176 ENTOMOLOGICAL NOTES, ETC. 



7. Stenus unicolor (Kirby), Steph. Very distinct from hrun- 



nipes, with which it has generally been mixed. I have taken 

 specimens at Kenton and at Tynemouth. 



8. Lathrimceum unicolor^ Marsh. Mixed up in our cabinets 



with atrvcephalum, from which, however, it is abundantly 

 distinct; being larger, more punctured, and of one uniform 

 colour. It is quite as common, and frequents the same 

 places as its congener. 



9. Proteinus ovalis (Kirby), Steph. Taken amongst vege- 



table refuse, near the Abbey Mills, Morpeth, in October. 



10. Agatliidium nigripenne^ Fab. Met w4th, in some x^lenty, 



beneath the bark of a felled tree at Gosforth, in April. 



11. Agathidium Icevigatunij Erich. Very rare. Northum- 

 berland, 



12. Agathidium mandibulare, Sturm. Also very rare. 



13. Agathidium nigrinum, Sturm. Gosforth, in fungi, but 

 very rare. October. 



14. Clambus minutus, Sturm. Very rare; Ouseburn Dene. I 

 took several specimens, last May, in Cumberland, only a 

 little over our boundary line. 



15. Saprinus rugifrons^ Payk. Plentiful on the sands at South 



Shields, in July. 



16. Aphodius tjistis, Panz. A single specimen taken on the 



sands, near South Shields, by Mr. J. Thornhill. 



17. Notoxus rnonocerus, Linn. I caught a specimen of this 

 extraordinary beetle on the sea-banks near Tynemouth, 

 in July. Mr. Wailes has since told me that he had 

 taken it, many years ago, near the well at the south end 

 of Cullercoats' sands.
