 collecting for the Pt.I.A. Flora and Fauna Committee, and was identified 

 by Professor Carpenter. In England it has been found in Glamorganshire

 Sussex. On the Continent it is recorded from France, Austria, and Piussia

 England, ihough it is not numerous anywhere ; and it is found all over 

 France, where, however, it is much less common than U. scenicurn.
