LOWE, AND OTHER SCOTTISH ENTOMOLOGISTS. WILLIAM BLACKWOOD AND SONS EDINBURGH AND LONDON MDCCCLIII 6,1/vfg PREFACE. THE following Catalogue has been undertaken, not solely with the view of recording some additions to the Insect Fauna of Scotland, but also with the intention of correcting the synonymy of some of the species which have been established on the authority of our great British Entomological authors, where subsequent investigations have shown that species have been improperly multiplied, or new names given to species already described. I have also wished to do something towards making our British Entomologists more familiar than they are with the names generally in use on the Continent. For these reasons I have made the following list a Synonymic Catalogue. I have adopted the arrangement of Redtenbacher, and I have done so notwithstanding some doubts of my own as to its superiority over Latreille's, partly in deference to the opinion which appears to be now generally entertained that it is the most natural, and partly because it comes nearest to that first developed and adopted by our own Stephens, and which is con- sequently already most in use in this country. As regards the synonymy of Continental authors, I have followed Gaubil's catalogue, unless in one or two instances where I had reason to suppose he was in error. As to the synonymy of species described by Mr Stephens, I have had the very great advantage of the free use of my friend Mr Little's M368B48 VI PREFACE. valuable cabinet, which, with few exceptions, had passed through the hands of Mr Stephens, and been almost entirely named by him. I had thus the advantage (second only to the use of Mr Stephens' own specimens) of examining what I may call types of his species. The distance of my place of residence from London rendered it impossible to avail myself with effect of the well-known liberality with which Mr Stephens gave access to his collection : and in estimating the value of any opinion expressed in the following pages upon the synonymy of any of his species, it must be borne in mind that I proceed upon nothing further than the testimony of species named by him ; and that, although in many instances I saw numerous series so named, I have not always found the whole of the series to con- sist of the same insect. I have further availed myself of Dr Schaum's two valuable papers on the synonymy of Mr Stephens' species of Geodephaga and Hydrocantharidse, published in the Annals of Natural His- tory and Zoologist, and of Mr Walton's papers on the Curcu- lionidsB in the Annals of Natural History. I have also been benefited by M. Jacquelin Duval's paper on the genus Bembi- dium, published in the Annals of the ^Entomological Society of France, and by his kindness in comparing my own specimens, and favouring me with his remarks upon them. To M. Aube", Paris, I owe similar thanks for having compared and authentically named my specimens of Cercyon, Anisotoma, Atomaria, and other minute and difficult genera ; also to M. Jekel, Paris, for having performed a similar good office to my Apions ; and to Professor Lacordaire of Liege, for having solved some doubts I had upon some of the Chrysomelidse. I have received similar kindness from Mr Wilson Saunders and Mr Jansen, Mr White of the British Museum, and Mr Walton of London ; and I owe much to the good offices of M. Javet of Paris. I need not make similar acknowledgments for the infor- mation derived from the works of Mulsant, Heer, Redtenbacher, others ; these are public property. PREFACE. Vii The whole of the Scottish Entomologists with whom I was acquainted, and several with whom I had no previous acquaint- ance, cordially aided me in making my list as complete as possible, by communicating to me their several captures. I owe special thanks to the Rev. William Little, Kirkpatrick- Juxta, Dumfriesshire, and to Mr Hardy, Penmanshiel, East Lothian, — the latter of whom was kind enough to undertake almost entirely for me the family of the Staphylinidse, to which (of the Coleoptera) he has more particularly directed his attention ; and that family will be found to show marks of the care and accuracy for which he is remarkable. I have had the list of species found near Edinburgh made much more complete than it had previously been, by the infor- mation communicated by Dr Greville, and his son, Mr R. N. Greville, Dr. Lowe, Balgreetf, Mr E-. F. Logan, Duddingstou, and Dr Howden, Musselburgh. My information as to the insects from Lanarkshire and the neighbourhood of Glasgow has been almost wholly received from Mr Hislop, now at Blairlodge, near Falkirk, but formerly resident in Glasgow, who was aided in his investigations in the west by Mr John Gray, and Dr Colquhoun. Mr Morris Young, Paisley, has also contributed notices of some valuable captures in his neighbourhood. Mr Hardy and Mr Hislop have added much to the list of species found in Berwickshire. East Lothian has also been thoroughly examined by Mr Hardy, a work in which he has been well aided by Mr Archibald Hep- burn, near Whittingham. The Aberdeenshire localities like- wise were mostly furnished by Mr Hardy. Mr John T. Syme, now in London, Professor Fleming, of the Free Church College, Edinburgh, Mr George A. Coventry, younger of Shanwell, and myself, have more particularly worked out Fife, Perth, Kinross, and Clackmannan ; and our knowledge of the insects of the eastern part of the first of these counties has been increased by the examination of a large collection made at St Andrews by Mr Harry Goodsir, one of the surgeons Vlll PREFACE. of the unfortunate expedition under Franklin, which his brother, Professor Goodsir, of the University of Edinburgh, kindly in- trusted to me for examination. Mr John T. Syme has also examined the Orkneys and the Island of Mull, the latter of which places has likewise been gone over by Mr Hislop and myself. My information as to Sutherland and Ross-shire has been principally derived from Mr James Wilson of Woodville, one of the authors of the Entomologia Edinensis, and from Mr Hors- burgh, Tongue House, and Mr Andrew Young, Bonar Bridge, Sutherland, who have been kind enough to cause collections to be made for me. To Mr Weaver of Birmingham, and Dr Nelson of Lytham, I owe the knowledge of some interesting novelties taken in their researches in the Black forest, Rannoch. Forfarshire has been most investigated by Dr Greville and myself; and Dumfriesshire has been made entirely his own by the Rev. Mr Little, to whom it will be seen we owe a very large proportion of the rarer Scottish captures. In the Catalogue I have appended the name of the captors of the insect to those species which have only been taken by one or two persons. I have not, in every instance, had the oppor- tunity of making sure, by personal inspection, that species com- municated to me are authentic, but in most instances I have done so; and where I have not, the collector whose name is appended stands responsible for its correctness.
