Afthecerus longulus, Wesm. 
Wesm., Tent. 206, 6; Brischke, D. Ichn. d. Prov. 
W. u. E. Preus. 25. 
I took in June, what I believe to be, a female of this 
species; it differs from Wesmael’s description only in 
having a fuscous spot on each side of the three red 
abdominal segments. Brischke mentions a specimen 
having a black band on the 4th segment. 
Taken at Norwich.
