 and characters. Enters but little within the superagrarian

Native. Glareal. Very local ; but has been reported 

 from various provinces, through the mistake of applying 

 the name or synonymes of the present species to examples 

 of L. tenuis. All the English specimens which I have seen 

 belong to L. hispidus, not to the present species, if we con- 

 sider the two distinct. ^
