North. and Durh., his numerous notes of addition and correction affecting the 
original Catalogue of Northumbrian Coleoptera. The result of his labours appears 
to be the addition of upwards of 400 species to the local list, raising it to 1527 
species, as compared with the 1172 sp. of the original Catalogue, of which, however, 
many were erroneonsly enumerated. At p. 109, Mr. Bold describes a new species 
of Scymnus, under the name lividus, and compared with small pale discoideus, from 
which it would appear to differ in being more oval and much more finely and evenly 
punctured. An indication of a possibly new species of Gyrophena and a record of 
Aleochara villosa, Mann. (?),—a species new to the British list, are given at p. 114. 
It is much to be regretted that the result of Mr. Bold’s conscientious labour should 
be disfigured by an inordinate number of printer’s errors.
