288 mason : Lincolnshire hemiptera-heteroptera. 



BERYTID/E. 



Berytus pygmaeus Reut. Mumby Chapel ] land-foot of sand- 

 hills amongst moss; abundant in one spot, August 1887. 



LYG^ID^. 



Scolopostethus adjunctus D. & S. Well; some, August 13th, 

 1887 (Charles O. Waterhouse). It would appear that this is 

 the ' affinis ' of continental authors, but further discussion and 

 comparison of specimens is needed before the matter can be 

 considered as settled. Meanwhile I should be glad of specimens 

 of any of the genus for comparison with those of the Alford 

 district.
