 XX., fig. 6. 

 Wallington, Dr. Power. 



I have frequently found various species of Corixa to be in- 

 fested with minute red mites, generally on the upper side of the 

 abdomen, and adhering to the membrane between the segments. 

 In a specimen in my possession a hole is drilled in each corium, 

 immediately over the mites, and evidently intended to give them 

 free egress and ingress to their dwelling place. 



HEMIPTERA-HOMOPTERA.

 Trans, of Northumberland and Durham, I., 313.)

VII., 147. 

 New to the British fauna. A few specimens in my collection 

 were taken in Gosforth Woods. 



66. C. brachycranus, Fieb. (M.S.) ; Scott, 1. c. 148. 



The only known British example is a male, which I took in 

 Gosforth Woods, in September. 



LIBURNIA, Stall. (DELPHAX, Auct.) 



67. L. Boldi, Scott, 1. c. 68. 



A female, taken by myself in Seghill Dene, in May, is the 

 only known representative of the species. 



68. L. melanopachys, Fieb. (M.S.) ; Scott, 1. c. 70. 



A male, from Gosforth Woods, in September, is the only 

 known specimen of this species. 



69. L. leptosoma, Flor (?) Scott, 1. c. 27. 



An undeveloped female, from Cheviot, was rather doubtingly 

 referred to this species by Mr. Douglas.
