A HISTORY OF BUCKINGHAMSHIRE 



Ilyobates propinquus and /. glabriventris, Euryporus picipes, Stapbylinus fulvipes 

 and S. latebricola, Medon obsoletus, Oxytelus fairmairei, Compsocbilus palpalis, 

 Homalium salicis and Pseudopsis sulcata. Among the Clavicornia again 

 Mr. Elliman has done good work, having taken such species as Anisotoma 

 oblonga, Agaricopbagus cepbalotes, Eutbia scbaumi, Trichonyx markeli and T. 

 su/cico//is,etc.; 2 1 species of Meligetbes have been recorded from the county, 

 26 species of Longitarsus, and no less than 54 species of Apion. In the 

 days of the early collectors, Black Park was a well known locality ; in 

 1857 Megapenthes tibialis was captured here, and other good species were, 

 I believe, also found. Little Brickhill near Stony Stratford used to be the 

 chief locality for the very rare weevil, Acalyptus carpini, which does not ap- 

 pear to have been taken for many years ; it was taken in some numbers in 

 this place on sallows in April 1852 by Mr. S. Stevens. Several good 

 Heteromera have occurred, among them Tetratoma desmaresti and T. ancora, 

 Hallomenus humeralis and Conopalpus festaceus, while among the Rhyn- 

 chophora may further be noticed Cboragus sbeppardi, Apion annulipes, 

 Bracbysomus hirtus, Gymnetron melanarius and G. rostellum, Poophagus nas- 

 turtii, Ceuthorrhyncbus euphorbia, Rbinoncus denticollis, Gissopbagus hederee 

 and Cryphalus fagi. Considering the small number of workers who have 

 paid attention to the Coleoptera of the county, the list given below is 

 an eminently satisfactory one.
