NEW BRITISH SPECIES, ETC., IN 1867. 57 



The indefatigable Mr. Brewer found the Scopams above 

 mentioned at Bettys-y-Coed, N. Wales; — curiously enoug;h, 

 about the same time that it was taken in Scotland by Dr. 

 Sharp. He also secured a single Cryptoliyjinua maritwius 

 at the same place, and an apparently new Telephorus. On 

 Skiddaw he found (as did Mr. Edleston) Otiorltynchus 

 mmirus ; and at Horning Fen took the once rare Dromius 

 longiceps and Malachius ruficoUis in quantities. Of the 

 many other species that have occurred to him, Bledius taurus 

 and 23. hicornis in some numbers at Wells, Norfolk, B. atri- 

 capillus at Lowestoft, and Homalota dilaticornis at Reigate, 

 are, perhaps, the most con.sj)icuous. It may be worth noting 

 that Mr. Brewer has also again found the lovely Chrysomela 

 cerealis on Snowdon, and in some numbers. 



Erirliinus]}} Humus has suddenly {7nore Eduscc) appeared 

 in quantities, in more than one place ; and the capture of 

 Omlas Bohemanni at Southend by ray friend the Rev. H. 

 S. Gorhani seems worthy of note. 



To enumerate Dr. Power's good captures would neces- 

 sarily cause my paper to cease to be a shoit one. He has 

 confirmed as British Triplax I'vficolUSf to which reference is 

 hereafter made, and has found Lixus angustatus at Hastings 

 (of which he has carefully observed the earlier stages, trans- 

 formations, habits and parasites), and Apion dissimile at 

 Weybiidge, both in profusion, another example of Ceutho- 

 rhynchidius pumiUo at the latter place, and very many other 

 good things. 



I have, myself, found Ceuthorhynclms rapce at Tottenham, 

 in some numbers, on sisymbrium officinale (it has also been 

 found by Dr. Power in similar quantity), C. tarsnlis at 

 Belvedere, and Anisoxya fascula, Lcemophloeus himaculatus 

 (also found by Chas. Turner in the Ne\y Forest), Homalota
