2 14 J. W. ELLIS: LIVERPOOL COLEOPTERA. 



MANTURA, Steph. 



Mantura rustica, L. New Brighton, May i860 (B. Cooke, diary); 

 Wallasey and Crosby (J.W.E.). 



PHYLLOTRETA, Fondr. 



Phyllotreta undulata, Kiitz. Abundant by road side sweeping (I 

 have not yet found the turnip-flea par excellence^ P. nemonan^ in 

 this district. Its place as a turnip-leaf feeder is probably 

 supplied here by the species under notice). 



Phyllotreta sinuata, Steph. I have met with this species at Brom- 

 borough and Leasowe. 



Phyllotreta tetrastigma, Com. Taken by myself at Leasowe, 

 October 1885. 



PLECTROSCELIS, Redt. 



Plectroscelis concinna, Marsh. Common by sweeping among road- 

 side herbage. 



THYAMIS, Steph. 



Thyamis lurida, Scop. Frequent by road-side sweeping at Spital, 



Bromborough, etc. 

 Thyamis fuscicoUis, Steph. I have taken this species at Aigburth 



and Spital. 



Thyamis melanocephala, Gyll. Wallasey (J.W.E.). 



(Thyamis cerina, Fondr. I have a specimen of a Thyamis which 

 I collected at Wallasey, and which I refer to this species, but 

 am not quite sure as to the correctness of my diagnosis.) 



Thyamis tabida, Panz. ( =jacob8ea, W.C.). Very abundant on the 

 Crosby and Wallasey sand-hills, on ragwort. 



Thyamis ochroleuca, Marsh. Hightown, a single specimen only. 



PSVLLIODES, Latr. 

 Psylliodes chrysocephala, L. Crosby. 



Psylliodes marcida, 111. I have taken this species on several 



occasions by sweeping at Wallasey. 

 Psylliodes cupro-nitens, Forst. Wallasey, a single specimen only. 

 Psylliodes affinis, Payk. Usually abundant on the Hightown and 



Wallasey sandhills. 

 Psylliodes picina, Marsh. I took this species freely on a single 



occasion at Formby.
