6ISSING : FLORA OF WAKEFIELD.

Larentia ruficinciata, I took on Maol Ghyrdhy, between Glen Lyon 

 and Glen Lochay. Dicranura vinula, and D. furetila, usually not common 

 in this district, have been far from rare. At Largo in Fife, Charceas graminis 

 Agroiis valUgera, and A. aquilina, Luperina testacea, and Miana liter osa, 

 were common, while a few examples of CelcBna Hawortliii and one of 

 Cirroedia Xerampelina, turned up. Largo is thus a new station for the local 

 Xerampelina. 



Hadena rectilinia, was found by Mr. Stewart m Perth. 



Dasypolia templi, was taken by me on a lamp on September 18th. 

 This insect as far as I am aware has not before been found in Scotland, and 

 is consequently an addition to the Fauna of this part of Britain. I should 

 be obliged by any one informing me if I am mistaken. 



I found one specimen of Scopula alpinalis, in the Breadalbane district.
