species of Caddis-flies. Trans. Ent. Soc. London, 3rd 
series, vol. v. pp. 1-184, plates 1-14 (October 1865). 
A most admirable monograph of the British Trichoptera^ exe- 
cuted with the greatest care, and illustrated by a vast number of 
figures, chiefly drawn by the author, showing the peculiarities 
of the parts relied on as generic and specific characters. The 
number of known British species is stated by the author at 1,26. 
Stephens described 183 ; but these were reduced by Hagen to 108. 
The number of genera adopted is 43.

This memoir consists of a list of the species of Trichoptera ob- 
served by the author in Upper Bavaria, with descriptions of 
their larvae and cases. The total number of species referred to 
is 52. The nomenclature adopted is that of Kolenati ; but it does 
not appear that in all, or indeed in most instances the cases and 
larvffi are attributed to the different species in consequence of 
the author^s having bred the perfect insects from them. 
Hagen publishes (Stett. ent. Zeit. pp. 228-230) from Bremi’s manuscripts, 
with some additions, a catalogue of the Neuroptera and pseudo-Neuroptera 
observed in the neighbourhood of Zurich. The total number of species re- 
corded is 78, of which 19 belong to the former, and 69 to the latter group. 
The true Neuroptera belong to the families Sialidce (2 sp.), HemerohiidcB 
(10 sp.), Mynndeontid<B (2 sp.), and Panorpid(B (5 sp.), the latter including 
3 species (variahilis, punctata, and impunctatd) separated by Bremi. The ad- 
dit'on of 64 species of Phryffanidee makes the total number of Neuroptera 
found in the vicinity of Zurich 142. 
Hagen has published (Ent. M. Mag. vol. ii.) an enumeration of the species 
of this order hitherto found in Madeira, chiefly from Wollaston’s collections. 
The following families only are represented ; — Ilemerohiidce (G sp.) and Phry- 
yanidee (8 sp.). 
MYRMELEONTIDiE. 
Two species of Ant-lions, M. altcrnans (Brulld) and M. catta (Fab.) are 
fully described from Madeiran specimens by Hagen, Ent. M. Mag. ii. p. 61. 
MLachlan describes the habits of Mynneleon fonnicarius as observed by 
him in some specimens brought to London from Fontainebleau. Ent. M. 
Mag. ii. pp. 73-76.
