Mr Hardy on the Entomology of the Cheviot Hills. 251 



Leptacinus linearis. Pond near Wooler ; in hay near Earle. 



Othius melanocephalus. Very common at the top of Hedge- 

 hope in October ; scarcer on Cheviot, where the ground is 

 moister. 



Lathrobium quadratum. Cold Martin Moss. 



Stilictjs afpinis. In garden refuse, &c. Wooler, East Lilburn, 

 Langleyford vale. 



Dianous ccerttlescefs. This fine insect is accounted rare ; hut 

 it occurred in great profusion by shaking the wet moss about 

 the sides of small waterfalls, in the burns among the hills. 

 Broadstruther back-burn ; above the "Slack" waterfall, which 

 is opposite Hartheugh. 



Stenus incanus, -EV. Cold Martin Moss. Hitherto only taken 

 by Dr Sharp in Dumfriesshire, and there rarely. New. 



,, Guynemeri, Duv. One among the drenched moss at the 

 side of the "Slack" waterfall, opposite Hartheugh. It is 

 peculiar to such situations. The moss was Bacomitrium aciculare. 

 Mr Hislop reports it from Stitchell Linn. The original speci- 

 mens were found in the Pyrenees. (" Ann. de la Soc. Ent. 

 France," 1850, p. 52.) New. 



,, glacialis, Heer. From Mr Hislop' s description, the moss 

 in which this was found was Bacomitrium lanuginosum, ; and

 [Roxburghshire.
