four joints reddish-yellow ; other joints black above, reddish-yellow below. Head 

 wider than thorax, large, rather shining, punctured, more closely about the eyes. 

 Thorax shining, finely punctured ; notauli marked in front ; mctathorax arched 

 from base, rugose, with a distinct area. Wings hyaline; stigma, radius and sub- 

 costa brown, costa lighter, other nervures pale. Coxae dark, rest, of legs pale yellowish, 

 except apices of all the tarsi, lower part of the thickness of the front and inter- 

 mediate femora ; hind femora, except knees, and the hind tarsi, a little darker than 

 the others. 



I took the type of this species while collecting with Mr. E. Geo. 

 Ellirnan, of The Broadway, Chesham, Bucks , in honour of whom and 

 his very excellent work among the Micro-Coleoptera I have named it. 

 It was captured on June 17th, 1906 ; Mr. Claude Morley took a 

 second specimen in Marvell Copse, near Newport, in the Isle of 

 Wight, on June 25th, 1907. 



Antjeon breviventralis, sp. n. 

 J . Go to No. 18 of Kieffer's table. Metalhoras gradually sloping. Head 

 shining, distinctly punctured, large. Abdomen only a little longer than the ineta- 

 thorax. Scape a little shorter than joints two and three ; antennae reaching beyond 

 end of petiole. Apex of mandibles with four teeth. Mesonotum shining, less 

 strongly punctured than the head ; notauli distinct in the front half. Wings not 

 quite clear hyaline ; stigma, costa, subcosta and radius brown, other nervures pale 

 and little visible. Legs black or dark brown, with apices of front femora whitish ; 

 front tibioe and tarsi light testaceous; intermediate knees and base of ti bios, and 

 tarsi testaceous ; base of hind femora pale testaceous. 



The only specimen I have seen of this species was captured by 

 me at Walmer on June 24-th , 1904. 



Ant-Sion sttffolciensis, sp. n. 



$ . Go to No. 25 of Kieffer's table, but hind tibia? dark ; then include : Head 

 dull and shagreened (or very finely punctured), traces of notauli, antennae as there 

 described under A. neglectus, Kieff., but third joint a little shorter proportionately 

 to the others and about twice as long as thick. Mesonotum shining, punctured ; 

 metathorax and wings as in A. dorsalis, but stigma and tegulae reddy-brown and 

 radius almost pale. Coxee and trochanters black ; front legs dark testaceous, 

 femora darker except at apices ; middle legs as the front ones, but darker through- 

 out ; hind legs almost black. 



This description is drawn from two specimens in Mr. Morley 's 

 collection, which were in all probability captured in Suffolk. [Unfor- 

 tunately the two examples here referred to were taken by Mr. Albert 

 Piffard at Pelden, near Boxmoor, in Herts. — C M.] 



Anmon morleyi, sp. 11. 

 $. Follow Kieffer to No. 32. Head distinctly punctured, more closely in 

 front, shining. Pronotum closely and almost rugosely punctured ; mesonotum
