TALITRUS LOCUSTA.

the Belfast Museum. We have noticed it on the south- 

 ern shores of England and Wales. Milne-Edwards states 

 that it is very common upon the north and west coasts 

 of France. M. Guerin Meneville has received it from 

 the shores of Greece ; Risso took it at Nice, and Lucas 

 in Algeria. So that it will be important to record upon 

 what sandy shores it is not to be found. It does not 

 occur in Greenland, being omitted by Kroyer, nor does 

 it appear in the work of Bruzelius on the Scandinavian 

 species published at Lund in 1859. 



The accompanying vignette of Whitsand Bay, near 

 Plymouth, is from the talented pencil of our friend Mr. 

 Philip Mitchell, of the New Water Colour Society.
