MARITIME COLEOPTERA 513 
numbers at Wivelscombe Creek, June, 1915, and on the shore at 
Bere Ferrers, June, 1916, by sweeping sedges, etc. As both of these 
localities would be covered with salt water for a brief period at spring- 
tides, and as there are as yet no other records of the capture oi this 
species in Cornwall or Devon, its habit with us seems to render its 
inclusion in our list desirable. 
+CoprosoMA spApIx Herbst. Batten, in an old wooden pile on the 
shore, May, 1892; South Down, in old piles stuck into the mud 
flats, larvee and perfect insects in numbers, May, 1909. 
Nore.—In July, 1917, amongst a considerable quantity of beetles 
collected at random, by my friend Mr. N. Micklewood, in the Lizard 
district, where he was spending a holiday, and given to me, I 
detected an example of a Cathormiocerus which will probably prove 
to be new to Britain. The species cannot unfortunately at present 
be determined, but the insect has been submitted to Mr. G. C. 
Champion, who observed, “It is certainly a Cathormiocerus. . . . 
It seems to come nearest to curvisc.ipus Seidl. The thorax is 
abnormally shaped and vestiture (except setae) abraded, so I doubt 
if vou will make much of it.” Further examples of the Weevil are 
therefore desirable.
