FAUNA OF NORTHUMBERLAND AND DURHAM, G1 
confounded with Javiusculum, with which it is generally 
found associated; living beneath alge, on the sea coast. 
I have taken both species freely, from Hartley to Tynemouth; 
and from South Shields to Sunderland; in especial abun- 
dance in the small indentations between Marsden and Whit- 
burn. 
8. Omalium cesum, GRAY. 
Met with at Gosforth, Long Benton, Hartley, and New- 
castle. Occurring from June to October. . 
9. Choleva grandicollis, Ericu., EK. C. Ryze, Entom Annual 
1863, p. 89. 
Not uncommon beneath dead birds, and small mammalia. 
I have generally found it to frequent dry woods. 
10. Choleva Kirbit, Spence, E. C. Ryz, Entom, Annual 1863, 
p. 90. 
With us this is more abundant, and frequents much the 
same places as the preceding. Mr. Rye has, I think, judi- 
ciously separated both from tristis. 
11. Meligethes seniculus, Er. 
The insect recorded in last year’s report, as M. tristis, 
proves to be the above, a closely allied species. 
12. Meligethes flavipes, Sturm. 
Near Hartley in October. 
13. Meligethes picipes, Sturm. 
Taken at Hartley, South Shields, and Gosforth. 
14. Cryptophaqus ajfinis, Sturm. 
I have several specimens of this, which were taken 
at Long Benton, and Newcastle, in June, July and 
August. 
15. Atomaria peltata, KRaatz. 
Rare; Gosforth, May. 
16. Atomaria Berolinensis, KRAATZ. 
Rare; Long Benton, South Shields, July. 
17. Atomaria fuscata, ScHONH. 
Also rare; Marsden, Long Benton. 
18. Atomaria munda, Enicus. 
Very rare; Gosforth, Cullercoats, September.
