CEY DETAR EA: 
By JOHN E. MurpuHy and THos. H. M. GORDON. 
IN the following paper are comprised two lists of Beetles 
which have been collected in the basin of the Clyde and 
the presence of which has not so far been recorded for the 
Clyde Area. The majority of these Beetles are undoubtedly 
natives of the localities, but a few, as the appended remarks 
hint, have probably been imported to the district in various 
ways.
