Glypta elongata, Holmgr,— Poyntzpass, in fields, in July, a variety with 
black abdomen occurred. 
G. fronticornis, Grav. — Poyntzpass, at Angelica, in August, rare. 
G. genalis, ]Moll. — Poyntzpass, in fields, in July, very rare. Mr. Morley 
says :— " The only specimen I have seen is a female in Marshall's 
collection in the British Museum ; it is labelled by Billups — ' From 
Taeniocampa miniosa Mr. Fenn ' — and on the same card is its own 
transparent papyraceous cocoon, which is cylindrical and nearly 
colourless." I took it at Coolmore, as already recorded, Irish 
Naturalist, xxii., p. [40. This species is remarkable for the peculiar 
beak -like production of the face owing to the great length of the 
cheeks.
