there were several undescribed species which Mons. Wailly said 
were not represented in the British Museum Collections. 
Mr. Jenner Weir exhibited four bred specimens of Ant- 
lions, two of which were from Saxon Switzerland, and the 
other two from Fontainebleau. He stated that he believed 
the specimens belonged to two distinct species. Mr. M’Lachlan 
said that the specimens all belonged to one species, viz. Myr- 
meleon formicarius, Auct. = europeus, M‘Lach. 
Mr. W. C. Boyd exhibited an example of Pterophorus 
zetterstedtti, taken at Sydenham. He remarked that this 
species had hitherto only been recorded from Lynmouth and 
Folkestone. 
Mr. Enock exhibited specimens of Cecidomyia destructor 
(Hessian Fly), illustrating the life-history of the species, and 
made remarks on them. 
Mr. Wallace Kew exhibited a specimen of Dytiscus margi- 
nalis having a small bivalve shell attached to one of its legs, 
The bivalve had apparently attacked the Dytiscus and refused 
to relax its grasp. A discussion ensued, in which Dr. Sharp, 
Mr, Stainton, and Mr. Kew took part.
