THE ENTOMOLOGIST’S WEEKLY INTELLIGENCER. 
liydridous Berosus spinosus (so common 
at the Lymington salterns) may be looked 
for. Ponds, likewise, on open heaths, 
should be carefully searched ; the Agabits 
chalconotus and the H. Gyllenhalii and 
Jlavipes, often teem in them ; whilst simi- 
lar localities in woods (in which decaying 
leaves are apt to accumulate) are fre- 
quently alive w'ith the H. Memnonius 
and tristis, aud sometimes also the an- 
gustatus. - 
The streams in mountain countries 
are, in like manner, productive, albeit in 
their own way. Thus, in the south-west 
of Ireland, the H. picipes, alpinus and 
scilulus and the Haliplus cinereus and 
Jluviatilis, abound everywhere; and in 
the rivers of North Wales the H. sep- 
tentrionalis is equally common ; whilst 
in the loftier districts of Scotland, the 
H. halensis , Davisii and Q-lineatus (which 
last, however, has singularly enough, 
been taken also in the famous Woolmer 
Pond in Hampshire) occur; as also the 
Colymbetes arcticus and the Dyticus 
Lnpponicus , — the second of which was 
first detected by the Rev. Hamlet Clark 
in the Island of Mull. 
And so it is with other districts, the 
various species which they contain being 
more or less regulated by the soil and 
altitude which marks each separate spot. 
We need not therefore add more. Let 
the collector only buckle to in real ear- 
nest, and we will venture to say that he 
will not be wanting in success wheresoever 
his energies are directed.
