Mr. W. H. B. Fletcher bred the female of this species 

 from Padisca solandriana. These Scotch specimens differ 

 slightly from Wesmael's and Holmgren's descriptions : 

 the}^ both give the hind femora as nigro-piceous ; in my 

 specimens the hind femora are dark red, one of them is 

 fuscous in the middle, the abdomen of one has the apex 

 of the 1st segment and all the rest of the abdomen 

 palish chestnut ; the other two have the same coloured 

 abdomen, but the segments have a more or less distinct 

 fuscous band in the middle. All three vary in this 

 respect, so that perhaps the described coloration may 

 occur in this country. The above were taken at 

 Eannoch.

Head behind the eyes somewhat swollen ; supero-medial area 

 about as broad as long or longer than broad, and sometimes broader 

 than long, and varies from hexagonal to almost pentagonal with a 

 blmit apex ; -in the female the metathorax is rngosely punctate, in 

 the male shining and somewhat coarsely rugose, much finer in 

 some specimens than in others ; the post-petiole in the male is sub- 

 globose, longer than wide, and narrower than the female ; in both 

 aciculate, distinctly but rather irregular in the male, almost obso- 

 lete in the female, especially in the middle ; remaining segments 

 finely granular, with indications of rather coarse somewhat scat- 

 tered punctures ; punctures a little finer in the female than in the 

 male ; 2nd segment longer than wide, remainder transverse ; meso- 

 pleura smooth and shining, with coarse not very close punctures. 



(J . In coloration agrees with the female, except that the hind 

 knees, apex of tibia), and tarsi of hind legs are fuscous, and the 

 abdomen varies in colour from deep brown ; incisions of anterior 

 segments reddish, to 2nd and 3rd segments almost entirely dull
