Taken by Dr. Power, near Hammersmith Bridge, in March and 
May. This is the species of which, in the " British Hemiptcra," p. 534, 
we stated that Dr. Power had taken two specimens which in some 
respects differed from S. elegantula. Dr. Power having captured more 
examples, we were convinced it was distinct, and proposed to describe 
it under the name of S.'pulcJira; but Dr. Eieber, having seen two 
specimens, thinks it is probably S. Flori of Dohrn, and although there 
are slight diiferences between his description and our examples, we 
conclude that they are not sufficient to establish a new species.
