324 Mr. K. J. Morton's Further Notes on 



A. pallidula, McL. 



In the above-mentioned collection from Finland, there 

 was a single ^ which I determined as palHdula with some 

 hesitation. Recently, however, Herr Silfvenius has sent 

 nymphs in which the $ appendages are fully mature, and 

 these confirm, beyond all question, the existence of this 

 interesting species in Finland. 



AllotricJiia pallicornis, Eaton. 



In addition to the localities recorded by McLachlan, 

 Klapalek adds Bohemia and Bosnia. It has also been 

 taken by Eaton in Algeria. In our own Islands it swarms 

 on the river Clyde at Uddingston near Glasgow. 



Hydro'ptila sparsa, Curt. 



The examples from Portugal referred here by McLachlan 

 with some doubt prove to be a good new species. H. 

 sparsa is, however, quite likely to prove a native of the 

 Iberian peninsula, as it is found at Pavia in Italy {Ris) 

 and in Algeria {Eaton). 



H. campanulata, IVIort. 



A near ally of H. sparsa taken by Eaton in Algeria, and 

 described by me in E. M. M., 2nd Ser., vol. vii, p. 103. 



Hydroptila cintrana, n. sp. 



The pubescence of tlie fore- wings is brownish (no doubt black 

 when fresh) with white markings, of which the principal are two 

 oblique bands somewhat interrupted ; there is also a noticeable dark 

 apical spot margined internally with white. 



The outer margin of the dorsal plate of the ^ is slightly upturned ; 

 in the dry insect the plate becomes retracted going towards the base, 

 the large side flaps of the plate falling inwards towards the chitinous 

 lines which seem to form the supporting framework of the plate 

 when this is viewed from above : the conformation of the angles of 

 the outer margin and of the apex of the flaps from the vertical view 

 gives the impression of acute points in the preparation from which 

 the figures are made, but this is probably exaggerated. The distal 

 portion of the inferior appendages is slender ; these appendages are 

 divergent, slightly hooked at the apex which is piceous ; there is 

 also a piceous wart before the middle of the appendage.
