4« THE entomologist's RECORD. 



of our species. In the $ and ^ the epinotum is not armed with 

 spines, and the club of the antennas is five-jointed. Emery''-^ gives for 

 its distribution the mountains of the temperate zone of the Pah^arctic 

 Region from the Alps to East Siberia ; also in the Appenines and in 

 Asia ]\Iinor and the Caucasus. It has never been found in the British 

 Isles, but it is possible that it may have occurred here formei'ly, since 

 Wheeler"' suggests it was the original host of the small ant Fortnuoxenna 

 uitiiliilKs, and that the latter only later became associated with Formica 

 riifa. FoniricoxcnKH is widely distributed in Britain, and often abun- 

 dant in F. Til fa nests. 



I am indebted to Mr. E. A. Elliot for the translation from the 

 Danish, to Mr. Hugh Main for the photograph of the ergatandromorph 

 of M. scabrinoilis, and to Mr. Hereward Dollman for the drawings of 

 the wing, and the antennae. The drawings of the latter are intended 

 more to emphasise the important points of the different species, than 

 to represent an exact model of the antennae. It must be remembered 

 that from different points of view, the antenntB present quite different 

 appearances. I also wish to express my thanks to the following- 

 gentlemen who have kindly given me specimens, or have sent me 

 specimens to examine and name, or have supplied me with localities : —
