city, on Mr. Bungay's authority. Mr. Backliouse got it at Dar- 

 lington; Mr. Ross found it "fairly common at Bishop Auckland;" 

 Dr. Lees met with it commonly in Upper Teesdale. It was not 

 scarce about Hartlepool when I commenced to collect, more 

 particularly in the Denes, but it gradually became rarer. It 

 still occurs occasionally in Hezleden Dene, but I have not seen 

 it elsewhere for a long time.

A rare species in both counties. Mr. D. Rosie took one at 

 Dinnington, and Mr. Henderson one at Jesmond, which are

 Mr. Sticks found the larva and imago regularly but very 

 sparingly about Lintz Green, and Townley Woods on the 

 Derwent, and also at Shotley Bridge. Mr. F. Raine took it 

 once at light at Durham ; Mr. Backhouse got it at ShuU ; Mr. 

 Sang at lamps at Darlington (29th Sept., 1854); and Mr. 

 Gardner met with it in a garden near Hartlepool Workhouse 

 in 1875.

Only a very occasional wanderer into our district. It does 

 not occur in Scotland, and as Mr. Porritt only gives three 

 localities in Yorkshire, York being the most northerly, we may
