NOTES ON THE ENTOMOLOGY OF PORTUGAL. 
II. PSE U D O-NE Ull OP TER A (in part) & NE UR OPTERA-PLAKIPENNIA 
BY R. McLACHLAN, F.R.S., &c. 
As a first instalment toward the working-out of the materials 
collected in Portugal by the Rev. A. E. Eaton — who published Intro- 
ductory Notes on his tour in the last No. of this Magazine (pp. 73 — 
79), — I submit a List of certain of the Neuroptera. The Planipennia 
are complete, but the P seudo-JSTeuroptera yet want the portions relating 
to the Perlidce and Eph enter idee, which will probably be furnished 
hereafter (either wholly or in part) by Mr. Eaton himself. The 
TricJioptera (which formed by far the bulk of the collection) are so 
rich in new forms, that it may probably be found impossible for them 
to appear in this series of notes in the first instance, but a List, with 
localities, &c., will be hereafter given, so as to maintain the uniformity 
of the series. 
Mr. Eaton attended only very casually to the insects treated upon 
in this paper, but the discoveries are valuable, for, with the exception 
of some of the Odonata (of which De Selys indicated 17 species as 
Portuguese in 1850, most of which are not the same as those here 
enumerated), almost everything here is noticed as Portuguese for the 
first time. Perhaps the most interesting are Myopsocus Eatoni , Gom- 
phus Graslini, Amph iceschna Irene , and Sisyra Dalii , the first especially, 
as adding a genus to the European Fauna. 
PSEUDO-NEUROPTERA. 
TERMITIDiE. 
Termes lucifugus , Rossi. — One winged $ found drowning in a 
reservoir at Cintra, 27th April, the only winged Termes seen during the 
tour. Also soldier and larva found under a stone at the foot of a 
chestnut tree at Ponte de Morcellos, the only occasion upon which 
apterous forms were noticed. 
PSOCID7E. 
Myopsocus Eatoni , n. sp. 
Head yellowish-grey, rather thickly spotted with deep black, the ocelli placed 
in a larger black spot, front with somewhat undulating deep black longitudinal lines, 
closely placed, those in the middle shorter than the others ; labrum blackish, with 
a central yellowish spot. Antenn* whitish-yellow, pilose, the apex of each joint 
more distinctly whitish, preceded by a broad ante-apical black band. Palpi blackish, 
with pale rings. Thorax and abdomen fuscescent, varied with yellowish (or vice 
versa). Legs yellowish : cox* blackish ; trochanters with a fuscous mark ; femora 
fuscescent or blackish externally, with indications of two maeulose ante-apical black
