432 Mr. Claude Morley on the 



London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Isles of Wight and 

 Purbeck, Cornwall (Cremyl, Newbery). Also from 

 Bucarest. It is said to have been bred from such 

 varied hosts as Adimonia rustica, Tortrices, Syrphus 

 baltcatns and S. pinastri (= ? corolhv); — cf. also 

 En torn., 1884, p. 167. 



B. multicolor, Grav. (13.) Very local but common where it 

 occurs, in marshes, June ; Horning Ferry in Norfolk 

 and Tnddenham Fen in Suffolk ; Sussex, Surrey. 

 [= dclctus, Thorns, $ $.] 



H. cinctus, Grav. (18.) Uncommon in woods in May and 

 June, also found in autumn; Lines., Herts., Suffolk, 

 Surrey. [= lateralis, Grav. = albicinctus, Desv., £ ; 

 var. = scabriculus, Holmgr.] 



H. bizonarius, Grav. (15.) By no means common, June to 

 September ; Herts., Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex ; ap- 

 parently commoner in Surrey. Also from Nantes. 

 [= cingulatus, Holmgr. = ? frontalis, Brisch. This 

 species greatly resembles Bassus multicolor superfici- 

 ally in its more or less distinct tranverse segmental 

 impressions, entirely white scutellum and usually 

 brightly cinctured central segments ; the coloration 

 of the hind tibiae, however, readily distinguishes it 

 from that genus. The outer recurrent nervure is 

 rarely entirely wanting.] 



H. graculus, Grav. (18.) Not uncommon in boggy spots in 

 May, July and August; Suffolk, Herts., Gloucester, 

 Surrey, Conwall. [ B. graculus, Grav., £ = obscuripes, 

 Holm., $ $ = rufocinctus, Desv., $ £.]

 August ; Suffolk, Surrey, Isle of Wight. 



H. alpinus, Holmgr. $ [= ? monticola, Voll., $.]* Scandi- 

 navia and ? Switzerland. 



H. caudatus, Thoms.f (1.) The only specimen I have seen 

 was taken by Capron in Surrey. 



H. longipcs, Holmgr.* Scandinavia. 



H. punctiventris, Thoms.-j- (2). Felden near Boxmoor, in 

 Herts. (Piffard) ; Cornworthy near Totnes, in Devon

H. Uguttatns, Grav. (9.) Probably not common; I only 

 possess it from Surrey and Herts. [= var. rufip>cs, 

 Grav., Holmgr. = var. (scut, apically white) deplanatus,
