PINGOLNSHIRE COLEOPTERE: 
BY THE 
Rev. A. Tuorney, M.A., F.L.S., F.E.S., Nottingham, and 
W. Wattace, M.B., Cu.B., Grimsby. 
The County Records of Coleoptera have been accumulating 
for many years and have now reached such a stage that we think 
their publication will prove useful and interesting. 
A glance through the following list will show what a large 
number of members have contributed towards our knowledge in 
this fascinating study. It is difficult to know whom to thank 
most, but we see the names of the Rey. E. A. Woodruffe-Peacock, 
Mr. A. Smith, and Miss Stow especially prominent in this, as in 
many other County lists. It is hoped that we shall now have 
records from some of the County divisions that have not hitherto 
been worked, and also more division-records of the so-called 
“common species’ which curiously enough are often not recorded, 
It will be seen that our list contains some of the rarest British 
beetles, but unfortunately, in some cases the records have not been 
confirmed in recent years. 
We hope to be able to publish the other sections of the — 
Coleoptera later.
