appears in May, and occurs not unfirequently on 
dry heaths, commons, &c. Near London, at Dart-

been observed in plenty ; as well as in more north- 
ern localities, particularly heaths in the vicinity of 
Newcastle and York. We have likewise seen ex-

and it occurred near Tain and Cromarty, in June 
1834, in considerable abundance ; so that its range 
in Britain, from north to south, is -widely extended.
