232 [March, 
It appears from Mr. Waterhonse'a note-book that he long ago named this 
species in MS., provisionally, " Kraatzii." 
3. Stenus 20 sp. — ? Cat. p. 28. This, in tlia appendix, p. 108, is named S. 
lustrator, Er., Kraatz (Ent. Ann., 1863, p. 85). 
4. Bledius 5 sp. — ? Cat., p. 108 (and Pocket Cat., p. 7). This is to stand in 
the place of the B. pallipes, Grav., of the Catalogue. It is represented in Mr. 
Waterhouse's cabinet by three specimens : I, also, have it from the Lancashire 
coast. B. pallipes, compared with B. opacus (teste Erichson), should have longer 
and more densely punctured elytra ; — a character not exhibited by Mr. Waterhouse's 
insects, or mine. Bledius pallipes, Gr., is included, with a query, in the 2nd Edn. 
of Mr. Crotch's Cat. ; and is, I presume, intended to represent this species. 
5. Ancyrophoeus 2 nov. sp. ? Cat., p. 30. This, at p. 108, and in the Pocket 
Cat., p. 13, is named A. longipemnis, Fairm. (Ent. Ann., 1863, p. 87). 
6. Omalium 14 nov. sp. ? Cat., p. 31, and Pocket Cat., p. 13. This has been 
determined by Mr. G. R. Crotch as DeUphrum creyiatum, Grav. (Omalnim) ; vide 
Ent. Ann., 1867, p. 68. It appears (as Mr. Crotch says) to have no generic 
characters in common with our only other Deliphrum. 
7. Omalium 16 yiov. sp. ? Cat., p. 32, and Pocket Cat., p. 13. This is repre- 
sented by a single specimen in Mr. Waterhouse's collection, which is named in his 
note-book " 0. hrevicorne, Er. ?," and which is, in my opinion, only a deceptive 
0. vile. 0. hrevicorne has been recorded as British by the Rev. A. Matthews 
(Ent. Ann., 1864, p. 63). 
8. Anisotoma 13 sp. — .'' Cat., p. 35, and Pocket Cat., p. 14. I have identi- 
fied this insect (vol. i. of this publication, p. 167) with the A. ornata of Fairmaire, 
which appears to be a pale form of the A. litura. of Stephens. Vide Ent., 
Annuals for 1865, p. 65 ; 1866, p. 78 ; and 1867, p. 111. 
It seems, also, to be the A. scita, of the 1st Edn. of Mr. G. R. Crotch's Cat. 
(nee Erichson). 
9. Meligethes 6 nov. sp. ? Cat., p. 38, and Pocket Cat., p. 15. This insect 
occurs abundantly on Cruciferous plants at Southend. It most resembles M. 
coracinus, but has the punctuation less fine, the legs brighter coloured, and the 
antennae entirely pale. It is in the same section (that with simple tibiae") as ]!£. 
ceneiis ; fi*om which common species it may be known by its usually smaller size, 
its clear rufous legs and antenna9, duller and non-metaUic colour, closer punctua- 
tion, and more evident pubescence. 
10. Cryptophagus 16 — ,sp.? Cat., p. 41. and Pocket Cat., p. 17. This is 
the insect described by me as C. Waterhousei at p, 101 of the present vol. Vide 
Ent. Ann., 1867, p. 51 (fig., frontisp.). 
11. Atomaria sp. — ? Pocket Cat., p. 17. I have identified this insect with 
the A. Barani of Ch. Brisout (p. 156 of vol. ii. of this publication : and Ent. Ann., 
1866, p. 86). 
12. Hydr.^sna 2 nov. sp. ? Cat., p. 44, and Pocket Cat., p. 18. This has 
been referred by Mr. G. R. Crotch (vide Ent. Ann. 1867, p. 77) to the H. palustris
