may be that it is to be found with us, like many other Geodephaga, 

 only in the early summer, since Messrs. Ernest Elliott, E. A. Butler, 

 E. C. Bedwell, and myself have assiduously searched in the spot 

 first mentioned during August with no result, and I have, together 

 with Eev. E. N. Bloomfield and other friends, carefully worked 

 the sandhills, &c., from Kessingland to Dunwich, paying especial 

 attention to Southwold, in late July and August, of recent years, with 

 no better success. I am indebted to Mr. E. A. Newbery for calling 

 my attention to Mr. Johnson's record, which I had overlooked. With 

 regard to the distribution of A. gracilipes, v. Heyden, Reitter, and 

 Weise say simply, " Northern and Middle Europe," but Bedel gives 

 Sweden, Belgium, Germany, England, Eussia, and Siberia ; it is not, 

 however, I believe, recorded from Holland, whence probably came 

 Curtis's Ohlcenius sulcicollis, Payk., Dawson's reputed Licinus cassideus, 

 F., and, more doubtfully, Mr. B. Tomlin's recent specimen of Ghry- 

 somela (Orina) gloriosa, F., var. superha, Oliv. (cf. Ent. Sec, vol. x, 

 p. 104).

 perfectly with the one in my possession. — Gr. C. C]
