New BRITISH SPECIES, ETC., IN 1861-62. 77 



Giving all praise to the good work done by Messrs. 

 Murray, Hardy and Bold, I must remark that the above 

 statement affords a clue to the reason of divers other species 

 recorded bv them havins: been omitted in Waterhouse's 

 Cataloo-ue. 



34. HoMALOTA SUBTERRAXEA, Mulsant, Opusc. Entom. ii. 



40,4; Kraatz, Ins. Deutschl. ii. 291, 99; G. R. 



Waterhouse, Proc. Ent. Soc. 1 Sept. 1862, Zool. 



8219 (1862). 

 Comes next after H. hospita, Wat. Cat. This species was 

 originally introduced into the Catalogue on the authority of 

 a specimen captured by Mr. E. W. Janson, and recorded in 

 the Proc. Ent. Soc. 2 July, 1860, Zool. 7152 (1860), Ent. 

 Ann. 1861, p. 61, which insect, that gentleman subsequently 

 says (Proc. Ent. Soc. 4 Nov. 1861, Zool. 7861, 1862), 

 appears to coincide, as stated by Mr. Waterhouse, with 

 //. scapularis, Sahib., a species already included in our lists. 

 Prior to the last-mentioned date, viz., in Proc. Ent. Soc. 

 7 Oct. 1861, Zbol. 7808 (1861), Mr. Waterhouse withdrew 

 H. subterranea, Muls., from his Catalogue, but it must now 

 be returned, the true species of that name having been dis- 

 covered by him among some insects taken by Mr. Morris 

 Young, of Paisley, to whose indefatigable exertions British 

 Entomology is much indebted. 



35. HoMALOTA INTERMEDIA, Thomson, Ofvcrs. af Kon. 



Vet. Acad. Forh. (1850), 145, 58; Kraatz, Ins. 

 Deutschl. ii. 301, 11; G. R. Waterhouse, Proc. Ent. 

 Soc. 1 Sep. 1862, Zool. 8219 (1862). 

 Taken by Dr. Power at Purley Downs. Comes next after 

 H. suhrufjosa, Wat. Cat.
