180 Lincolnshive Coleoptera.

QUEDIUS LATERALIS, Gr. 
N. 4, Roxton Wood, one specimen, 8-10-08, WW. The fact of 
our having only one record for so conspicuous a species 
indicates its rarity in this as in other counties. 
QUEDIUS MESOMELINUS, Marsh. 
Occasional, but widely distributed.

Britain until March, 1906, when it was discovered by Dr. N. 
H. Joy at Bradfield, near Reading, Berkshire, and since 
then has turned up widely in England (see E M M.)

A common species and no doubt widely distributed.

hog in numbers, 29-8-07, W W. River Freshney flood refuse, 
12-9-08 in large numbers, W W. Croxby, 11-9-08, W W. 
Cleethorpes, 16-5-08, W W.
