1886.] 201 



I caught 19 specimens last June at Lyndhurst, Freshwater, and 

 Lymington, at the last place it was exceedingly abundant. 



33. Idioptera pulchella, Mg. : numerous specimens of both sexes 

 in June, 1872, near Lyndhurst. Walker's L.fasciata, L., is probably 

 this, but he does not mention the short wings of the female. 



34. Taclnjrrliina giiesffalica, Westh. : this recently described 

 species is abundant in my garden, while its ally, P. cornicina, occurs 

 in the neighbourhood, though not in the garden. 



35. P. maculosa, Mg. : common by roadsides about here in June, 

 also about Lymington and Lyndhurst. Walker has mixed up this 

 species and P. histrio under Tipula flavescens. 



36. Tipula scripta, Mg. : in June at Bonchurch, Lynton, and 

 Boxhill ; it is undoubtedly Walker's T. excim, Schum., but Schummel's 

 species has never been clearly recognised. 



37. T. confusa, Van d. Wulp : abundant on fir trees at Barton in 

 September last ; this species was only described in 1883. 



38. T. marmorata, Mg. : I believe several old specimens which I 

 possess from British collections belong to this species. It is given as 

 British by Stephens, but of course at that time T. confusa was not 

 distinguished. 



39. T. ohsoleta, Mg. : Lewes in October, also in old collections. 



40. T. vittata, Mg. : I have an old specimen which I have no 

 doubt is British. It is included in Stephens' Catalogue. 



41. Tacliygaster tarsalis, Ztt, : I possess a female of this, which 

 was in the late Mr. Wilson Saunders' collection. 



42. Odontomyia angulata, Pz. : a female which I caught at Tud- 

 denham on July 20th, 1880, I can only refer to this species. 



43. Clirysops quadraius, Mg. : this makes a third British Ghrysops, 

 all are very closely allied yet truly distinct ; the female may be readily 

 distinguished by the almost isolated black dot on the luteous base of 

 the abdomen. I have specimens from Lyndhurst, Bournemouth, 

 Wicken, and Abbots Wood in Sussex. 



44. Tahanus grcecus, F. : in the late Mr. Wilson Saunders' British 

 collection was a female of this ; I would not introduce the species as 

 British, but for the fact that it is widely spread, and has occurre(i as 

 close as France. 



45. Scenopinus glahrifrons, Mg. : Mr. H. T. Stainton once gave 

 me a female of this. I do not know its history.
