34 NOTES ON BRITISH TRICHOPTERA, 



dark fuscous ; exp. alar. 6.J lines. A single specimen of this 

 was taken at Taunton, in 1859, by Mr. Parfiit. Though 

 I have called this new to Britain, it is scarcely so, for Fabri- 

 cius, in the " Entomoloojica Systematica," mves "in Ano-lia" 

 as the sole locality ; however, it does not seem to have been 

 met with again until now, as the interruptus of Donovan 

 and Stephens is L. alhifrons. It occurs in Austria, Russia, 

 and elsewhere on the Continent ; but as the list of localities 

 given by Kolenati applies in part to alhifrons, it is impos- 

 sible to say how many of them are correct. 



Glossosoma fimhriata, Stephens, I met with at Bickleigh, 

 near Plymouth, in September. This is probably a small form 

 of Boltoni, Curtis. 



Chimarrha margijiata, L., has been taken at the same 

 place by Messrs. Reading and Parfitt. 



Polycentropus himarnlatus, L., has been taken by myself 

 and Mr. Wormald at Willesden commonly, and by Mr. Bar- 

 rett near Dublin.
