had found a parallel case in Limobins 

 )iii.rtHs of Avhich I had taken two speennens of a white colour among 

 the white pebbles on the Chesil Beach, its normal colour when found 

 amongst sand at Deal, etc., being yellow. I mentioned that further 

 specimens were required to prove the case. These have now been 

 taken by Mr. Forsyth, of Weymouth. I also stated ray opinion that 

 many such cases would be found when looked for. I see that Mr. 

 Morley in the Ent. Mo. Man., 1896, p. 91, recorded a case in point of 

 a llypera jtiiiictata he captured in a sand-pit, its colour being the exact 

 counterpart of its surroundings. — Horace Donisthorpe, F.Z.S., 58,

CoLEOPTERA OF GLAMORGANSHIRE. — Your reference (antca, p. 140), 

 to the lack of Glamorganshire lists, leads me to say that I have been 

 collecting material for one of the coleoptera for some years. I ceased 

 to reside in the county two years ago, and am beginning to think of 

 putting my notes togethei-. I know of only one or two collectors who 

 have recorded anything from tlie county. Perhaps a request in the 

 Ent. lii'coni for any records of Glamorganshire beetles will lead to a 

 useful correspondence with other workers and to references to published 

 notes. Of course there is Dillwyn's Swansea list to work on. —
