Notes on captures of Hemiptera-Heteroptera dwring 1869 and 1870.—During the 
past two seasons, I have collected all the species of Hemiptera that I came across ; 
and, as they include several rare species, I have thought that a few notes on them 
would not be uninteresting. 
Amongst others, the following species have occurred to me :—Sehirus dubius, 
Scop. ; rarely, in moss, under junipers on the chalk downs near Croydon, in the 
winter months. Corimelena scarabeoides, Lin.; commonly, at Mickleham, in 
moss, in April; also at Darenth. Sciocoris terreus, Sch.; on the sand-hills at Deal, 
rather common; Mayand July. Alia acuminata, Lin.; Darenth Wood, by beating 
in June and July. lioides inflewa, Wolff; rather common, at Shirley, Mickleham 
and Darenth, by sweeping in May. Lysarcoris eneus, Scop.; not rare, in the New 
forest, at Lyndhurst, by sweeping in grassy places in the young plantations; July. - 
Zicrona cerulea, Lin.; common in moss, on the chalk downs at Croydon and 
Mickleham. Rhacognathus punctatus, Lin.; a few specimens at Shirley and Leith 
Hill, in moss amongst heath; April and September. Asopus lwridus, Fab. ; 
Darenth and Mickleham, by beating in May and June; a few specimens. Choro-
