 Physical Features of the North of England. 



DIPTERA, 

 1884, 1885, 1886, and 1887. 



The present instalment of 28 titles for four years proves how very 

 scant is the attention paid by North of England naturalists to an 

 order of insects so large and numerically important as is that of the 

 Two-winged Flies. It is gratifying, however, to note the appearance 

 of a small list for Lincolnshire, from the pen of Mr. H. Wallis Kew, 

 and to note also the references given in their general papers by 

 dipterists of the standing of Messrs. R. H. Meade and G. H. Verrall 

 while the long series of titles to the score of Mr. Peter Inchbald 

 demonstrate how energetically that naturalist continues his task of 

 working out the life-histories of the gall-gnats. In connection with 

 Mr. Inchbald's papers, it is, however, to be noted with a considerable 

 amount of regret that in very few instances does he give clear 

 indications of the localities from whence his specimens came, thus 

 leaving the reader to surmise what he can from the address given at 

 the foot of the notes, and destroying much of the value of the notes.
