* Litargus hifasciatus F. A specimen of this rare insect was taken under 

 bark at Cotting-ham about six years ag^o by Mr, Stainforth, Its 

 identity was established in time for the record to appear in the 

 'Victoria History of Yorkshire,' but it seems advisable to record it 

 here also. It has also been taken by Dr. Corbett in Wheatley Wood. 

 These are the most northerly records for this species.

The initials attached to the various records are those of 

 H. H. Corbett, M.R.C.S., E. \N. Morse, T. Stainforth, and 

 M. L. Thompson, F.E.S. It will be seen from the above list 

 that notwithstanding the generally disappointing weather 

 experienced during the year, the results are by no means 

 discouraging. To be able to record sixteen additions to the 

 •county list, and an extended distribution of thirteen others, is 

 t)oth satisfactory and stimulating. 







Part XI. of the new series of the Bradford Antiquary, the journal of the 

 Bradford Historical and Antiquarian Society, has been issued under the able 

 •editorship of Prof. Federer. As a frontispiece is a portrait of the late V\m. 

 Cudworth, which is accompanied by an appreciative notice of his work, by 

 the editor. There is also a bibliog^raphy of Cudworth's publications, from 

 which, however, an interesting- item is omitted. This was a note on 

 ' Carboniferous Veg-etation at Bradford,' and appeared in this journal for 

 July, 1903. A paper by the Bradford City Librarian, Mr. Butler Wood, is 

 •on 'The Bradford Newspaper press.' From the early issues of some of the 

 Bradford papers Mr. Wood g-ives some curious quotations. Mr. H. F. 

 Killick writes on the ' Duchy of Lancaster and the Manor of Bradford ' ; 

 Prof. Federer deals with the 'West Riding- Cartulary' ; Mr. W. Scruton 

 has an article on ' Baildon, Ancient and Modern' ; Mr. T. T. Empson g-ives 

 extracts from the Burial Reg^ister of Bradford Parish Church ; and the 

 Editor has a paper on 'Robin Hood, Mj'th or History." The Bradford 

 Antiquaries are to be congratulated on their publication, which, it is hoped, 

 may continue for some time to come. The great value of the papers printed 

 lis their local character.
