Address to the Lincolnshive Naturalists’ Union. 943 
old signed letter of his to a friend, referring to a projected visit 
to the ‘‘ fumigatum locality’’ in Lincolnshire. This, we know, 
referred to the little Bembidium fumigatum, but where it is or was 
located we do not know. 
(Particulars of all these species will be found in our 
Transactions). 
Now let me refer briefly to some species still found in our 
county, and that are of special interest. Some of them are con- 
sidered rare in Britain, and indeed in a few cases they appear 
to be unique; others from their otherwise known distribution 
are unexpected in this county, ¢.g.: 
Calathus fuscus, formerly regarded as having a southern 
distribution occurs on our sandy commons and on the coast 
sandhills. Pogonus luvidipennis, of which I took seven specimens 
this year at Humberstone, all in a very restricted area of salt” 
marsh, was first found in this county at Saltfleet, in 1902, by Mr. C. 
S. Carter. This insect is almost confined to salt marshes on the 
south coast of England where it is rare. Bembidium stomotdes, 
discovered by Mr. Thornley, at Torksey, is unexpected so far 
south. Bembidinm paludosum, taken by myself at Linwood, is 
likewise a northern insect. Pelobius tavdus, seems to find its 
northern limits in our county. Jlybius subeneus, one of our 
water beetles, was a most notable capture at Holton-le-Moor, 
few instances of its occurrence in Britain being recorded. 
Ochthebius auriculatus, is a comparatively recent addition to the 
British fauna: specimens were taken at Cleethorpes by Mr. S. 
Pegler in 1896, and I have taken several since then. 
Henoticus serratus, a great rarity, one specimen of which I took 
at Roxton Wood will be included in the list in our Transactions 
dealing with the Clavicornia. Phedon concinnus found about the 
salt marshes at Cleethorpes and Humberstone, first, by Mr. A. 
Bullock, is chiefly found in Britain about the Solway Firth, 
| Longitarsus nigerrimus, Gyll. I found at Cleethorpes; it was new 
to the British list. Codiosoma spadix found at Humberstone, seems 
to be confined to the South-Eastern coasts of England. Further 
notes on all these will be found in their proper place in our 
Lists.
