Mr. F. W. Edwards’ Noles on British Mycetophilidae. 371 
Logie (F.J.); Kirtlng, Suffolk (G.H.V.); Brockenhurst 
(J.E.C.). 
*H, pulchella, Winn. (= inlersecta, Lundstr.). Blair- 
gowrie (A.E.J.C.); Brockenhurst (J.H.C.). 
*H. crucigera, Lundstr. Cambridge (I.J.); Newmarket 
(G-EEN'): 
*H. clypeata, Lundstr. Logie (F.J.); Musselburgh, 
Midlothian (A.E.J.C.). 
E. leptura, Mg. New Forest (D.S., F.C.A.). 
I have seen several other species which I have been unable 
to name, the hypopygia not having been figured; while 
E. lateralis, tenuicorms, dorsalis, and interrupta may be 
confirmed as British. 
Scepronra, Winn. 
*S. concolor, Winn. Logie (F.J.); New Forest (C.G.L.) ; 
Mildenhall, Tottington (G.H.V.); Lelant, Downderry 
(J.W.Y.). This species seems to occur with S. nigra, but 
is rarer. 
Epicypra, Winn. 
E. punctum, Stan. Of the 24 specimens of this species 
which I have examined, no fewer than 19 have the four 
posterior coxae blackish. The median ocellus, though very 
small and difficult to see, is always present. 
E. trinotata, Staeg. Mr. Jenkinson (Ent. Mo. Mag., 
1908, p. 131) is evidently right in his identification of this 
species. I have examined 24 specimens, and find very 
little variation. The median ocellus is much more evident 
than in HL. punctum. This species has been bred from 
limpet-like larvae found feeding on wood of a decaying 
oak, at Haslemere, Surrey, by Mr. KE. W. Swanton. 
E. scatophora, Perris. Two distinct species have ap- 
parently been confused under this name, one or both of 
which should in my opinion be transferred to Mycetophila. 
The species identified by Mr. Jenkinson is evidently the 
HK. scatophora of Winnertz, but this cannot be the true 
E. scatophora. Winnertz refers to ‘‘das kleine Afterghed 
und die kleine Zange der 3,” while Perris says the male 
armature “consiste en deux appendices linéaires, aplatis, 
velus, longs de prés de un millimétre,” and gives a figure 
which bears out this description. Strobl describes the male 
armature of H. aterrima thus : ‘‘ zwei sehr langen, lanzett- 
lichen, gelben, dicht mit langen, gekriuselten Flaumhaaren
