PHALACRIDiE. 
Perris (L’Ab, vii. p. 86) considers the vermiform larym found by F. Loew 
in blossoms of Podospermum as belonging to a Chironomus (Z)yj^.), and not, 
as supposed, to Olibrus bicolor. The same author (Ann. Soc. Ent. Fr. 4° ser. 
ix. pp. 464-466) supplements and corrects the observations of Ileeger and 
Laboulbene upon the larva of Olibrus affinisy and records his own expe- 
riences as regards the larvae of O. mithemidisy 'tnillefoliiy particepSy and 
pygmceus.

NiTIDULIDiE. 
Perris (L’Ab. vii. p. 36) notes the larvae of Brachypterus linarice as feed- 
ing on Jlow&i's of Lmaria striatUy and those of B. cinerem on flowers of L. 
sicpina and L. spartea } and thinks Kaltenbach most probably wrong in 
stating that the larva of B. yravidus feeds on capsidcs of a Linaria, 
SoLSKY (Bull. Mosc. xlii. p. 467) shows by dates of publication that Niti- 
dula eleganSy Stierl., = Zoubk., = fustday Gebl., which should be used 
(pf. Zool. llec. vi. p. 237). 
Baudi (B. E. Z. xiv. p. 60, note) records Pria pallidulay Er., from flowers of 
Chamceropis humilis in Sardinia.
