OF LINCOLNSHIRE. 



JAMES EARDLEY MASON, 

 The Sycamores, AlforJ. 



Since my list appeared in The Naturalist of October last, I have 

 ascertained the occurrence in the Alford district of the following 

 additional species. 



LYG/EID.i:. 



Gastrodes ferrugineus L. Well ; abundant on Scotch fir 

 (Pin us sylvesiris), ioth and 20th October, 1888. 



CAPSID/E. 



Teratocoris saundersi D. & S. Mablethorpe ; sandhills, one 



male, 18th August, 1888. 

 Phytocoris pini Kirsch. Well; one, 23rd August, 1888. 

 Calocoris striatus L. Well Vale; hawthorn, two adult and 



many immature, 25th June, 1888. 

 Calocoris roseomaculatus DeGeer. Well ; Rest-harrow (Ononis 



arvensis), one, 16th August, 1888. 

 Chlamydatus ambulans Fall. Well ; several, 23rd August, 1888. 

 Dicyphus Stachydis Reut. Well ; some on Lychnis diurna in 



June, in company with D. globulifer, and abundant on Stachys 



sylvatica in August and October. 

 Dicyphus epilobii Reut. Well ; two on Epilobium hirsutum, 



1 8th October, 1888. 

 Harpocera thoracica Fall. Well Yale ; one female, 16th June, 



1888. 

 Psallus roseus Fall. Well; one, 23rd August, 1888. Authorpe, 



two, 7th July, 1888. 

 The Dicyphi and the Phytocoris pini have been verified by 

 Mr. Edward Saunders. 



It may be worth recording that on the 23rd August, 1888, I took 

 two of the rare Dicyphus constrictus on the very spot where, in 

 September, 1886, the first two English specimens fell to my net. 

 The food-plant will be found to be Lychnis diurna ox Stachys sylvatica, 

 in all probability, perhaps both.
