Some Notes on a Paper by Dr. Leach on Ants and Gnats in 1825. 
By H. DONISTHORPE, F.Z.S., F.E.S. 
My friend Mr. F. D. Morice called my attention to a paper by Dr. 
Leach, “ Descriptions of Thirteen* Species of Farmica and Three 
Species of Culex, found in the environs of Nice,’ [Zool. Journ., 2, 
289-93 (1825)], and asked me if I knew whether Leach’s types were in. 
the National Collection. Having obtained the volume of the Zoologi- 
cal Journal in question, I find that the species described are as under. 
Opposite each of Leach’s names I give the identification of it suggested _ 
by v. Dalla Torre [Cat. Hym., 7 (1893)]. The notes of exclamation 
signify that v. Dalla Torre was unable to ascertain to what species the 
insects in question really belonged.
