LOO LIVERPOOL BIOLOGICAL SOCIETY. 
Pterostichus diligens, Sturm. Common, especially on 
the banks of the Alt at Hightown. 
Pterostichus vitreus, Dej. Recorded from Raby Mere 
and Sutton, by Mr. Gregson; but I think there must be 
some mistake here, as the species is a truly mountain one. 
Pterostichus madidus, F. Abundant. 
Pterostichus striola, FE. Common beneath garden refuse. 
Stomis pumicatus, Panz. Common and generally distri- 
buted. 
Amara fulva, De Geer. Occasionally under stones on 
the shore, more frequently than elsewhere at Aigburth. 
Amara apricaria, Payk. Common, especially in moss 
during the winter. 
Amara spinipes, L. A nocturnal species, frequently 
taken by evening sweeping. Mr. Kinder used to take it in 
profusion, about Kirkdale, by examining thistle flowers at 
night with a lantern. 
Amara fusca, De}. Mr. Wilding had the good fortune to 
capture a specimen of this rare species several years ago 
at West Derby, among Amara apricaria. 
Amara bifrons, Gyll. Mr. Kinder found this species in 
abundance, in August, 1879, in (at ?) the roots of wild 
chamomile, near the Canada Dock Goods Station; also on 
the flowers at night. I have two specimens, one taken 
at Crosby and one at Caldy. 
Amara rufocincta, Dej. Mr. Wilding has this species 
from Crosby, and I took a specimen last August (1887), by 
sweeping herbage near Lydiate. 
Amara lucida, Dufts. Common on the sandhills on both 
sides of the river, in spring. : 
Amara tibialis, Payk. Common on the Wallasey and 
Crosby sandhills, in spring. 
Amara famliaris, Dufts. Abundant.
