114 COLEOPTERA. 



L^MOPHL^us DUPLiCATUS, Waltl. Taken by my 

 friend Mr. G. Lewis at Farnborough very plentifully ; also 

 by myself at Coombe Wood. 



L^MOPHL^us BIMACULATUS, Payk. Taken in some 

 numbers by the indefatif]^able Messrs. Scott and Douo^las, 

 under bark of hornbeam, Hainault. 



Mycetophagus fopuli, Fab. Found in profusion in 

 the rotten black interior of an old elm by Mr. W. Leedes 

 Fox of Harleston, Norfolk, to whose liberality all collec- 

 tions possessing this rare species are indebted. 



Helophorus intermedius, Muls. This insect re- 

 sembles a small example of aquaticus more than miMlus. I 

 found it last year at Walton-on-the Naze. 



Megapenthes lugens, W. Redt. A single specimen 

 of this species (apparently equally rare on the Continent) was 

 taken by my friend Mr. H. Montague, under elm bark in 

 his garden at Stockwell ; the same garden has produced also 

 Ischnudes sanguinicollisy Eryx atra and XT/loj^hihis poj^ul- 

 neiis. 



Dictyopterus mixutus, Fab. This rarity has suddenly 

 occurred at two distant places. Taken at Mickleham in last 

 September by Dr. Power, afterwards by myself at the same 

 place, by sweeping under fir trees. About the same time it 

 was also taken by Mr. Saunders, jun., at Bristol in some 

 numbers, on a felled tree. 



Tetratoma Desmarestii, Latr. Taken by Mr. H. S. 

 Gorham at Coombe Wood ; by Mr. A. Matthews in Lei- 

 cestershire, Mr. Leedes Fox in Norfolk, and Turner in the 

 New Forest. 



Tropideres niveirostris. Fab. Messrs. Douglas and 

 Scott each took a specimen of this rarity on the 8th June 

 last, by beating dry sticks near the Fox, Darenth. 



Ceuthorhynchus viduatus, Gyll. Taken by Mr.
