AN ADDITION TO THE LIST OF BRITISH EEMIPTERA. 

 BY EDWARD SAUNDERS, E.L.S. 



Lopus suLCATUs, Eieb., Eur. Hem., 268, 4. 

 Black ; a spot on each side of the head near the eye j dorsal line and the sides 

 of the thorax in front, the centre of the seutellum, the sides of the corium in front, 

 and the cuneus (except at the apex), pale ochreous, the latter suffused with orange 

 colour outwardly ; membrane, in developed specimens, black. 



Easily distinguished from our other species by the following cha- 

 racters : from gothlcus by the shorter pubescence, in the absence of 

 the long hairs on the thighs and antennae, the narrower form, the 

 thorax constricted in front and its sides more sinuate, by the sulcate 

 seutellum, as well as by the pale (not red) cuneus and seutellum : 

 from mat, Rossi, by the pilose elytra, the constricted thorax (which 

 has the sides only pale in front), the sulcate seutellum, and the thighs 

 without pale bands. Long. 2J — 3 lines. 



Portsmouth (Moncreaff), also at Slapton. 



I have had a bad example of this species in my collection for some 

 time, but have not hitherto brought it forward, not feeling sure that 

 it was the true L. sulcutus ; but lately I have had an opportunity of 

 seeing Dr. Eieber's type in M. Lethierry's collection, and am satisfied 

 that (Hir insect belongs to his species. It has been found by INIr. Mon- 

 creaif at Portsmouth, both in the developed form with the entire 

 membrane, and also without. I have found the species not rarely on 

 the Continent near Tours.
