Linnaeus. 



Hab. Europe. 



One, Lancashire : Pennant, Brit. Zool. vol. i. p. 180.

Obs. Although, some years since, I included this

 appeared at the time to be a sufficient warranty, I 

 think on maturer consideration that the species has 

 little or no claim to be included in the present list.
