are of a delicate sea-green instead of the more yellow colour of the preceding species ; 

 the stature is also smaller, and the tarsi are pale in both sexes. The species was 

 abundant on the balm-plants, above mentioned, from August to October. 



Eupteryx vittatus and E.pictus also occurred on the same plants, but not many 

 of either. 



Trioza galii, Foerst. — I find, that in some of the examples captured in August 

 {vide p. 92 ante), the white markings on the abdomen have now disappeared, but in 

 others they remain. I think that those authors who have not adverted to the white 

 markings must have had before them examples in which the markings had become 

 evanescent by lapse of time. 



AphaJara exilis, Weber and Mohr. — On the 14tli October I found several indi- 

 viduals of each sex, the male predominating, in tufts of grass growing by the road-side 

 at the Addington Hills. I had previously sought on the heather in vain. The species 

 has been found on fir and other trees, but, as far as I am aware, the food-plant is 

 not known. 



Aphalara polygoni, Foerst. — On the 2nd September, on a plant of Polygonum 

 hydropiper, I found two examples, $ and $ , so flaccid and colourless that they could 

 not have emerged from the pupa-state for more than a few minutes. On the 28th 

 Sept., on the same plant, I found several individuals fully developed and coloured. 

 On previous occasions I have taken the species in autumn on fir trees, and, in June, 

 on Rumex acetosella, on which last it was also found by HaUday ; but it was originally 

 discovered by Foerster on Polygonum. 



Rhinocola aceris, JAn. — I saw a few soft, newly emerged individuals on Acer 

 campestre, at Lee, on August 1st ; these, I think, were of a second brood, the first 

 appearing in June, but the occurrence of two broods has not been recorded. — J. W.

Morayshire Hemiptera. — The following species of Heteroptera I have added to 

 the list published in 1877 (Fnt. Mo. Mag., xiv, 165). 



MicropJiysa pselaphiformis. 



Conostethus brevis. Renter. — In profusion, on thrift and Carices; Bay of Find- 

 horn, 17th June and afterwards. 



Plesiocoris rugicollis. — I have found, this season, in profusion, on hoary sallow 

 and Myrica gale. 



Salda lateralis, Kinloss. 



Agalliastes saltitans, at Findhorn. 



AgaUiastes WilJcinsoni, Dictyonota strichnocera, Phytocoris dimidiatus ; Burgie 

 and Pluscardeu. 



Berytus pygmceus. 



Dicyphus staehydis, Eeuter, =; collaris, Flor ; in profusion on StacJiys. This is 

 the species I gave in my last list, in error, as D. errans. 



Oerris odontogaster. Loch Romach. 



The following Somoptera have occurred here during the past season, and have 

 been named for me by the kindness of Messrs. Douglas and Scott.
