fir trees ; and when you rap the trees with a stick they will 

 fly up and down and round the trees for some time before 

 they again settle upon them. Now it is quite different with 

 your Pinicolana : their flight is different from that of the 

 other species ; so much so that when you see them on the 

 wing you can tell which species you are looking at; then 

 again they do not appear on the wing until nearly all the 

 others have settled for the evening; and when you strike the 

 trees with a stick they seldom fly, or if they do it is only for 

 about a yard, and then they creep down to the roots of the 

 heath. I believe your Pinicolana is as good a species as any 

 in our list." 



Retinia occultana, Doug. — Mr. Douglas's figure and 

 description of this species appeared before Professor Zeller's, 

 and his name ought to be adopted. 



Pamplusia subsequana, Haw. — This species is identical 

 with the Asthena pygmaeana of Hubner, and is totally distinct 

 from the Monticolana of Duponchel, to which it bears no 

 resemblance. 



Grapholita microgrammana, — Guenee named and de- 

 scribed this species long before Herrich-Schaeffer figured it. 



I meant to have added a few remarks upon the species of 

 the genus Eupoecilia, but must leave them till I have 

 examined more specimens.

On Locusts. By the Baron De Selys-Longchamps. 

 Translated by F. Walker, Esq. 



In the * Annales de la Societe Entomologique de Belgique,' 

 vol. vi., De Selys-Longchamps published a Catalogue of 

 the Dermaptera of Belgium, and vol. xi. of the same perio- 

 dical includes his additions and corrections to that Catalogue. 

 In vol. vi. he considers Pachytylus cinerascens as a race 

 of P. migratorius, but in vol. xi. p. 32, he believes it to be 

 really distinct, though its characters are not very definite. 

 Brunner de Wattenwyl forwarded to him the following parallel 

 between the two species; —
