Gattrodytes confinis, Gyll.,* Jerkin ; one example. O. lapponicns, Th.,* high 

 ground above Domaas, and also at Jerkin ; this insect appears to be exceedingly 

 closely allied to O. congener, Payk. Q. bipustulatus, Linn., near Jerkin ; Dovrefjeld 

 examples are of small size, and resemble the var. soUeri, Aub. ; most of the females 

 captured have the elytra much suffused with reddish. Tkliboptera bicolor, Key,* 

 Domaas, not uncommonly under stones, in company with Amara Quenseli. These 

 examples agree with one thus named in Dr. Sliarp's collection from that of Sahlberg ; 

 the species is not included in Siebke's list ; T. bicolor is recorded from Germany 

 and France. Uomalota graminicola, Grav., Kongsvold. Tachinus pallipes, Grav., 

 Kongsvold ; not rare, in dung. Staphylinvs erythropterus, Linn., Vestnaes and 

 Soholt. Quedionuchtts Icevigatus, Gyll., Stueflaaten. Olisthcerus megacephalus, 

 Zett.,* Toftemoen ; two examples, under pine bark. Olophritm boreale, Payk.,* 

 Kongsvold ; in abundance, in very wet moss at the side of a waterfall. Acidoia 

 crenata, Fabr., summit of Snsehoetten, 7600 feet ; three examples, on the snow. 

 Anthophagiis alpinus, Payk., and A. homalinus, Zett.,* Domaas, Jerkin, and Kongs- 

 vold ; common on birch. Geodromicus plagiatus, Er., Kongsvold ; common, in wet 

 moss in waterfall ; these examples are dark in colour, and almost intermediate in 

 the length of the elytra between G. plagiatus and G. globulicollis, Mann. Deli- 

 phrum tectum, Payk., Kongsvold ; abundant, in dung. Homalium (Phlaostiba) 

 pineti, Th., Domaas ; under pine bark ; this species is not included in Siebke's list. 

 Oxytelus luteipennis, Er., Kongsvold and Jerkin ; a dark form of this insect is not 

 uncommon in the Dovrefjeld. The species is not mentioned in Siebke's list. Silpha 

 lapponica, Fabr.,* and S. opaca, Linn., high ground above Domaas. Cerylon his- 

 teroides, Fabr., Domaas. Endomychus coccineus, Linn., Utvik. Byrrhus fasciatus, 

 Fabr, Domaas and Kongsvold. Aphodius piceus, Gyll.,* and A. lapponum, Schonh., 

 Kongsvold, Jerkin, Domaas ; the former not uncommon, the latter abundant. Serica 

 brtmnea, Linn., Soholt. Trichius fasciatus, Linn., Christiansand. Anthaxia quadri- 

 punctata, Linn.,* Lilleliammer ; common, on flowers. Corymbites eeneus, Linn., 

 Lillehammer. C. holosericetts, Oliv., Soholt. Cryptohypnus sp. ?,* Jerkin ; one 

 example ; I am unable to identify this species from Thomson. It is allied to C. 

 maritimus. Curt. ; but has the tliorax more rounded at the sides, and broader; and 

 the two basal joints of the antennse testaceous. C. riparius, Fabr., Jerkin. Seri- 

 cosomus brunneus, Linn., Lillehammer. Dictyoptera sanguinea, Linn.,* Stueflaaten ; 

 three examples, on the trunk of a fallen Scotch fir. Telephorvs obscurus, Gyll., 

 Domaas. T. assimilis, Payk.,* Lillehammer and Domaas ; a female example from 

 each locality, and apparently belonging to this species. T. pilosus, Payk.,* Jerkin ; 

 several examples of both sexes, including the pale variety, on dwarf sallow. T. 

 figuratus, Mann., Lillehammer. Ehagonycha eJongata, Fall., Domaas and Jerkin. 

 R. ater, Linn.,* Lillehammer. Podabrus alpinus, Payk., Christiansand, Lillehammer, 

 Dovrefjeld, &c. Dasytes niger, Gyll., Jerkin ; not rare, on flowers of Geranium 

 sylvaticum ; Dovrefjeld examples do not differ from those from the New Forest ; 

 the difference of habitat is remarkable. Ccenocara bovistcB, Hoffm., Domaas ; three 

 examples. This species is not included in Siebke's list ; it is not, however, new to 

 Scandinavia. Ernobiiis nigiinus, St., Jerkin; above the pine-region. 3Iordella
