 been detected in any of the other islands. It occurs also at Mogadore, 

 on the opposite coast of Africa.

Likewise peculiar, so far as has been observed hitherto, to Lanza- 

 rote of the Canarian Group having been detected by myself at the 

 edges of the salt lake of Januvio, adjoining the south-western coast 

 of that island.

This Tachys, which may possibly be but a small state of the T. 

 4-signatus of southern Europe, is nearly universal throughout these 

 Atlantic islands occurring at the edges of the streams, and in wet 

 places generally, at most elevations. At the Madeiran Group I have 

 taken it sparingly in Madeira proper, and rather abundantly in Porto 

 Santo ; whilst at the Canaries it has been captured in the whole 

 seven islands except Hierro, where, however, it will doubtless be 

 found to exist.

The T. Lucasii of Mediterranean latitudes occurs rather commonly, 

 at low and intermediate elevations, in Madeira proper ; but it has 

 not yet been detected in any of the other islands.
