HBMIPTEBA-HOMOPTERA TAKEN IN THE NEW FOREST. < 



Cicadetta, Am. 



Montana, Seop. Very local. I have nothing to add to my 

 notes already published in the 'Entomologist' (xliii, p. 1, xliv, 

 p. 332, and xlvi, p. 301), excepting that Mr, Charles Gulliver tells 

 me that in 1916 he discovered a second breeding-place of the 

 species, some two miles distant from that described by me. 



Centrotus, Fab. 



Cornutus, Linn. Fairly common in May ; the nymph may 

 be beaten in September from various trees. 



Ismis, Fab. 



Coleoptratus, Geoffr. More plentiful in the old woods than in 

 the more recent enclosures, .June to September. The insect 

 usually assumes the perfect state in the early part of the former 

 month. 



Cixius, Latr. 



Piloatifi, 01. Very common in May. Var. infumatus occurs 

 plentifully, and I have also several times taken var. albicinctiis. 



NervosHs, Linn. Common, though not so plentiful as the 

 last (August and September). 



B r achy cr anus, Fieb. Taken occasionally in late autumn. 



[jihiirnia, Stal. 



Pelucida, Fab. Common. 



Fainnairei, Perris. One on September 18th, 1910. 



Strioiiia, Fieb. 

 Pteridis, Boh. Very abundant. 



Triecphora, Am. et Serv. 



Valnerata, Illeg. Somewhat scarce and local ; a few speci- 

 mens may usually be beaten in May from hawthorn bushes in 

 Stubby Copse. I am told that the species was formerly much 

 more plentiful. 



Aphrophora, Germ. 



Alni, Fall Abundant on various trees and shrubs, particu- 

 larlv Mf/rica gale. 



Salicis, De G. Common, though far less so than the last. 



Philcenns, Stal. 



Spiimariiis, Linn. This very abundant insect does not appear 

 to vary so much as in other districts. On August 31st, 1910, I 

 swept a very pretty form from blossoming ling. In this speci- 

 men the head and prothorax are pink, the elytra being of the 

 same colour with two black blotches on the costa. Mr. E. A. 

 Butler, who has seen the insect, tells me the form is new to him. 



Liiieatus, Linn. Very plentiful in the bogs.
