RETROSPECT OK A OOI.EOPTERIST FOR 1911. 115 



by Dr. .Toy, Mr. Donisthorpe, and the author. It was confused with 

 hk-nmis, Germ., but is abundantly distinct from that species. 



(14) Bledim laetiov, Muls. and Rey, introduced by Dr. Sharp on 

 specimens found at Scarborough and at Hammersmith (loc.cit., p. 58). 

 It is superficially similar to fracticornis, Er. 



(15) Bledim secerdendus, sp. n., described by Dr. Joy {loc. cit., 

 p. 269). Dr. Joy says that this insect has hitherto been confused with 

 B. arenarius, Payk. It has been taken at Dovercourt, Dawlish, Tresco, 

 and in Ireland (Co. Kerry). 



(16) Thinobiiin bicolnr, sp. n., described by Dr. Joy {Inc. cit., p. 10) 

 on three specimens captured on the banks of the river Truim, 

 Inverness-shire, on May 1st, 1910. It is a broader insect, and has 

 longer antennsp than T. Uneans, Kr. 



(17) Lesteva liictnoso, Fauv., introduced by Mr. Donisthorpe on a 

 specimen taken in the Isle of Eigg, in moss in a waterfall, in Septem- 

 ber, 1911 {Knt. Record, vol. xxiii., p. 301). 



(18) Anisotonia ahjirica, Rye, introduced by Mr. Donisthorpe {loc. 

 cit., p. 44) on a specimen taken in a sandpit near Oxford, on July Brd, 

 1910. It was named by Dr. Fleischer. Rye described this species on 

 specimens from Algiers {Ent. Mo. Mcuj., vol. xii., p. 151). 



(19) Anisotoma {Liodes) stenocoryphe, sp. n., described by Dr. Joy 

 {FJnt. Mo. Ma;i., vol. xlvii., p. 173) from two specimens taken by Mr. 

 W. E. Sharp, at Forres, Inverness-shire, in September, 1910. Dr. 

 Fleischer was of opinion that the insect was L. calcarata, Er., var. 

 niiirescens. 



(20) Cholera fidiyinoxo, Er., introduced by Dr. Nicholson {Knt. 

 Record, vol. xxiii., p. 67) on specimens taken in dead leaves in North 

 Devon. Taken also by Mr. Dollman in moles' nests, at Harrow, and 

 by Mr. Donisthorpe at Hartlepool, in carrion. It is probably widely 

 distributed, and is confused in collections with other species. 



(21) Colon inicrops, Czwal. This species must be reintroduced into 

 our list, as Mr. Champion has taken it at Cobham, Kent {F^it. Mo. 

 Ma;/., vol. xlvii., p. 65). Dr. Joy {loc. cit., vol. xlvi., p. 268) suggested 

 that it should be deleted from the British list. 



(22) EryiV fairniairei. Reiche, introduced by Mr. Donisthorpe on 

 specimens taken in Sherw^ood Forest {F.nt. Record, vol. xxiii., p. 325). 



(23) Rhynchites hariroodi, sp. n., described by Dr. Joy {kjit. Mo. 

 Mar/., vol. xlvii., p. 270) ; hitherto confused with u)icinatiis, Th. All 

 the specimens which Dr. Joy had seen had been taken in Berkshire 

 and Hampshire. It differs from nncivatKs in having no tooth at the 

 apex of the anterior tibiae. 



(24) Barypithes diiplicatKs, sp. n., described by Mr. Keys {loc. cit., 

 p. 128). Previously it had been confused with B. pellucidHn, Boh. 



(25) Cet(thorlii/ncliusi niiilleri, Thoins. (= rntiindatiis, Bris.). Canon 

 Fowler considered this to be a doubtful species {Col. Brit, hi., vol. v., 

 p. 34-1), but Mr. J. Edwards shows {Ent. Mo. May., vol. xlvii., p. 208) 

 that it is a perfectly distinct species, and can be readily separated from 

 iiiaryiuatKs, Pk., and pnnctiyer, Gyll. 



New Varieties and Aberrations. — (1) Aniwtonia calcarata ab. 

 iiiyreacens, Pleisch., introduced by Mr. Donisthorpe on a specimen 

 swept up in Parkhurst Forest, on August 21st, 1910 [Ent. Record, vol. 

 xxiii., p. 44).
