preoccupied, and as they form good genera, Philia cannot stand, 

 and for "Philia, Stal nee Schiodte," I propose " Schioedtia, nn., 

 type senator (Fabr.)." 



2. To the same entry in the 'Entomologist ' (1903, p. 215) 

 add : — 



Schiodte, 1842-3, Naturh. Tidskr. iv. p. 330. (S) Cepha- 

 loctenus, unnecessary " emendation " for Cephalocteiis, Dufour, 

 1834. 



3. The reference to Legnottis, Lethierry and Severin (Cat. i. 

 p. 78), is Kroyer's Naturh. Tidskr. (2), ii. p. 464. 



Fam. Naucorid^ (?). 

 1. Sherborn (* Index Animalium,' 1902, p. 647) cites a hemi- 

 pterous genus, Naucorinus, Meuschen, 1778, Mus. Gronov. p. 69, 

 with apparently (see p. 1146) no species mentioned. I have not 

 seen the work recently, but believe the form is only used in the 

 plural, and is rather of a tribal or sectional value. I would be 

 grateful for any information.

LEPIDOPTERA OF THE LINCOLNSHIEE COAST. 



By a. E. Gibbs, F.L.S. 



I had the good fortune to spend the month of July, 1904, at 

 Theddlethorpe St. Helen, a little-frequented spot on the Lincoln- 

 shire coast. Our bungalow was situated on the top of the sand- 

 hills, which are of considerable height, and have been raised to 

 protect the low-lying district eastwards of the wolds from the 

 ravages of the sea. These sandhills, upon which most of my 

 collecting took place, are covered with scrub, consisting chiefly 

 of sea-buckthorn, dwarf elder, whitethorn, bramble, and similar
