Rainfall for April.

it has been taken alive on tansy, at Wakefield ; and when the portion of 

 the transactions of the Union containing the Coleoptera is published, I 

 think it will be found recorded. — E , B. Wkigglesworth, 6, Clarendon 

 Street, College Grove. 



A Correction. — The Mickley Ewynchuim striatulum recorded in the 

 May number of the Naturalist is a misnomer. Dr. Spruce does not agree 

 with Mr. Boswell, who thought the Mickley moss to be striatulum, but 

 says it is B. plumosum var. major. I may add that Dr. Spruce throws 

 doubt upon the Lincolnshire E. striatulum even being the true plant, but 

 this matter is as yet suh judice. — F. A. L., May 4th. 



Errata et Corrigenda. — In a report of a meeting of the Wakefield 

 Field Naturalists, p. 144, vol. v., (Edemera ccerulea, Linn., is mentioned 

 as having been captured at Wetherby by Mr. Roebuck. That gentleman 

 has kindly pointed out the error I made as to the locality, which should 

 have been Loversall Quarry, near Doncaster ; and as we all knOAv how 

 very desirable it is to have localities, when given, perfectly accurate, and 

 the above insect not being a plentiful species, I am anxious, for the benefit 

 of your readers who may be concerned, to correct the mistake. — Ed. B. 

 Wriggles WORTH, Wakefield. 



Correction. — I regret that the dried specimen named Zygodon 

 Nowellii, exhibited by me at Huddersfield Scientific Club, and reported 

 in last issue, p. 157, was not examined under the microscope previous to 

 its being recorded. A subsequent examination shows it to be only 

 Barhula recurvifolia. A note to the same effect has been received from 

 Mr. West, who gathered it, and from Mr. F. A. Lees. — C. P. Hobkirk.
