Cryptophagus distinguendics, Sturm. — I took one example 

 amongst refuse on the margin of a pond at Bishopton in 

 March, 1900. 



Phyllotreta sinuata, Steph. — Mr. Dalglish obtained this species 

 by sweeping at Luss in June, 1900. 



Crepidodera aurata, Marsh, — One example was swept by Mr. 

 Dalglish at Bonhill, in July, 1900. 



Rhynchites nanus, Payk. — Murray, in his "Catalogue of the 

 Coleoptera of Scotland," gave Penmanshiel Wood, Berwick- 

 shire, and Ptaehills as localities for this species, and the 

 late Mr. Robert Hislop also recorded it from the outskirts 

 of Forres {Entomologist's Monthly Magazine, vii. (1870-71), 

 11); but Dr. Sharp placed it within square bi'ackets in 

 his list, and stated that he had never seen a Scottish 

 individual of the species, and that he thought it very pro- 

 bable that the specimens should rather be referred to 

 R. uncinatus, Thoms. Examples of R. nanus, which have 

 been examined by the Rev. Alfred Thornley, were taken 

 last summer by Mr. Eden near Paisley, and by Mr. 

 Dalglish at Bishopton. 



Balaninus villosus, F. — One specimen of this fine weevil was 

 taken by the Rev. Mr. Somerville on the north side of the 

 Holy Loch in 1860.
