OF NORTHUMBERLAND AND DURHAM. 235 



1 1 740. E. longula, Er. 



One $ from a lingering flower of meadow sweet, 

 Gibside, Sept., 1903. This was kindly identified by 

 Mr. Champion, and confirms Mr. Bold's doubtful 

 record (N. H. Trans., p. 56). 



E. cestiva, L., E. dcieta, Er., E. pann/la, Stm., 

 E. obsolefa, F., and E.pusilla, 111., are other examples 

 of this genus which have occurred to me from the 

 Derwent Valley. 

 1758. Omosita depressa, L. 



Winlaton Mill, June, 1902. 



1764. Meligethes rttfipes, Gyll. 

 Winlaton, 1902. 



1793. M. obscuriis, Er. {distinctiis, Shp. Cat.). 



Winlaton and Rowlands Gill, Sept. and Oct. 



" Rare. Seghill Dene, May " (N. H. Trans., p. 57. 

 M. distinctiis, Erich., I.e. 203 (?) ). 



Mr. E. A. Newbery very kindly identified this 

 insect, which confirms Mr. Bold's seemingly doubt- 

 ful record. 

 1799. Cychravnis iuteus, F. 



"Rare" (N. H. Trans., p. 58). 



Not uncommon in flowers, hawthorn, and meadow 

 sweet ; Winlaton Mill. 



I have found it more commonly than C. fungicola, 

 Heer. (recorded by Bold as common), if, indeed, 

 these two names are not synonymous. 



1803. Ips quadriguttata, F. 



Beneath oak bark, Winlaton Mill, June, 1904. In 

 boletus {Polyporus radiattis) Gibside, October and 

 November, 1904. 



" Beneath bark of oak, bird-cherry, etc. Rare " 

 (N. H. Trans., p. 58). 



*i8o9. Rhizophagtis perforatiis, Er, 



Was taken from beneath the bark of a felled plane 

 tree at Lockhaugh, near Rowlands Gill, in Sept.,
