THE ENTOMOLOGISTS WEEKLY INTELLIGENCER, 
account for this “locality?” — J ohn 
Garland, F.L.S., Dorchester ; Aug. 12. 
Sirex Giyas. — On the 30th ultimo 
was captured a fine Sirex Giyas , Linn. 
It entered an upper room through an 
open window, a short distance from this 
neighbourhood. Its sudden appearance, 
with its bold and noisy flight, and formi- 
dable ovipositor, caused not a little diffi- 
culty in securing it without injury ; this, 
however, was effected, and it was kindly 
presented to me alive and in good condi- 
tion. To the above record, I may men- 
tion that one of the same species was 
captured in August, last year, in the 
central part of the city, entering a 
building in a similar manner, through 
an open window, but was brought to me 
much mutilated from the rough way it 
was taken and secured. — T. Tidemore,
