THE ENTOMOLOGIST’S WEEKLY INTELLIGENCER, 
not succeeded in turning up any more. 
This wood, if well searched, would, I am 
certain, prove productive of many local 
insects. Sirex Gigas has been taken 
there, some years ago, and other good 
species. 
I was anxious this year to take dupli- 
cates of Hylobia Abietis, but was only 
successful in procuring two specimens ; 
it occurs commonly in Northumber- 
land. 
The question “ as to whether one spe- 
cies of Pulex is parasitic on more than one 
animal?” is, I suppose, still unsettled. 
I find one’s relations will not believe the 
contrary assertion. 
Last autumn I amused myself by 
searching seed-heads in search of larvae ; 
the whole of my captures were dipterous. 
One species {Phytomyza Plantaginis P) 
seems to be extremely abundant in dock 
leaves in September; a second (Cecido- 
myia JacobeceP) feeds within the seed- 
heads of the ragwort; and a third 
{Cecidomyia Syngenesice P) feeds in the 
seed-heads of Chrysanthemum leucan- 
themum. 
The dipteron Scatophaga Ceparum, 
Kirby and Spence, still makes ravages 
among the onions. It is difficult to rear, 
and the onion has not the most agreeable 
scent, so that I failed in rearing it.
