 kins concludes his account of the Kirby Collection of Sphecodes, etc. He 

 gives particulars of a dozen changes of names which will have to be made 

 in our lists : we give the first and last, from which it will be seen that these 

 are rather drastic : — Melitta monilicomis K. = Sphecodes subquadratus Sm. ; 

 and Andrena leucophthalma K.= Nomada borealis Nyl. Mr. H. Britten 

 writes on ' Meolica exiliformis Joy, a good species', and Mr. J. B. Walsh

 species.'
