 D. cinerea, Herbst. {B. hydrocharidis, H. MS.). 



ITlSTEE. 



This species is included on the strength of a note in the Haliday 

 MS. list, indicating that it was found at Lough II^Teagh by Mr. T. V. 

 Wollaston, the specimens having been seen by Mr. Haliday.

 '59 Be. ; Kenmare, and Dinish Island, '98 Ht. 4, coll. Hr.). 



Abundant in the Wexford locality on Phragmites. In Great 

 Britain this local species seems confined to the southern counties of 

 England. Widely distributed throughout the Palaearctic region.

Meath ("Hill of Down, in the canal, in Potamogeton, Dr. 

 AUman," H. MS.).— DubHn (Eoyal Canal, '93 Ht. 1). 



Early in April, 1893, one of us captured a specimen of this rarity 

 in the Royal Canal near Dublin, and from time to time it has occurred 

 near the same place, but always in small numbers. There seems no 

 doubt that these Dublin specimens are H. appeyidiculata, an opinion 

 in which we are supported by Mr. Gr. C. Champion. Compared 

 with H. Ourtisi, which is found in brackish-water, they are larger
