cespiiicollis Walck. 



Common and widely dispersed in the British Isles and abroad. 



By some considered merely as a variety or sub-species of P. 



aureolus, as on the Continent several intermediate forms occur. 



In the British Isles these do not occur, and the males of the 



two species (but not the females) are easily differentiated. 



Season and habitat the same. In my own experience the 



commoner of the two species in Yorkshire. First occurrence —
