218 [February, 
in 4to, uniform with the Acta, and vols. 1, 2, 3, of the Notiser may in some sense 
be regarded as appendices to vols. 2, 3, 4, of the Acta. But on the completion 
of vol. 3 of the Notiser, the 4to. was abandoned, an 8vo. series was begun, and 
yol. 11 (or vol. 8 of the new series), dated 1871, is now before me.® I hope that a 
complete set of the Notiser will shortly be in the Entomological Society’s library, 
and thereby render accessible to our members the papers, not only of Nylander, 
but of Tengstrém, Sahlberg, and Reuter. 
To revert more particularly to Nylander’s papers on Aeuleate Hymenoptera. 
Vol. i. of the Notiser contains “ Mutillides, Scoliide: et Sapygides boreales,” read 
12th April, 1847 ; “ Strédda Anteckningar”’ (including some notes on Ants), read 
17th May, 1847 ; and the ‘‘ Adnot. in expos. monogr. Apum borealium,” read 6th 
December, 1847. Vol. ii. of the Notiser contains ‘“‘Supplementum Adnot. in exp. 
mon. Apum bor.,” read 18th November, 1850, and the ‘* Revisio Synoptica Apum 
borealium,” read 8th December, 1851. As there are some errors in Hagen’s Biblio- 
theca Entomologica respecting these papers, it may be worth while to add the 
following : 
NytanvrEr (William); of Helsingfors, in Finland. 
1. Adnotationes in Monographiam Formicarum borealium Europe. 
Acta Soc. Sci. Fennice, ii. 875—944. (Helsingfors, 1846). 
2. Additamentum ad Adn. in. Mon. Form. bor. Europe. 
Acta Soc. Sci. Fenn. ii. 1041—1062. (1846). 
3. Additamentum alterum ad Adn. in Mon, Form. bor. Europa. 
Acta Soe. Sci. Fenn. iii. 25—48. (1849). 
4, Mutillidee, Scoliidz, et Sapygide boreales. 
Notiser ur Siallskapets pro Fauna et Flora Fennica Férhandlingar, i. 
7—30. (1848). 
5. Strédda Anteckningar. 
Notiser &c., i. 289—304,. (1848). 
6. Adnotationes in expositionem monographicam Apum borealium. 
Notiser &e., i. 165—282. (1848). 
7. Supplementum Adnotationum in exp. monog. Apum borealium. 
Notiser &e., ii. 983—107. (1852). 
8. Revisio Synoptica Apum borealium, comparatis speciebus Europa mediz. 
Notiser &c., ii. 225—286. (1852). 
With the exception of No. 5, Mr. Smith refers to all these papers, though 
apparently without knowing that he was citing two of them. For, the references to 
Formica glabrella (p. 2), Myrmica lippula (p. 3), M. unifasciata and flavidula, and 
Myrmecina striatula (p. 4), should all be to “ Mon. Form. Addit. alteram” that is to 
“ Acta Fenn. vol. iii,” the pages being correctly given, except Myrmica flavidula, 
which is iii. 43 (not 33). And the references for Tiphia femorata (p. 5) should be 
“Mutill. Scol. &c., bor.,” that is “ Notiser Fenn. i. 21,” and for T. minuta, “ Notiser 
Fenn. i. 24,” 
It was the last two references to Nylander which led me to test Mr. Smith’s 
* Tn the Zool. Record for 1870, Mr. W. F. Kirby has referred to the 10th vol. (z.e. the 7th of the 
new series, which properly belonged to the Record for 1869) under the abbreviation ‘‘ Fauna et 
Flora Fenn. Foérh.,” but at p. 409, Caradrina cinerascens, the vol. is erroneously given as xi. 
instead of x ; and at p, 420, Tortrix lapponana, the page is given 310 instead-of 359.—J. W. D.
