In the course of publication it has unavoidably become necessary 

 to make the following additions and corrections. 



Addenda. 



Page 4135. After Trechus fulvus, insert 



Blemus pallidus, Ste., (Trechus labidosus, Dawson). Of this local species I 

 captured a specimen on the beach at Killiney ; it has also been taken by Mr. Hali- 

 day, at Hollywood, Co. Down. 



Page 4136. At foot of second column, insert 

 Limnius variabilis, Ste. Loughlinstown ? 

 Elmis parallelopipedus, Mull. Dodder. 

 „ Volkmari, Pz. Enniskerry.

Melolontha Hippocastani, F. Roebuck; taken by James Haughton, Esq. 

 Melanotus rufipes, Hbst. Taken by Mr. Tardy.

Corrigenda. 



Page 4135. Dele Agonum Bogemanni, Ste. 

 Page 4136. For Elaphrus riparius, X., &c, read 



Elaphrus cupreus, Dj. Glen near Ticknock ; by It. H. S. Smith, Esq. 

 After Helophorus griseus, Hbst. Local : insert 



Helophorus nubilus, F. Clontarf ; by Miss M. Ball. It is to this species, and 

 not to the preceding, that the note respecting the variety should be appended.

On the Catalogue thus concluded there is little to remark, save the 

 absence of many species usually common in similar localities, which 

 constant observation during the past half century has failed to dis- 

 cover, and few of which I think likely to be brought to light here- 

 after, notwithstanding Mr. Douglas's very encouraging remarks on 

 " Terra Incognita." We have hardly anything to compensate us 

 in the way of species considered rare or local in other parts of 

 the British Isles, with the exception, perhaps, of Trechus labidosus, 

 Heterocerus femoralis, Lathrobium angusticolle, Thinobius longipen- 

 nis, and two or three more ; even Diglossa mersa is no longer peculiar 

 to the Irish coast, having been taken in large numbers on the coast of 

 France, in the year 1852, by Messrs. Blanchard and Signoret, and in 

 Scotland by M. Javet. In one genus only have we more than the 

 proportion of species that might be expected, namely, Cercyon ;
