REPORT ON THE COLEOPTERA OBSERVED IN 

 CLEVELAND. 



By M. Lawson Thompson, f.e.s. 



The following report on Beetles occurring in the Cleve- 

 land District consists chiefly of records made in the early 

 part of last century by the late Rev. G. T. Rudd, m.a., and 

 L. Rudd. Many of them may be found published in Stephens' 

 "Manual of British Coleoptera (1839)." G. T. Rudd was 

 Vicar of Sockburn and resided for a number of years at 

 Worsall Hall, near Yarm. He died in London on March 

 4th, 1847, at the age of 52. He appears to have been a 

 regular . correspondent of Stephens, as may be seen by a 

 reference both to the ' ' Manual ' ' and the ' ' Illustrations 

 of British Entomology" (Coleoptera) (1828). 



The remaining notes refer to my own earlier observations, 

 and those of my friend, the Rev. W. C. Hey, m.a., of West 

 Ay ton, near Scarborough, who has visited Redcar and 

 Coatham marshes in former years.
