Calosoma inquisitor. Indepently of the beautiful 

 colouring of the genus to which this species belongs, 

 the insects it comprises differ from most of the Geo- 

 dephaga by peculiarity of habit ; leaving their con- 

 geners to pursue their prey upon the ground, they 

 climb in pursuit of caterpillars over hedges, and 

 even to the tops of trees, and fly with a celerity only 

 equalled by the Cicindeliadae. The grubs or larvae 

 are so voracious as to gorge till they become quite 

 helpless, in which state they are devoured by those 

 of their brethren whose " famine is not filled." 



Agonum sex-punctatum. Several authors have 

 stated that, since the year 1812, this insect has dis- 

 appeared ; it once, however, occurred in this county 

 in 1828.
