XXV. Supplementary Note to a Paper entitled Hymenoptera 

 aculeata, eollected by the Rev, Alfred E. Eaton, 

 M.A., in Madeira and Tenerife, in the spring of 

 1902. By Edwaud Saunders, F.R.S., F.L.8. 



[PvCcad November 18th, 1903.] 



I REGRET to say that when I wrote the above paper I 

 entirely overlooked an article by Professor Perez of 

 Bordeaux, published in the Annales de la Societd Ent. 

 de France for 1894, in which he describes the new species 

 of Hymenoptera taken in the "Voyage de M. Ch. AUuaud 

 aux lies Canaries." — In this article I find the species 

 which I have described under the name of Fodalirius 

 canariends described as Anthoplwra alluaudi, to which of 

 course ccmariensis must sink as a synonym. 



It is curious that Professor Perez and myself should have 

 made almost identical remarks about the black variety of 

 Bomhus terrestris with the white tail, both suggesting 

 that it probably represents what Brulk' quotes as JJ. 

 soroensis. I can only apologize to Professor Perez for 

 unwittingly appropriating his observation. 



It may be worth mentioning that Alluaudi, Per., is 

 omitted by Friese in his monograph of the Genus 

 Fodaliriics 1897.
