THE NEUEOPTERA OF 

 CAMBRIDGESHIRE. 



By KENNETH J. MORTON, F.E.S. 



THE following lists of Neuroptera, in the broad sense, 

 occurring in Cambridgeshire, are based on a MS. Catalogue 

 by the late Rev. L. Jenyns 1 , and on collections made in the 

 county by Mr Geo. T. Porritt and myself, the authority in 

 each case being indicated by the respective initials. In 

 Mr Jenyns' catalogue the names given are those of Stephens ; 

 accordingly, in his case, the accuracy of the records depends 

 on his having correctly identified Stephens' species as re- 

 presented by the latter author's types determined by Mr 

 McLachlan. 



There seems to be no good ground however for concluding 

 that any of the species here recorded have not occurred in the 

 county. 



TRICHOPTERA. 



Phryganea grand-is, L. Near Ely (J). 



striata, L. Near Ely (J); Thorney (M). 



varia, F. Cambridge and elsewhere (J); Wicken 



(P). 



1 Jenyns in his MS. Catalogue gives a long list of Bird-lice, Mallo- 

 phaga, under the heading 'Anoplura' with the following note: "The 

 list of species of Anoplura taken in Cambridgeshire has reference in each 

 case to the Monographia Anoplurorum Britanniae, published in 1842 by 

 Mr Henry Denny of Leeds ; to whom all the specimens were sent for 

 examination and comparison at the time when he was collecting materials 

 for his work. All the species were named by him. This part of the 

 collection was afterwards given to the Entomological Society of London, 

 and is therefore not to be found in the cabinet containing the other orders 

 of Cambridgeshire Insects. (L. J.) "
