NOTES ON SPECIES NEW TO IKELAND. 



Of the above list three species have not previously been taken in Ireland; 

 they are as follows : — 



Pedanostethus arundinetis Camb. 

 Metopobactrus prominulus Camb. 

 Diplocephalus castaneipes Simon. 



Pedanostethus arundinetis Camb. 



I took several females of this species, which is new to the Irish list, at 

 Mulranny, Co. Mayo, and also at Eecess, Co. Galway, in July, 1909. It 

 has been recorded from only five localities in Great Britain, ranging from 

 Dorset to Paisley in Scotland. On the continent of Europe it has been found 

 in Sweden, Holland, Bavaria, and Hungary. 



Metopobactrus prominulus Camb. 



I took a single female of this species, which has not previously been found 

 in Ireland, at Mulranny, Co. Mayo, in July, 1909. Dr. Jackson was kind 

 enough to identify it for me. In England it has been found to be widely 

 distributed, ranging from Dorset to Northumberland, but it has not so far 

 been taken in Scotland. On the Continent it is recorded from France, Bavaria, 

 Nassau, and Silesia.
