M. Brisout de Barneville Las described several new species of Acridiurn, Acinipe, 

 and Tetrix, from Algeria and France, (Ann. Soc. Ent. Fr. viii. pp. Ivi. lxiii.) 



A new genus of Orthoptera, named Dachinia, is described by Haldemann, in the 

 ' Transactions of the American Association for the Advancement of Science' for 1850. 



Neuroptera. 



Hemerobiid*. 



Dr. Hagen has continued his revision of the modern literature of the Neuroptera, 

 his recent articles consisting of the genera Nematoptera and the Hemerobiids, in the 

 Stettin 'Zeitung,' pp. 118, 185; Ascalaphida?, p. 186;* Phryganeida?, p. 365. 



Dr. Schneider's ' Symbolas ad Monographiam Generis Chrysopae ' (Vratislav. 1851, 

 pp. 178, tab. 60), is one of the most complete monographs hitherto published, contain- 

 ing 53 species of the restricted genus Cbrysopa, and 1 of the new closely allied genus 

 Apochrysa. The plates are quite remarkable for their elegance and delicacy. 



The species of the genus Chrysopa found in Austria have been described by Brauer 

 in Hardinger's ' Abhandlungen.' A critical notice of this memoir is appended by 

 Schneider at the end of his monograph on the same genus. 



M. F. Dujardin has published (Ann. Sci. Nat. 3rd ser. xv.) the description of a neu- 

 ropterous larva, apparently allied to Hemerobius, but without elongated mandibles 

 and maxilla;, and with dilated palpi, which he regards as that of Hemerobius hirtus, 

 but which appears to be that of the genus Coniortes, Wesliv. (Coniopteryx, Curt., 

 Malacomyza, Wesm.), agreeing with Mr. Haliday's figure, published by Mr. Curtis, 

 in most of its essential characters. 



AsCALAPHIDffi. 



Descriptions of four Russian species of Ascalaphus have been published by Evers- 

 man in the Bull. Soc. Nat. Moscow, 1850, pt. 3. 



Perlid^;. 



A paper by Mr. G. Newport, on the anatomy and affinities of Pteronarcys regalis, 

 Newm., with descriptions of some American Perlidae, and notes on their habits, has 

 appeared in the Trans. Linn. Soc. xx. pt. iii. 



Trichoptera. 

 Phryganeida. 



A memoir by Hagen on Phryganea grandis and striata, appears in the 5th volume 

 of the ' Linnaea Entomologica.' 



A note by Hagen on the remarkable Phryganideous Dromophila montana, and on 

 the identity of Lepinotus, Heyden, with my genus Clothilla, •{• appears in the Stettin 

 4 Zeitung,' p. 164. 



* The new Indian species described in my ' Cabinet of Oriental Entomology,' are 

 not noticed. 



f The contraction Westm., twice repeated, may possibly be mistaken for that of 

 the name of Wesmael, who has written upon the allied groups.
