DISCOVERED SINCE KIRBY'S MOXOGRAPHIA. 95 



M. armata of Panzer; a reference to Panzer's figure shows 

 this to be the case, but it is placed beyond a doubt by Dr. 

 Nylander, who has seen the typical specimen. 

 Genus Ceratina. 



56. Ceratina albilabris. Fab. (Smith, Zoologist, vii. App. 

 57) ; in the collection of the British Museum, taken in 

 Devonshire by Dr. Leach. 



Genus Bombus. 



57. Bombus Lapponicus, Fab. This beautiful species 

 (which I described in the Zoologist, vii. App. 59, as B. 

 monticola), was first discovered in Wales, by Mr. Newman ; 

 it was next met with on Halifax Moor, Yorkshire, and sub- 

 sequently in Herefordshire and Monmouthshire, and also in 

 Perthshire, Scotland. 



58. B. Collhius, Smith (Zoologist, ii. 548) ; only the male 

 and worker are at present known ; the male has occurred at 

 Westow, Yorkshire; near Bristol ; on the Brighton Downs, 

 and in Cumberland. 



59. B. S?nithianus, White (Proceedings Linn. Soc. 1851, 

 Ann. and Mag. Nat. Hist. x. New Series, p. 294) ; the 

 Bombus arcticus of Dahlbom, but not of Kirby ; this in- 

 teresting addition to our Bombi was made by Mr. A. White, 

 in 1850 ; he captured it in Shetland ; it has not occurred in 

 any other locality. 



From the foregoing list, it appears that fifty-nine species 

 of Bees have been added to the British list since 1802; and 

 when we take into consideration that upwards of fifty of the 

 species of the Jlojwgraphia have been united to their part- 

 ners, therebv reducing the number described as distinct from 

 221 to 170, it will be seen that a considerable advance has 

 been made in this branch of Entomological science. The 

 present number of species of British Bees will be about the 

 same as Mr. Kirby enumerated, certainly not more than ten
