Glycyphagus domesticus (de Geer), numerous specimens in a 

 box with detritus of inseets ; 11, 1900. 



Notaspis humeralis Herm. These were found in numerous spe- 

 cimens, 10, 4, 1901, under the bark of Quercus robur L. in the 

 Bürgerpark in Bremen. These mites passed the winter there. 



From the same Mr. J. D. Alfken, of Bremen, I received the 

 following Acari, caught in the Badener Berge, near Achim, near 

 Bremen. 



Thrombidium gymnopterorum (L.), 3 ex. 



Erythraeus regalis (C. L. Koch), 1 ex. 



Both were found 5, 4, 1901, under the bark of Abies excelsah. 



Trichotarsus intermedius Oudms., llOV. sp. , 5 ex., on Stelis 

 phaeoptera Kirby, a bee, living in the nests of Osmia leiana Kirby, 

 another bee, 14, 7, 1900 (see below). 



5. Acari of Dutcli Guyana. 



The species of Hyalomma, of Paramaribo, noted on p. 193 of 

 vol. 39, of the Tijdschrift voor Entomologie, is determined by 

 Prof. Neumann as Amblyomma sabanerae Stoll, 9- I* was caught 

 in 1885. 



Some years ago, say in 1895, an Amblyomma was caught on 

 a tortoise in the Zoo of Amsterdam. I received the specimen 

 from Dr. H. C. M. de Meijere. As it was determined by Prof. 

 Neumann as Amblyomma geayi Nn. cf, I presume the tick has 

 been caught on Testudo tabulata, from Paramaribo. 



6. Acari of France. 



In the Tijdschrift voor Entomologie, vol. 39, p. 137, I wrote: 



»ln January 1886 I found a Parasitus in one of the burrows 



of Limmoria lignorum and of other Crustaceans in a wooden pile, 



sent from Cherbourg, France, to Prof. Htjbrecht, Utrecht. Hitherto 



I did not find a description of this species in any work". 



I have now determined my Acarus as the male of Parasitus 

 marinus (Brady), of which I will say a few words below.
