MacLeod observed Apis, a humble-bee, a fossorial wasp, and 7 Lepidoptera 

 in Flanders (Bot. Jaarb. Dodonaea, Ghent, vi, 1894, p. 349); and 8 humble-bees, 

 2 short- tongued bees, a lepidopterid, and a beetle in the Pyrenees (op. cit, iii, 1891, 

 p. 436). H. de Vries saw the honey-bee in the Netherlands (Ned. Kruidk. Arch., 

 Nijmegen, 2. sen, 2. deel, 1875). 



E. D. Marquard noticed the bee Melitta leporina Pz. in Cornwall. 



In England Smith saw the bee Melitta leporina Pz. and Saunders the bee 

 CoUetes marginatus Z. 



In Dumfriesshire Apis and a hover-fly have been recorded (Scott-Elliot, ' Flora 

 of Dumfriesshire,' p. 46).

Lindman noticed numerous humble-bees in the Dovrefjeld. 



Loew saw the honey-bee on the variety atropurpureum in the Berlin Botanic 

 Garden. 



686. T. hybridum L. — The flowers of this species being at first white and 

 erect, afterwards rose-red and curved downwards, the heads present a white centre 

 and a rose-red margin, and are thus rendered more conspicuous. The mechanism 

 agrees with that of the last species. 



Visitors. — Buddeberg saw a bee, Melitta leporina Pz. S, skg., in Nassau. 



I observed the honey-bee and the two following humble-bees in Thuringia 

 (' Bloemenbiol. Bijdragen').— i. Bombus agrorum F. J (Coburg, July 4, 1894); 

 2. B. terrester Z. 5 (Inselsberg, July 16, 1894). 



687. T. fragiferum L. (Herm. MuUer, 'Fertilisation, p. 183, 'Weit. Beob.,' 

 p. 246; MacLeod, Bot. Jaarb. Dodonaea, Ghent, vi, 1894, p. 349; Knuth, ' Bl. u. 

 Insekt. a. d. nordfr. Ins., pp. 60, 153, 'Weit. Beob. ii. Bl. u. Insekt. a. d. nordfr. Ins.,' 

 ' Bl. u. Insekt. a. d. Halligen.') — As Hermann Muller states, the mechanism in this 

 species is the same as in T. repens, but all the parts of the flowers are smaller. 



Visitors.— In Kiel I observed the following nect-skg. bees. —
