In the Author s and other Cabinets.
The sexes of Coccus are so dissimilar, that nothing but rear-
ing them from the parent would convince any one of their
identity. The male is small but winged, sometimes liaving
ten eyes : it is deprived of a proboscis, but is capable of loco-
motion: the female is often ten times as large, immovable,
formed like a scale or fleshy, and clothed with cotton, having a
longish proboscis ; and so great a variety is there in the struc-
ture of the species, that Sig. Costa has proposed 3 genera, and
1 doubt not many more will be necessary when the group is
investigated. The oeconomy of the valuable Cochineal insect
being well known, I shall prefer giving the history of C. Ace-
7is, with which ]VIr. \\'estwood has favoured me, together
with males of the insect.
" My specimens of this species," he says, "have been ob-
tained from a young plant of Acer Pseudo-plat anus., growing in
a very confined situation at Kensington. The males make their
appearance in the winged state in the month ol' May, when the
impregnation of the female takes place in the singular manner
described by Reaumur (v. 4). The males on emerging from
their singular cocoons escape backwards, iJie wings being ex-
tended flatly over the head. By the end of June the females
have attained their full gravid size, and on lifting up their bo-
dies, their whole interior is occupied by white flowery-like mat-
ter, in which the minute young are to be observed, of the size
of a small dot. In this state they are hexapod and antennife-
rous, active, and furnisheti with '2 elongated anal seta". Bv
the end of July the young cjuit the body of their parent, and
ascend to the extremity ot the young branches ; there they
affix themselves, gradually increasing in size, and losing tlie
anal setaj as well as their former activity. In this state they re-
main through the winter, without any diversity of apjiearance
indicative of the sexes, and it is not until the following April
that this is first perceived by the further increased growth of
the females, and by the males assuming the pupa state. The
female when full grown has the appearance of a large shining
warty excrescence, without any trace of segments. They are
much infested by Chalcidideous parasites, several species of
which belong to a tlistinct genus, intermediate between En-
a/rtus and Euluphus, which I have describeil uniler the name
of Coccop/ia<j,us."
As the Cocci generally kill the plants on which they live,
those that infest the vine, pine-apple, &c. do great mischief in
liot-houses, where congenial heat, and the absence probably of
those parasites which in the native countries of those {plants
kee|) them in check, contribute to their rapid proj)agation, if
j)roper care be not taken to destroy them when they first make
their a|)pearance.

I CONSIDKK iliis i,Moup iiioie nearly allied to Ps_vlla(rol. 565.)
ill the Ibriiiatioii ot the heail and rostrum than the Cinarae are ;
and whatever may be the allinilies of Tlirips, it ceitainly must
not separate these two groups, which it does in my Guide,
where I adopted the views and arrangement of Latreille.
I must observe that I have ilescribed the wingeil specimens
as males, ant! the ajiterous as females ; but as 1 iiave detected
the horny })rocess beneath the ajiex in both, and in the same
species, I am not confident that niy fig. F is a female, neither
have I been able to identify the species.
The following insects belong, I believe, to this genus; they
inhabit the plants after which they are named, and I have re-
ferred, as far as I am able, to figures and description^ of them.

There is no insect that does more mischief in this country,
and causes a greater loss of property, than the Aphides, or
plant-lice, for not only is the beauty of our gardens defaced
and the loveliest flowers destroyed, but the most promising
crops are rendered unproductive through the agency of one
of these little animals, the Hop-fly.
The Aphides are very remarkable in their ceconomy, and
their increase is almost marvellous : the female is sometimes
oviparous, but more generally viviparous, and frequently pro-
duces young wiiliout associating with the male, and in this
way, according to Bonnet, they have multiplied for nine ge-
nerations in the space of three months : it is also said by one
observer in the Ent. Mug., that female Hop-flies sometimes
produce "vcinged individuals. By this rapid succession we may
frequently see at the same period, on a single leaf, larvre of
every size, the pupa^, winged males and apterous females, their
exuviae, and the shells of those that are pierced by parasites,
which together render the sweetest plants offensive both to
the touch and sight.
The greatest mischief, however, arises from their exhausting
the plant. I once observed some Aphides upon a Sonchus ;
they were all sucking it: the females were of various sizes, and
the winged males had their proboscis thrust its whole length
into the stalk and calyx, and the punctures they had made
were indicated by the sap exuding and becoming dark as it
hardened over the wounds after the insects had left the spot.
Fortunately for man, no insect has more enemies than the
Aphides : the most conspicuous amongst them are the larvae
of the Chrijsnpa (pi. 520), the Lady-bird {Cocciuella, pi. ^SS),
and of a beautiful fly {Scccva Fijraslri, fol. 509.), which revel
amongst their helpless victims until they are transformed into
pupa; but besides these, there are minute parasites which are
not less useful in keeping the Aphides within bounds, amongst
them are Ceraphron Carpentcri (fol. 249.), Cj/r/ogaster i^ilgaris
(Guide, Gen. G24'.), Cijiiips crythrucephalus^ and the Aphidii
(pi. 383). Tiiese Hymenoptera (the last of which have been
investigated and described by Mr. Ilaliday in the Ent. Mag.,)
generally deposit their eggs in the larva.' or pupie of the Aphi-
des, which then assume an opake and horny ap}>earance; and
when the imago escapes, a hole is visible on the side, sometimes
with the ojierculum attached, and open like a door.
The Aphides have also the singular property of producing
the saccharine matter called Honey-dew, that exudes in glo-
bules from the tubes attached to the bodies of many species,
and it is this deposit which the Ants are so I'ond of
From a careful investigation of these insects, I find they
may be very easily, and, 1 may add, usefully formed into two
genera, the CiNARii;, with antennae shorter than the body:
proboscis as long as the body, at least in the males, and project-
ing immediately from the clypeus ; with the collar short in the
males. Nos. 20 to 30 enumerated in the Guide, with the ex-
ception of No. 29, belong to this genus. Both sexes of the
species figured I have found in Darent Wood and the New
Forest, the beginning of June, on Oaks.
The others, which may be considered the typical Aphides,
I shall illustrate in the following jilate; they are characterized
by antenuic longer than the boily : proboscis nmch shorter,
especially in the winged males, and arising between the ante-
rior coxiL" : the collar long in the males.
The Plant is TriJ'olium at-vense (Hare's-foot Trefoil).

DisPAR Hal. Ent. Mag. 3. 449.— Cwr^ Guide, Gen. 1048. 24,
Male black, shining : antennae 8-jointed ? apex indistinctly ar-
ticulated : head ovate, truncated behind : thorax suborbicular,
sides foveolated : wings small ovate, whitish : antennae and
legs pale ochre, basal and 2 apical joints of former, thighs and

rior with a brown fascia across the middle, and an equal por-
tion of the apex of the same colour : legs yellowish, thighs and
apex of tarsi piceous, base of tibiae brownish.
The genus Thrips of Linne has given rise to as great a variety
of opinions regarding its affinities, as Stylops ; but after all
tliat has been adduced respecting its aUiance to the Ortho-
ptera, Neuroptera, &;c., I have not the least hesitation in adopt-
ing the opinion of Mr. Haliday, who lias established it as a
distinct order. The setiform mandibles show that Thrips
belongs to the Hausteilatii?, and its rostriform tropin undoubt-
edly indicate a near relationship to the Homoptera, in which
order Psylla (pi. 565) seems to make the nearest approach to
it. The trophi are similarly situated at the extremity of tiie
face, close to the anterior coxa^ : it has a borer composed of
four pieces, and the tarsi are biarticulate. One of the maxil-
lary palpi was bent back in the specimen I dissected, which
might be an accidental position, for I could not discover the
other. Fig. g. represents a piece which projected from be-
neath the labrum, which seems to have its analogue in the
Tettigonidai {pi. 633. g.).
These insects live upon the juices of plants, and probably
on the pollen, for every flower sometimes swarms with them.
It is the Thrips which causes an intolerable irritation of the
face, when it runs and leaps with its bladder-shaped feet over
the skin, throwing up its head and twisting about its tail to
ojien or close its wings. ]\Iinute as they are they do very
great injury to various crops. T. jjJnjsapus of Kirby, L. cc-
realiuni, Hal. is the insect which, by attacking the wheat
stems above the knot occasions abortive ears. " In the year
1805," observes Mr. Haliday, "one third of the wheat crop
in the richest plains of Piedmont is said to have been destroyed
bv this seemingly insimiificant little insect." We also iearn
from Professor Passerini, that the olives of Italy are greatly
injured by a species of Thrips, which fixes itself under the
leaves. The rye-spikes also in IScotland, infested by some of
these insects, are stated to become unprolilic.
I must refer to I\Ir. Haliday's invaluable memoir for cha-
racters of the families, genera, and species, a list of which will
be found in the Guide, and 1 can only avail myself of that
portion of his synoptic table which comprises the genus Thrips
as restricted by him.

This singular little insect is nearest related to Psylla ; but the
form of the head, the prothorax, and antennas, will show that
it was necessary to separate it from that group.
Not having living specimens, I was unable to discover the
mandibles and maxiilte, but Latreille says they {les soies) ap-
peared to him very long ; neither could I ascertain whether
the curious spine shown at fig. 6f. was attached to the post-
pectus or the coxaj ; but I am inclined to think to tlie latter.
I discovered, however, that the tarsi consisted of 3 joints, and
not of 2, as hitherto stated.
In our excursion last July to Bottisham Fen, Prof. Henslow
pointed out to me the singular appearance of the Juncus, as
represented in our plate, and informed me that it was occa-
sioned by the Livia Junconun ; and on opening the tuft we
fountl the larva? and pupa? in some abundance. As Latreille
was the first historian of our insect, and gave a very excellent
memoir upon it, I shall give some of his remarks upon its
occonomy. lie ini'orms us, that "the i'emales deposit their
eggs in the flowers of the ,7////c/« ar/iculatus (pi. 2.), or at least
in their shoots. The sap of the plant repairing to these parts
in greater abundance, it forms there a monstrosity, which has
the apjiearance of a bundle of grass. The divisions of the
calyx are elongated into a sort of barb or awn. The eggs are
few in number, tolerably large, oval, yellowish, shining, marked
with a red dot at one end, and attached to the leaves by a pe-
dicel. The Larvae, as well as the Pupa?, move slowly. They
live constantly inclosed in the interior of these false galls, sup-
porting themselves on the juice of the plant, and voiding a fa-
rinaceous matter very white, in the midst of which they seem
to delight in living. The jierfect insect also remains there
very {|uietly, and, like the other Psyllidae, it jumps more than
it walks."
The coloured Plant is Lathynis i)alustris (Marsh Vetch-
ling).

Of this family we have aheady figured the other two genera,
Livia (pi. 4-92) and Psylla (pi. 565), which Livilla connects,
its coriaceous elytra and stoutish legs agreeing with the former,
but making a nearer approach to the latter in the form of the
head and proportions of the antenna\
For specimens of this new and curious little insect I am in-
debted to Mr. Dale, by whom they were discovered upon Furze-
bushes and grass the 28th June in Mr. Webb's plantation,
Annis, West Camel, Somerset, and the following day in plenty
on Iligham Hill, near Breach Wood, Langport, in the same
county. This insect has the power of jumping like the rest of
the family, and I have observed that the Psyllae expand their
winjjs on such occasions.
The Plant is Avcna {Trisetum Vers.) pubescenSf Downy Oat.

In the Author's and other Cabinets.
Psylla is a very numerous genus, which has been but httle
attended to. Linnaeus only gives their names, which, hke the
Aphides, are for the most part derived from the plants that
they inhabit. Many species in their larvae and pupse states
are clothed with a white fleecy and cottony substance, and
their excrement forms threads or masses of a glutinous and
sweet nature. The perfect insects jump when disturbed, in
wliicli the authors oi" the Int. to Ent. think they are assisted
by the short spines attached to the hiniier coxa?. One of the
most remarkable appearances in this group is the singukar
situation of the rostrum or promuscis as it is called, which
seems to spring from ihe breast, in consequence of the face
being obIi(jue, and tlie head so closely united to the antepectus
as to render their separation diflicult.
Latreille says that some species in piercing vegetables in
order to suck the sap, cause in parts, especially on the leaves
and buds, monstrosities like galls in appearance. Both lleau-
mur and DeCicer have illustrated this group, and the list in
my Ciuide will be found in Gmelin's Syst. Nat.
5. P. Pyri Limi.—DcG. v. 3, pi. 9./. 1 — 16.
The following accurate observations in a letter I received
from T. A. Knight, Esq., of Downton, seem to apply to this
species. " Tiie insect first appears in April and ]\Iay, soli-
tarily on the lower surfaces of the leaves in the Pear, inclosed
in a globule of honey, and subsecjuently retires to the bases
of the leaves and dej)osits much honey upon the buds. The
gardener is first made acquainted with its presence by the
number of Humble-bees which are attracted by its lioncy, but
in a short time the tlimini><hed growth of the iiuit and the
sickly appearance of the ibliage point out to him the injurious
operation of his minute enemy."

Maculipennis Curt. Guide, Gen. 1051'', 3.
Mr. Lewis established this group under the name it now
bears in the Trans, of the Ent. Soc. The males are well
cliaracterized by their remarkable clubbed antennae, and both
sexes differ from all allied genera by the broad and long
membranous margins of the elytra, which lap over each other
when they are closed. One species is very remarkable for
the incrassated and somewhat serrated costa, which is peculiar
to the male ; the small seta at the apex of the club of the an-
tennae also varies considerably, being short and elongate-tri-
gonate in some, whilst in others it is a fine and longer bristle.
The following species are contained in my own Cabinet,
and the 3 Fabrician names included in this genus in my
Guide, must, I expect, be removed from thence.

The genus Amblycephalus, which I described three years
since in the Entomological Magazine, belongs to that division
of Tettigonidje which has long bristly hind legs, and is sepa-
rated from neighbouring groups by its subtrigonate but rounded
head : from Eupteryx it is at once distinguished by its ocelli,
which are absent in that genus, and generally it differs also in
its more robust form and shorter wings, which do not cover
the apex of the abdomen in the typical sjiecies, and these are
further marked by the elevated anchor-shaped lines on the
fore j)art ot the head. Although the following species vary
considerably in their form, yet thev all agree in having two
ocelli behind the anterior margin of the head, but they are
more remote and placed further behind in some than in others.
a. Ocelli remote, placed on each side of the crown of the head.
1. A. viridis Linn. — Panz. 32. 9. — Length 5 lines.
Elytra green or bluish, head yellow spotted with black.
May to August, grassy places and aquatic plants, England ; beginning of
August, marshy places by the side of Loch Fad, &'C., Isle of Bute.
h. Ocelli less remote and placed more forward.
2. interruptus Linn. — DcGccr 3. tab. 12. f. 6 — \0.—Panz.

marks on the crown, and numerous black lines across the face, a line
of black dots near the anterior margin of the thorax : scutellum orange
with a black cross and several spots : thighs piceous, tips ochreous, pos-
terior tibia- with the inner margin piceous, the outer one dotted with
the same and their tarsi piceous, excepting the base and apex. — Obs.
some specimens are almost destitute of black markings, excepting the
tibiae.

In the Cabinets of Mr. Dale and the Author.
This group, which formed the 2nd division of my genus
Aphrodes, appears to be synonymous with Germar's Acuce-
phalus. It is at once distinguished from Tettigonia, which it
very much resembles, by the long sphied hinder tibiae, from
Aml)lycephaliis by the shape of the clypeus, and from other
neighbouring groups by the ibrni of tlie head, which is Hke
tliat of EupeHx, but much less developed.
The following descriptions will serve to characterize some
of our species.
1. Cardui Curt. ? 3^ lines long: dull ochreous, inclining to ferrugi-
nous or olive, more or less freckled with brown nervures, irregularly
marked with brown ; a black spot on each side the parapleurae ; the

an oblong scarlet spot on each side the scutellum, another some-
what rounded one on the disc of each, and a 3rd large lunulate

scarlet as well as the base.
In the Author s and other Cabinets.
The species just described is the only one that inhabits Bri-
tain ; yet the C. sanguinolenta has always been recorded as
such ; and to prevent further confusion I shall here charac-
terize it.
1. C. sanguinolenta Linn. S. N. 2. 708. 22. — Ahr./as. 4^. t. 20.
Scarcely so large as No. 2, black, elytra with a long scarlet
spot at the base of each, a round one on the disc and a narrow
lunulate one towartls the apex: abdomen red, banded beneath
with bhick, and a row of red spots on each siile of the same
colour; apex of thighs and base of tibiae red.
I took specimens of this insect, which is not found in the
North of Europe, at Nismes and Montpellier.
Linna-His's description oi' C.sanguinolenla is so characteristic,
that it is surprising how the two species could have been con-
founded ; but Fabricius having once made the error, it lias
been echoed by every compiler since, from Dr. Turton to Mr.
Stephens. The species were separated by Rossi, and were first
recorded as distinct in my Guide.*
•2. C. vulnerata Eossi. — Curt. Brit. Ent. pi. 461.
Taken in various parts of England in June and July, gene-
rally upon the Fern ; but it also frequents grass, the Alder and
Sallow. It is not uncommon in open places in the New Forest
and Darent Wood. Mr. Dale takes it at Glanville's Wootton ;
and Mr. Denny has captured a variety near Cambridge, I un-
derstand.
The Plant is Lijcnpus curopiTus (Water Ilorehound).
* As there is space for an observation or two, I wish in justice to myself
to state, that I am preparing a second edition of my Guide, which cannot
fail to resemble Mr. Stephens's Nomenclature, for this palpable reason, —
that he has not contented himself with correcting it from my Guide, and
copying column after column from it, but he has actually adopted the style
and |ilan of my work : so that his book now hears the exact resemblance
of mine, and is rather a second edition of my Guide than of his Nomencla-
ture ; — a very modest act for one who has brought an action against another
for the same trespass!
I may add, that when I began my Guide, Mr. Stephens, I believe, had
no idea of printing a Nomenclature; I therefore could have no intention
of interfering with his undertaking ; and in truth my little Guide could
not affect the sale of his ponderous Catalogue, and that was not published
when the first sheet of the Guide appeared.
From the assistance promised me by some of our ablest entomologists,
I hope to make the second edition of my Guide much better than that pa-
rasite which has been grafted upon it, and to render it by far the most
useful and complete Catalogue of British bisects that has ever appeared.

culation at the base, the apex subhyaline, nervures more or less
brown ; inferior wings pale fuscovis, the nervures brown, and
sometimes a portion of the wings next the abdomen ; tibiae,
especially the hinder, dotted with black.

Of all the strange forms we meet with in the Insect world,
there are none more singular and grotesque than those which
are to be found in the groups allied to the insect before us.
Ledra even is remarkable for its shovel-head and two ear-
shaped appendages on its back ; characters which readily di-
stinguish it from Cercopis (pi. -IGl), a genus which Latreille
placed next to it ; and from the Membraces, of which Ceutrotus
forms a part, it is separated by its simjily truncated thorax,
which is elongated into a tail in the Membraces (vide pi. '313.).
Our species is the only one of the genus, 1 believe, and it is
by no means a common insect : Mr. Samouelle states that they
" inhabit the oak and various trees in woods." I have gene-
rally found them upon oaks in June and July, but only in Ua-
rent Wood. Mr. Dale has met with it I believe in Hamp-
shire, and I have a pupa that he gave me which considerably
resembles the perfect insect in colour and the form of the head,
but the auriculate lobes are not developed, they are merely in-
dicated by 2 raised carina^; the elytra are short and applied
close to the sides ; and the abdomen is somewhat depressed,
with the margin round the apex dilated, crenated, thin, and
horny.
Whether these insects live in their early stages in the frothy
secretions that envelop those of kindred genera 1 am igno-
rant, being unacquainted with their ccconomy.
The perfect insect is represented of its natural size at fig.N
with its wings closed, and in Kirby and Spence's Introduction
to Entomology there is a coloured figure of it in a similar po-
sition.
The Plant is Ccntajirca Calcitrapa, Common Star Thistle.

In the Author's and other Cabinets.
Of all Nature's works, amongst the insect tribes, this family is
the most remarkable lor the grotesque and extraordinary forms
the species exhibit ; the thorax being produced in the shape of
horns of the most whimsical figures and in various directions ;
sometimes projecting over the head like a helmet, at others
forming a tail, which looks quite artificial, and again assuming
the characters of ears or the horns of animals. Some of these
prodigies are represented in the 18th Plate of Coquebert's
Illustrations, in the 4th vol. of Germar's Magazine, and I
think in the Magazine of Natural History.
In essential characters Centrotus nearly resembles the true
Cicada?; and for what reason the only two species that inhabit
Britain should have been lately placed in two distinct genera,
it is difficult to discover, since the differences between them
are such as are entirely specific. Indeed we have none of the
true Membraces of Fabricius in Britain : they are at once
characterized by their compressed form, some of them being
so much flattened that they appear as if they had been pressed
by some accident; and it is even difficult to pass a pin through
them vertically.
Latreille formerly united Centrotus with Membracis, but
lie has since separated them. Fabricius in the Sj/sfetna Itht/n-
gotorum has included both our British species in his genus
Centrotus; and to render this subject more complete, I shall
proceed to describe the type.

Delphax is distinguished from Asiraca (pi. 44-5) by the short
basal joint of the antennae, and from my genus Criomorphus by
its ample wings. A species figured and described by Mr. West-
wood in the 6th vol. of Loudon's Mag. Nat. Hist, under the
name of D. saccharivora is very destructive to the sunrar-cane
in the West Indies. The l"ollo\vin<r are Britislj examples of
the genus, and most of them frequent the borders of rivers and
brooks,

I fear it will be necessary to divide these neighbouring groups
considerably, for if we take the D. clavicornis and minuta Fab.
as types of Asiraca and Delphax, the former distinguished by
the length of the basal johit of the aiUenmr, the latter by its
shortness, we shall find a «);reat number of species that difier
very materially from ihem: the insect figured for instance has
the antennte and head of A.siraca, but die neuration of the wings
and the form of the legs agree better with Delphax, as do
those also of A. dubia : it will therefore form a very good sub-
genus, being distinguished from die type A. davicornis by its
simple anterior legs, and a great dissimilarity in the superior
and the ample size of the inferior wings; the 2 first joints of
the antenna- are also of nearly ecjual Inigth : another group I
have lately characterized in the Entomological Magazine un-
der the name of Criomoij)hus.
In dissecting these insects I discovered on each side the
labrum, or rather perhaps the clypeus, an acuminated horny
lobe: they covered apparently the base of the mandibles or
maxilUv, and are common to the insects of this division.
The following species have been taken in Britain.
1. A. davicornis Fcib. — Coqiicherfs Icon. pi. 8./ 7.1
Length nearly 2 lines. Piceous, antenna^ head and ante-
rior portion of thorax ochreous ; superior wings variegated
with brown at the tips, the nervurcs slightly tuberculated and
having series of short bristles: inferior wings minute; legs va-
riegated with brown, anterior dilated, brown with a few
ochreous spots, the tip of the tibia of the same colour.
Grassy places, end of April, in a clover field at Henstead,
Suffolk, J. C.
2. A. dubia Crcut.—Panz. 35. 20.— grisea Lat.
2§ lines long. Smooth, pale ochreous, robust; eyes black,
2nd joint of antennae nearly as long as the 1st, both brown at
the tips, a brown line on each side the thorax : superior wings
shorter than the body, immaculate ; inferior none ; abdomen
variegated with brown.
SOth July and beginning of Sept., on rushes near Black
Gang Chine.
3. A. pulchella Curt. Brit. Ent. pi. 41-5.— Allied to D. cras-
sicornis Fab. and Panz. 35. 19.
I first discovered this pretty insect with the foregoing spe-
cies, and Mr. Dale having taken Uiem in company, imagined
that A. dubia might be the pupa, but I think it may be die
female of./, pulchella, lor I have never seen a male of it, whilst
of this species I cannot find a female. It has aUo been found
by Mr. Dale in a damp situation near the sea at Charmouth,
as well as another pretty species on reeils at the Peat Pits,
Weston on the Green, near Oxford, together with a 5ih hav-
ing a very faint mark on the wings.
The beautiful Plant is Latlnjnts Nissolia (Crimson Grass-
vetch), gathered at Puckaster Cove in the Isle of Wight, and
communicated by Charles Vine, Esq.

Cixius is related to Asiraca (pi. 44-5) on the one hand and to
Issus (pi. 449) on the other. It is well known that in some of
the cognate genera there are curious appendages to the an-
tennae, as in Oiiocerus o^Kithy, but I believe no one has before
observed the elongation of the Srd joint in Ci.rius. I am not
aware that the oeconomy of this group is known, yet the per-
fect insects are not uncommon, frequenting trees and shrubs ;
they rest with their wings closed, which they open to make
short flights, and are assisted in rising by their hind legs.
These pretty insects seem to vary so much, and each often
bears so considerable a resemblance in markings to the other,
that it is difficult to say which are genuine species. The fol-
lowing however are recorded as such, and 1 have several others
which I shall not venture to name until more attention has
been jv^id to them. I may here observe that the Flafa serra-
tulcc of Fab. probably belongs to this genus, and I liave been
wrong in admitting the F. musiva of Germar into niy list.

This insect varies so much in colour and markings, being
sometimes nearly of an uniform clay colour, at others the
elytra are dark with a paler band, that any one would at first
imagine there were many species of the genus; I believe, how-
ever, that one only has been found in this country.
The following is a description of the beautiful variety re-
presented in the Plate which is in the collection of my friend
Mr. A. H. Davis.
1. I. coleoptratus Fab. — Curt. Brit. EjU.pl. 44'9.
Pale ochreous, head, thorax and scutellum darker, va-
riegated with brown ; eyes piceous; abdomen ochreous,
the base ferruginous, a broad space on each side black,
greenish at the base; elytra with a band next the thorax
brown, a large lanceolate spot on the costa towards the
apex formed by the brown reticulated nervures and
spots between, an oblique paler line near the posterior
margin, and a >-shaped one a little beyond the mid-
dle ; inferior wings dark fuscous, the nervures darker,
paler at the base, with a faint rosy tinge: 1st and 2nd
pair of legs with the tips of the thighs and tibiae and a
ring near the middle piceous, posterior thighs and base
of tibiae fuscous, tarsi tipped with piceous.
Obs. — The form of the insect with its wings closed of the
natural size is shown towards the foot of the Plate.
Isstis coleoptratus is found in hedges and woods round Lon-
don, in May, June, and July ; I have taken it in Norfolk, and
Mr. F. Walker informs me that he often finds it in October
on the flowers of the Ivy at Southgate.
The Plant is lihinanthus Crista-galli (Yellov/ Rattle).

The CicacUe are exceedingly interesting from their having
attracted the notice of the most celebrated ancient poets and
writers ; and it is remarkable enough that whilst the Greeks
loved and extolled them tor their sonjj, Virjril execrated them
for their noi^e as well as more modern authors.
The males only are furnished with the curious apparatus for
singing : a pleasing account of these insects will be found in the
2nd vol. of Kirby and Spence (p. 402) ; and in Latreille's
Hist. Nat. tome 2. p. 293, their habits and oeconomv are de-
tailed.
The species of Cicada? are very numerous and are distri-
buted over a vast portion of the globe, from Europe to Brazil,
the Cape of Good Hope, New Holland, China, and the inter-
mediate countries. There are none nmch smaller than our
British species, but I have a Herculean one from Penang, pre-
sented to me by my friend James Thompson, Escj., which mea-
sures 7 inches across, when the wings are expanded ; in an-
other from Java the plates are very remarkable, and form a
lobe on each side nearly | of an inch long.
No species has been found so far to the north I believe as
C. Anglica. I have adopted this name, as I am not confident
that it is the C. hconatodcs of Linn. ; the C. sangxiinca of Fabri-
cius (C luematodcs Scop.) is a larger and different insect,
which has never been found in England: we met with it in the
vineyards in the JSouth of France, where we also took C. plv-
bcia on the almond trees, C Orni on fir trees, as well as an-
other the size of C. Atiglica^ and somewhat like it. Their songs
were very difierent, but none of them very agreeable, and
when the sun was unclouded tlie whole air vibrated with their
singing.
C. Atiglica was first discovered in the New Forest about 20
years since, and although Mr. Dale and myself have been un-
ceasing in our endeavours to find it, we never succeeded until
last year. The first I took on the 2nd of June, and on the 7th
two more; the males fly about like humble-bees ; the females I
beat out of white-thorns, and some of them then flew into furze
bushes, and when entangled in them, they made a buzzing like
a Libellula similarly situated ; they are found also on the stems
of the Fern, and I suspect ihe larvie live on the roots. I do
not think our Cicada sings ; the abdominal plates are very
small and appear to me to be united. Mr. Dale kept a male
alive 2 or 3 days, but it was perfectly mute. This, however,
is by no means conclusive, because it may require heat and
sunshine to call its })owers of song into action.
Mr. ISamouelle having represented the female, I havefigureil
the male, which is bv tin- the rarer sex. 'I'he Flant is Aqui-
h-gia I'ulgaris (Counnon Columbine).

These insects are to be found in ponds and ditches all the year,
together with the larvae and pupae (which are smaller than the
imago) ; the former are without, and the latter have only rudiments
of elytra : they are said to feed upon animalcula. The perfect in-
sect being capable of inflicting a considerable wound with its ros-
trum when taken, must be a formidable enemy amongst the weaker
inhabitants of the water.
The wings, which are exquisitely delicate, and the elytra that
protect them, are of little use to the insect in its natural element ;
but they are necessary to its preservation, by enabling it to seek a
more congenial situation, when the place of its habitation is dried
up by the heat of the sun, or other casualties. Upon approaching
a pond these insects may be seen lying upon their backs, with their
tails touching the surface of the water, and their heads inclined
downward, watching probably for their prey ; and upon the least
alarm they row off' and dive with the greatest celerity, their hinder
lej^s (which are most beautifully fringed with long silky hair) serving
(liem like oars, from whence the appellation of Boatfly.
The genus Notonecta contains 3 species, differing only in colour
and markings.
1. N. furcata Fah. Ent. Syst. 4. 58. 2.— Don. IG. 560. 2.— Sam. pi 5./. 3.
Length 7'z lines. Oclireous, eyes piceous ; head and thorax shining:
scutellum metathorax and al)domen black, the latter with the margins
ochreous-yellow : elytra brown with 2 broad pale ochre streaks at the
base ; a spot at the middle ochreous brown, edge of costa and apex pale
fuscous variegated with brown : wings opalescent, with a slight yellowish
tint, nervures piceous.
This species is less abundant than the next, but may be found
plentifully round London and other parts of the kingdom, from
April to October. Mr. Dale has observed it at Glanville's Woot-
tou ; Isle of Portland ; and New Forest.
2. N. glauca Linn. Faun. Suec. 244. 903. — Don. 3. 75.
Length 6\ lines. Ochreous, eyes piceous ; head and thorax shining, the
basal half of the former more or less lead-coloured : scutellum metathorax
and abdomen black, the apex and sides of the latter ochreous : elytra
with the costa ferruginous, bearing several blackish spots, and frequently
a brown spot on the inferior margin ; posterior margin semitransparent,
the tip brownish : wings opalescent, with a slight yellowish tint, nervures
ochreous. Sometimes the elytra are slightly sprinkled with brown spots
on the inferior margin.
Found in almost every pond from the middle of March to the
end of October.
3. N. maculata Fah.— Curt. Brit. Eiit.pl. 10.— Don. 16. 560. 1.
Ochreous : eyes piceous ; head and thorax shining, the latter inclining to
cinereous behind ; metathorax bright orange, black at the base as well as
the scutellum : abdomen orange, with a semiorbicular velvety black patch
at the base, lateral margin of the penultimate joint green : elytra orange-
ochre, irregularly clouded and spotted with brown, posterior margin pale
brown : wings opalescent, with a yellowish tint, orange at the base, the
nervures brownish : legs sometimes greenish-ochre.
This beautiful insect is rarely found near London, but it has
occurred at Turnham Green ; in the West of England it is more
abundant, and is found from the end of July to llie beginning of
October. jNIr. Dale first met with it at Glanville's Wootton ; after-
wards in the New Forest; Isle of Portland; on C'licddcr Cliffs in a
pond free from weeds, and in .Scotland; at Charniouth; near Bath;
also near Bristol, and in the neighbourhood of Exeter and Ply-
mouth, by Dr. Leach.
A Notonecta allied to macnlala, and discovered by the late ^Ir.
II. Scales, is mentioned in the Entomological Transactions, which
Mr. Dale says may be only a variety of >V. glauca, which lie has
found to vary consiilerably, especially at W'hittlesea Mere.
Ccrastiwn aqiiaticum (Marsh Mouse-ear) is figured in the plate.

Theke are various species of this singular insect distributed
over the old world, hut I do not remember to have seen one
from any part of America ; yet the genera Beloslonia and
Naucoris are not uncommon there. The only species found
in this country, and I believe I may add in Europe, inhabits
ditches and ponds : it moves slowly, and when resting amongst
the conferva? or mud at the bottom of the water it is easily
overlooked, from its obscure dirty colour ; yet when the wings
are expanded, the fine scarlet tint of the back gives it a hand-
some appearance. I think there is little doubt that Nepa can
flv, yet I never heard of one being detected on the wing. It
is' found throughout the year in every stage. The eggs are
very remarkable, and resemble the seeds of some Syngenesious
plants; they are deposited in a string, embracing each other
by seven rays surrounding the apex, which close upon the base
of the one before it.
These insects, like Ilanatrn linearis (pi. 281.), are carnivo-
rous, and live, I believe, in their diifcrent states, upon other
insects and small animals, such as tadpoles, whether dead ov
alive: they are provided with powerful anterior legs, peculi-
arly adapted for seizing upon the larva,^ and pu});e of other
aquatic insects, more active than themselves, which are speed-
ily despatched by their strong proboscis. Like other insects
inhabiting the water, their antennae are small, and their situa-
tion is similar to that of the flea, lying in cavities immediately
behind the eyes. The filaments forming two tails are for the
purpose of respiration when the insects are under water.
In the 7th volume of the " Annales Gcnerales des Sciences
Physiques" is an elaborate and curious memoir, by Mons.
Leon Dufour, detailing the anatomy and organization o^Ncpa
cinerea and Raiiatra linearis, which are said to be very remark-
able.
The plant is Sagittaria sagittifolia, Common Arrow-heaii.

These singular animals inhabit the water in every stage of
their existence, and it is said they prefer the deepest parts.
The female forces her eggs into the stem of a Scirpiis, or some
other aquatic plant, so that they are concealed ; and it is only
the two bristles which are attached to one end of them that
are visible. The plants containing the eggs are figured by
Geoffroy ; they are easily preserved in water, and may be kept
till the young hatch.
The perfect insects leave the ponds and ditches they inhabit
in the evening, and may be found, I have heard, on their
borders amongst the mud, which they so much resemble in
colour, that unless they move it is almost impossible to detect
them. Like most other winged water insects they fly in the
night, and sometimes it is said to a considerable distance, in
search of places better suited to their habits in dry seasons,
when many ponds and small pieces of water are dried up ; as
their eggs in such instances would be destroyed.
The Ranatra Imcaris, which is the only European species,
lives upon other water insects, which it holds between its
fore feet, whilst it pierces and sucks them with its beak or
rostrum. They are found from January to July, and also in
September, and most })robably all the year : they seem to be
generally distributed, and may be taken in most parts of the
neighbourhood of London. Mr. Samouelle mentions Epping
Forest, Copenhagen Fields, and Hammersmith ; INIr. Dono-
van, Ilford, Essex; Dr. Stephenson has captured them on
Wantlsworth Common ; and IMr. Flenry Atkinson near Prim-
rose-hill. They have been taken also in Norfolk and Suffolk ;
and I am indebted to Charles C. Babington, Escj. of St. John's
College, for very fine specimens taken near Cambridge last
spring.
The plant is Ocntiana Pneumonanthe (Calathian Violet).

These insects by rowing with their posterior feet ghde over
the water with great swiftness, and their undersides are ren-
dered impervious by the beautiful silvery hairs with which
they are densely covered. Gerris is most nearly allied to
Velia (pi. 2), but is distinguished by its horizontal head, the
great length of the 4 posterior legs, which are very remote
from the anterior, and the tarsi are biarticulate. Like Velia
and Hydrometra, some adult specimens are apterous, as in
G. Paiisari'jis which is very like G. paludwn, but I cannot
I
think tliey are one species, the females of the former being so

^ This is called the Rostrum ; it is the analogue of the labium, and is similar to that
part in the Diptera, being hollow and open above to receive the other trophi. The
greatest difference seems to be in the absence of a tongue ; the 4 setae united probably
form a tube which would supersede the necessity of such an organ. In figure 2* the
part distinguished at a, may be analogous to the mentum, and b to the bilobed fleshy lip
of the Diptera, which in this order is horny.
Velia is nearly related to Gerris and Hydrometra (PI. 32), and
like those j^enera is remarkable for occasionally wanting wings; and
although t years since I was induced to offer an opinion which in-
clined to a belief that the apterous specimens might be the pupae
only, I am now almost convinced that they are a distinct species;
for it is no uncommon circumstance in the New Forest to find the
largest apterous species of Gerris united, the abdomen of the female
being greatly distended : it is therelbre still to be hoped that some
assiduous entomologist who resides in a convenient situation, will
endeavour to decide this doubtful and interesting cjucstion, by con-
fining a sufficient number of V. currens (the conmion and apterous
s{)ecies) in a frame covered with coarse gauze, and letting it float
where they have been observed to congregate.
In the winged specimens the thorax projects over the abdomen
as in Gerris, and the scutellum seems to be wanting; the ciliated
middle tibiae common to both sexes, and the spined jiosterior
thighs of the male, are not common characters, although they are
observable in Gerris, from which Velia is distuiguished by its shorter
legs and 3-jointed anterior tarsi, the terminal joint of which pro-
jecting in a lobe over the claws is very remarkable and is less di-
stinct in the other feet. Tiie short and thick })ile with which the
undersides of these insects are clothed, repells the water so that
they are not injured by its action.

The family to which this insect belongs is remarkable for the
large portion of individuals that appear without wings, which
has led to a variety of opinions. Tiie questions hitherto have
been whether the apterous specimens of Felia, Hi/drometra,
and Gem's were perfect insects or pupa^, and if perfect, whe-
ther they were distinct species from the winged examples. I
shall now add another question. Do they not undergo, like the
Ephemerida?, 4 metamorphoses? in which case the apterous
would be the penultimate state of the winged species. Tiiat
they are not in the imago state I should argue from the
great variation in the thorax, which is generally less developed
and sometiuies very different in form tt) the winged specimens;
and that they are not pujia' may be inferred from tlieir being
frecjuently found paired, and having no rudimentary wings.
From a belief that the apterous specimens were not pupte, I
stated on a former occasion that they probably were distinct
species (vide folios 2, 32, and 553), but from subsequent con-
siderations 1 think it probable they may be in that state which
I have termed Pseudimago in my memoir on the Ephemeridaj
and Phryganiche.
My I'riend Mr. Ilaliday has been the first to detect Ilj/drccssa
pygmcca in our Islands ; lie says, " They were taken in a marsh
near Ik-lfast in June and September; they move on the water
more slowly than Telia, mostly among acjuatic plants: the fe-
males seem more numerous than the males, and the winired
specimens are very rare." 1 may adil that these are a little
the largest, and the a|)terous males and females difi'er materially
in size but not in habit ; the males are much smaller than our
little figure ? , and the females, the magnified appearance of
which is given in outline, are as large as the little figure just
referred to: they have a whitish sericeous band on the fore
part of the thorax divided at the middle, and 2 spots near the
base antl the abdominal segments are of the same hue, except-
ing down the back ; the legs are coloured like the winged spe-
cimens. In the males the white j)ile is not so evident.
Mons. Leon Dufour first noticed this pretty little insect on
shady stagnant water round .Saint Sever in Landes, and de-
scribed it in the 2nd vol. of the Ann. de la Soc. Ent. de France :
he found some hundreds of specimens, but only 2 or 3 with
win<xs.

These curious insects are common in almost every brook
and pond during the spring, where they may be seen with Ve-
lia, pi. 2, and Gerris, pi. 553, gliding along the surface of the
water. Most of them are either apterous, or have only short
parallel elytra, whilst a few have ample elytra, decumbent and
horizontalvvhen the insects are at rest, and also perfect wings,
as exhibited in the specimen represented flying in the plate.
634
Like Velia and Gerris, it is at present impossible to determine
whether the apterous specimens constitute a distinct species:
that they are not pupas I am convinced, because I have found
them in that state when they are smaller with rudimentary
elytra; and as I now possess males and females of both, it is
evident that the winj^s do not indicate a sexual distinction.
These insects must therefore either be distinct species, or else
they sometimes have and sometimes have not wings : this may
well be a very difficult question, for if we were to find a well-
known species of bird in its adult state at times with and at
others without winsfs, no doubt it would very much embarrass
the ornitholoifist. Entomology, however, presents so many
anomaiies, that it will not be judicious to consider such as a
parallel case. I confess that 1 am inclined to believe the Hy-
drometrae are two distinct species ; at the same time I freely
admit that there are so many instances of Hemipterous in-
sects being found somelinics winged and at others apterous
or semiapterous in their perfect state, that such variations may
only arise from temjierature or casualties wilii which we are
unaccjuainted, unless indeed it be a pseudimago state, as I have
already promulgated at folio 681.

For a fine winged pair I am indebted to the Hon. C. A.
Harris, who took 4 males and females the middle of August,
with an abundance of apterous specimens and several pupa3
on a branch of the Stour, which runs through the grounds of
the Earl of INIalmesbury at Heron Court. Mr. Dale has
taken them at Rydal water, Cumberland, the end of August,
and Mr. Marshall at Hornsey. Mr. W. Clifton found both
winged antl apterous specimens on pulling up grass in the
middle of a swainjiy field in June, on Barnes Conunon, in great
abundance; also at Wandsworth, at the roots of trees on re-
moving the grass; and I may add that I have taken them
winged in June in the New Forest, but I have generally ob-
served H. stagnorum on the sides of rivers and rutming
brooks in April and May, but I found the larvit and imago
untler stones on the shores of Loch Fad in August.

The TingidiC are a pretty group, varying considerably in
outline and in the form of the antenna?, and will most probably
eventually constitute several genera. The 2 species included
in our genus Dictijonuta (in allusion to the reticulated back),
possess a strong generic character in the 3rd joint of the an-
tennae beinjT the thickest, wliereas in all the others the termi-
nal one is the most robust, making them more or less clavate :
the inflated hood over the head distinguishes it also from many
others, but not from T. spinifrons of Fallen, figured by Panzer
fasc. 99. n. 19. under the name of T. cristata.
That our insect is the T, crassicornis of Fallen there is little
doubt, although from his not being acquainted with the other
species, his description will in a great measure apply to both.
I have only seen one specimen, which I found under a stone
in a meadow near Bognor, Sussex, the beginning of August ;
from which the annexed figure was* taken.
The other species appears to be the T. Eri/ngii of Latreille.
It was taken in some abundance in July upon furze bushes
( Ulex\ by Mr. Carpenter ; and although with the assistance
of a glass many characters present themselves, yet as there is
a strong resemblance, we cannot perhaps employ ourselves
more usefully than by subjoining the characters.

Fabricius established the genus Tingis in the Systema
Rhyngotorum, where he describes Cardui as the type, for
whicli reason I gave the name of Galeatus to the group widi
a large hood and lobes to the thorax; it therefore appears
to me that the name Monanthia, imposed by Lepeltier and
adopted by Hahn, must fall.
Some of these insects are found upon thistles and flowers

AuADUS may be at once separated from the Tingidae by the
greater length of the second joint of the antennae, by the elytra
not covering the abdomen, by the tarsi of two joints, &c. ; and
from Aneuriis (fol. 86), by the shortness of the terminal joint
of the antenna?, the strong nervures, slender rostrum, S:c.
From their depressed form it is most likely that, like
Aneurus, they reside under the bark of trees ; and from their
variegated and plain colours they are not easily detected : but
as they never occur I believe in any abundance in this countr}',
their economy is not well known.
The genus has never before been recorded as British, al-
though Stewart in his " Elements" mentions some of the
species. The following are inhabitants of this Island.
1. A. depressus Fah. Wolff, tab. 13./ 123.
This is the most common of the species ; I have found it
twice at Darent Wood, Kent : it is a very sluggish insect.
2. A. corticalis ? Linn. — Curtis Brit. Ent. pi. 230.
Mr. Dale tliinks he took the female figured at Hurne, in
Hampshire.
Although Linnaeus does not notice the pale termination of
the third and fourth joints of the antennae, nor has Wolff re-
presented them, I am disposed to think that they are subject
to vary in this respect, or it may be a sexual mark ; and
whether Schellenberg's Corcus spinigcr be allied to this or to
A. dcjnrssns, I cannot ascertain, not having the work.

thor as British, iVoni the cabinet of the late Sir Joseph Banks.
I am not aware that it has been before figured; and from La-
treille never havinj^ seen it, we may presume that it is very
rare upon the Continent. In economy it resembles the Aradi,
living under bark, for which it> form is peculiarly adapted,
the flatness of its body and tlu^ shortness of its legs enabling
it to lie very close ; and this will account for the remarkably
short rostrum, which is no less well adapted for its jiarticular
habits of life, — the extraction of luitrition from the internal co-
verincT of trees. From the number 1 met with the end of
August 1822, they appear to be gregarious; they were con-
cealed beneath the loose bark of a fir-pole that was laid across
a brook, near Parley Heath, Hampshire. The males are
smaller than the females.
The plant is Erijsimwn Barbana (W'inlei- Cresses, or
Rocket).

These insects, together with their larvae and pupce, are very
abundant on the borders of rivers, lakes, and ponds, as well as
on the sea-shore, where they inhabit the Zosfera and rejecta-
menta. In fine weather they are extremely active, running
with great speed, and jumping with astonishing agihty; but in
dull days they lie concealed in the cracks of the mud, under
stones, &c.
The little attention that has been paid to this genus renders it
impossible to determine the species with accuracy, but to those
that appear to be undescribed I shall add short descriptions.

Stewart says, " The bed-bug is unhappily but too well
known, and was an inhabitant of Europe prior to the Christian
aera; at least it is mentioned by Aristophanes and other Greek
writers. Southall says it was hardly known in London before
1670, but there is good authority for asserting, that it was
common enough there before the great fire in 1666."
No insect in England causes more uneasiness to the house-
keeper than this loathsome insect, yet there are few dwellings
in London tliat are entirely free from tliem, and tliey are gra-
dually fiiulini,' their way, by the constant traffic going on, into
every city and town in England. To prevent their emigration
is impossible, for although they are fortunately destitute of the
oro-ans of flight, a trunk or great-coat remaining one night in
an infested room may harbour enough to stock a whole house;
and they have even been observed in vast numbers coming out
of the cracks of Canada timber employed in the structure of
new houses. As every one may be subject to this annoyance,
nothing would be more acceptable than a remedy, and perhaps
the easiest and most effectual is extreme cleanliness and con-
stant vigilance : if a bed-room, for instance, be infected, all
chinks in the wall should be carefully stopped with plaster of
Paris, the ceiling washetl with lime, and the floor scrubbed
with hot water and soap ; every nail-hole and crack in the bed-
stead must be filled with putty, and after being taken to pieces
and well scrubbed, it ought to be washed, when dry, with spi-
rits of turjjentine, or a solution of corrosive sublimate, which
has not so unpleasant a scent as the turpentine, and is, I
think, even more efficacious ; and the skirting-boards and even
the walls may be washed with this solution without detriment,
except where there are metallic mouldings. In travelling, par-
ticularly abroad, I have freed myself from these persecuting
animals and obtained a good night's rest, by sprinkling the
sheets with spirits of turpentine before going to bed.
The House-bug makes its appearance with the first warm
days of spring, and is found during the summer months. As
soon as it is hatched from the egg it can run about, and is
then so transparent that the blood can be distinctly seen
through the abdomen; after becoming pupa? there is little dit-
ference in their api)earance except in si/e and colour, and in
their perfect state they very much resemble the pupa?. I have
some idea that in the last state, the males do not suck the
blood of man, and if I am not very much mistaken the Bug
frequently turns his rostrum over his head as represented at
fi". 1. p, when he feeds, in which case he cannot well pierce
the object he stands upon. It is also a remarkable cjuality that
many of the Cimicida? jiossess, of connnunicating an oflensive
odour when touched. Bugs are very active at night, but they
secrete themselves during the day; they can live a very long
period without nourishment, and DeGeer observed that tliey
occasionally fed upon each other: we learn also from Latreille
that they torment the young of pigeons, swallows, Sec, but
that which lives on the latter birds forms a distinct species.
The Plant is Etysimwn Alliaria or Alliaria ojjicinalis

M. Di: Laportf. first ilistinguihlied this geiuis from tl)e oilier
Ueduvii by its 5-jointe(J antenna?, and ocelli placed bij'orc the
eyes at the base of the rostrum ; but after a revision of his
Essay, he remodelled his synojitic table and gave the following
characters: " Anterior thighs dilated in the middle : antenuic
with not more than .) joints: anteiior thighs without spines:
eyes onlinary : 2nd joint of antenna." not sensibly thicker than
the last : transverse channel of thorax placed behind : heine-
lytra short." As it is evident that the ocelli are placed bc-
twccJi the eyes, and that the anterior thighs are spiny, the above
definitions are defective. Not having studied the exotic lle-
tluvii sufliciently, I am unable to give proper essential cha-
racters to this group; but Prostennna appears to be distin-
guished from die other British genera by the length of the
basal, and the shortness of the 2nd joints of tlie antenna^, by
the spiny anterior thighs and the peculiar form of the anterior
tibiie, wliich are furnished with a large flesiiy sucker at the
apex, adapted to prehension. There may possibly be mi-
nute annulets at the base of the 2 terminal joints of the an-
tennae, but for want of a specimen to dissect I have not been
able to determine that point.
This beautiful insect was discovered last September on the
sand hills near Sandwich, by my friend Mr. A. Kennedy,
who very kindly presented me with his only sjiecimen. Mons.
Dufour at first consiilereil this to be an inidcscribetl species,
but he now agrees with the Count de Castelnau in thinking it
is an apterous example of 11. Grtttula, Fab. Latreille says it
is found in the neighbourhood of Paris, sometimes in houses
(l)rought in possibly with the fuel), and that it is rarely found
winjfed. M. Dufour has taken it not uncommonlv in the
environs of Saint Sever as well as in Spain, under stones or
knots of dry jjlants.
In a recent number we described an insect (Hydroessa
pygma^a) found by the same distinguished naturalist in the
South of France, which was soon after delected in tlie north
of Ireland by Mr. lialiday, and we now have before us another
instance of the insects of the south finding their way in dry
seasons to our country ; and, on the other liand, in our prece-
ding plate (683.) is an example of a northern insect attracted
to the south. Noctua Sulidu^inis is well known as an inhabit-
ant of Lapland and Sweden, but was never detected in En-
ghuid until lately. Such liicts are interesting, anil ought, 1
think, to be recorded, intimately connected as they are with
the geography of animals.
The Plant is Lepidium latifuUuin, Broad-leaved Dittander,
which I fi)und last Au<;ust near Sandwich, by tlie road lead-
in<f to the Sand-hills.

I FOUND several specimens of C. suhaptenis on the sand hills
at Pegwell Bay the middle of October; they had a peculiar
scent resembling that of mellow apples, I think ; some were
running about, others lying quite still watching (like a cat for
a mouse) apparently for flies on which the larvae feed, and
many of them were paired. Mr. Dale has taken it near Sir
Geor<re Rose's plantations at Mudcford, Hants, and Mr.
Streatfield at Aimer. x- -.^ /- i
I believe this insect to be the C. suhapterus ot De Ueer, but
there has been so much confusion between this and the B.

doubtful about it : from Wolff's description I am prcttv cer-
tain that it is the same as his R.pedcstris, but his figure is not
a fTood one. The number of joints in the antenna- and their
form, together with the situation of the eyes and the size of
the ocellT, and la.tlv the imperfect elytra and wings, are so very
different to those of Ueduvius that 1 iiave been obliged to form
a new genus for our insect, but as I shall not illustrate the type
of the flunily it will be as well to give the characters ot

These curious and elegant little insects are remarkable for
their slender and long legs, especially the hinder pair, and
for their clubbed and bent antennae, which, when alive, they
carry something like ants, as represented at fig. 4.
Our insect, from its head being less elongated than in the
other species, its elytra having fewer nervures, the ample
under wings, and the intermediate joints of the antennae being
of equal length, will form a 2nd division of the genus Neides,
which name is restored because Latreille employed it in his
characters published before Fabricius's Sijstcma llhijtigotoriim
appeared.
We can now enumerate 3 species :
1. N. tipularius Zm«., WoIJf. tab. 20. f. 198. Inhabiting
grassy places in June and August.
2. clavipes Fab. Inhabiting grassy places : not un-
common in Norfolk.
3. elcgans Xob. Of this pretty insect, which appears
to be perfectly new, I found a pair in the North
Foreland meadow, Dover, on the 14th August last.
The male, which sex is figured, is a little smaller
than the female, but varies from it in no other re-
spect : the scutellum, perhaps, may not be quite
correctly represented, tlie pin having passed through
both of them.
A.y)crula cijnanchica (Small Woodroof), from the same
neighbourhood as the insect, is figured with it.

MiRis is distinguished by its long slender setaceous antennae,
with the basal joint elongated, stout and porrected horizontally;
this is stouter in the females, aiul often very hairy. Miris does
not appear to have any ocelli; the Count cle Castelnau is
therefore mistaken in supposing that C/iorosorria is allied to it,
for the ocelli are very distinct in my genus, and the terminal
joint of the antenna: is stouter than tlm penultimate, so that it
cannot belong to his family Astemmites.

This pretty insect is nearly related to Lygus of Hahn and to
my genus Pantilius, from both of which it is distinguished by
the shorter 2nd joint, and much longer 3rd joint of the an-
tennae. The same characters also separate it from Poecilo-
soma, which it otherwise very much resembles, which induced
me to locate it close to that genus ; and allhougli it seems in
that situation to intersect two natural groups, yet it is difficult
to find a place where it interferes less with the natural affini-
ties of the allied groups.
It is remarkable that this curious and striking species should
never have been figured or described ; but it does not appear
to be known upon the continent, otherwise Wolff or Panzer
would have figured it, and it has not yet been published in
any of Hahn's fasciculi in my possession. It is probably the
insect called Azijicccrn disjutr in Stephens's Catalogue, and as
such I marked it in the Guide ; but as I have no means of as-
certaining that they are identical, I have named it Harpocera,
in allusion to the antenna', which resemble a reaping-hook or
sickle, and the specific name is given in honour of Professor
Burmei.ster of Berlin, whose talents are now devoted to the
investigation of the Homoptera.
It does not seem to be a rare species, lor 1 have met with it
in several localities; in May in Coomb-wood, Surrey, upon
grass; on the foliage of oak-trees in the plantations at Arno's
Grove, Southgate, in abundance ; also in a garden near Lon-
don, as well as in Bagley-wood or at Shotover near Oxford in
July. The following is the description of
II. Burmeisteri Curf. Brit. Eni. pi. 709.
Male dark piceous, with short ochreous pubescence ; a line
down the crown yellow, a broader one on the disc of the thorax
not reaching the anterior margin, orange ; apex of the scutel
oranjje and vellow, base of abdomen ochreous: antenniv dull
pale brown, darkest at the apex: elytra fuscous-ochre a little
clouded; stigma piceous, the internal margin whitish; the
membrane iridescent and pale fuscous, with a red spot or line
at the apex of the ceil : thighs orange, hinder piceous, except
at the base ; tibia? ochreous, the tips, bristles and tarsi piceous.
Female lighter : head yellow with 2 shining oval black spots
on the crown : thorax ochreous, the sides more orange, with
2 transverse oval black rings in front : abdomen entirely ociu'e-
ous: hinder thighs slightly fuscous only at the apex.
The plant is Alopecurus prateusis, Meadow Fox-tail-grass.

The type of the genus Capsus is well characterised by the
clavate 2nd joint of the antennae and the slenderness of those
that follow: my genus Chlamydatus is distinguished from
Capsus by the antennae, the 2nd joint being scarcely clavate,
by the elytra wanting the membranous apex, and by the abs-
ence of the wings. The species figured seems to be so inter-
mediate that I doubt whether it will be necessary to retain the
genus; this however will be best ascertained by dissection.
For the present, tlierefore, I shall give sections for the British
species contained in my cabinet.

Whether Hahn's figiu'e be intended lor my insect I cannot
determine, for he has not indicated the yellow hairs upon it ;
the hinder thighs are mucii thicker than in my specimens, the
tibi.c are entirely ochreous, and the tarsi are very short.
1 took 3 specimens off grass in dry meadows near ISandwicli,
the middle of last Auf^ust.

rax shining, the former ochreous at the base; elytra with a
broad ochreous space at the base and a narrow n^.argin,
sometimes all round, of the same colour: abdomen black:
hinder legs very long and the thighs very thick ; legs ochre-
ous, thighs black, the tips and anterior tibia; ferruginous:
1 line long.
Not uncommon on the sand hills at Lowestoft the beginning
of June. It resembles the Cimcx grijlloides Liini. in colour,
but it is much smaller, and the antemuv are quite dillerent.

The males are narrower than the females ; and it is remark-
able, that both sexes are occasionally found with perfect wings :
but it seems that climate has a great influence in perfecting them ;
for out of a considerable number taken in this country, i have
never found one with wings; whilst of those I took at Mont-
pellier and die Pont du Gard in the South ot France, several
were win^red. The apterous specimens do not differ m colour
or size frSm those that are winged ; and many of d.e former
were found in pairs by Mr. Dashwood, jun., of Beccles in
Suffolk, on sandy banks in that neighbourhood, the middle ot
there is another extraordinary incident in the history of
this handsome and conspicuous insect : some years these plant-
bugs appear in myriads, whilst at other times not one can be
found Many years back it was observed in excessive abun-
dance on some little islands at Torquay in Devonshire, on
which, 1 understood, the Tree Mallow {Lavatera arborea)
erew: a plant our insect is much attached to, probably from
a particular Aphis or larva that infests it. Mr. Abraham, of
Exeter, informed Mr. Dale, that the Pip-rhoccris apterusss^s
in such profusion on a rock in the sea off^ Teignmouth, in
Devon, that it looked quite red with them; at the same time
he observed there was not any vegetation for them to inhabit:
and the insects being apterous, it seemed strange how they
could have attained such a spot. . , , i •
The transportation of these insects to an insulated rock m
the sea may be easily accounted for, if we suppose a lew, or
even one pair of winged specimens to have flown there, pro-
bably from France ; and this would at once show the use of
some individuals being furnished with wings, as well as the
wisdom of Providence in supplying so tew with the means of
flicrht ; since, from their astonishing increase, the country might
be'overrun by them if they were able to disperse rapidly : the
means, however, are always adapted to the end ; and as the
Pvrrhoceris no doubt lives by sucking other insects, it may
only be propagated in extraordinary numbers when some La-
terpillar or Aphis threatens, by its superabundance, the total
annihilation of a local species of plant; and this provision is
of such common occurrence, that it is unnecessary to adduce
evidence in support of the observation. .
In the vegetable kingdom, a scarcity of fruit following a >ear
of abundan?e, arises from exhaustion ; but of course we must
look to very different causes amongst animals ; and with regard
to the Pvrrhoceris, its sudden disappearance may arise rom
its conspicuous colouring, which could not lail to attract the
notice of birds in an exposed situation, especially when they
covered a spot so completely as to give even a red tint to the
rock.
The Plant is Malva sj/lvcstris (Common Mallow).

the type of Lyg;i,-u.s, but us another insect is <riven to represent
Lvf^o-'us by the Continental authors (vide fol. 481.) I liave here
adopted Hahn's generic name. There are 3 British species.
1. Tliynii IVulJJ', tab. 15. f. 143.— conica Gmd. ?
Blackish, coarsely punctured ; head and thorax with a ^e.^
whiiish-ochreous spots, one on the anterior margin of
the thorax, with the hinder angles anil a spot on the base
of the same colour: elytra nearly white, basal portion with
2 lines of black dots on the nervures with the edge of the
costaand the oblique margin black, the apical portion with
4 or 5 clouded strijies : antenn;i? pale brown, basal joint
dark: legs dull ochreous, thighs, excepting the tips, black,
base and apex of til)i;o, as well as the apex of the basal
joint of the tarsi, and the whole of the apical one blackish :
length, c^l^,, ? 2:1: lines.
I have found many pairs of this pretty species in May under
stones in the Isle of Portland, and in June running quickly
over the sand-hills near Lowestoft: I also took a specimen in
the Isle of Arran. It is said by Wolllto be attached to Thy-
mus Scrpyllum (pi. 581).
2. laticeps Ctirt. Brit. Ent. pi. 597.
As Fabricius has a Lygcciis lineola I have been obliged to
change the name ; and as the head is broader than in the other
species, I have called it laticeps. I took a specimen under a
stone at Black-gang Chine the 4th of August, and I believe
Mr. Dale has met with it.
3. Urticae Fab.
Greenish-black, rather coarsely punctured and hairy: la-
brum, a dot at the base of the head, margin of thorax and
3 short lines at the base dirty ochre; tip of scutellum and
elytra of the same colour, the latter punctured with black
and spotted with the same, except at the base, apical por-
tion with a single black dot in the centre ; margin of ab-
domen spotted with ochre : antenna) sometimes reildish-
brown, basal joint black, trochanters and knees ochreous,
tibia? and tarsi of the same colour, spotted with black :
length, (^2^, ? 3^ lines.
Common in most places on nettles in the spring.
Specimens of the Arbutus Uncdo (Common Strawberry-
tree) I gathered in fruit on the rocks round the lakes of Kil-
larney and (jlengarill" in July: the outline of a flower is given
from a garden specimen.

In the Cabinets of the British Museum and Mr. Johnson.
For the loan of this beautiful insect I am indebted to Mr. E.
A. Johnson : it was taken amongst some cabbages in a garden
at Camden Town last summer : those in the Museum I believe
were from the neighbourhood of Bristol, and I understand
that Mr. Hope has a British specimen. It is nuich attached
to the Asclepias Vincetoxiciim, which is not a native plant.

a large spot on the centre of each ; membrane bronzed brown ;
Avings fuscous. Abdomen with a large spot above at the apex
and 3 rows of spots beneath black : Legs of the same colour.
It is obvious that tliis genus differs from Lygccus Equcstris in
having a rhoniboidal head, narrowed behind, and the mem-
branes of the hemi-elytra are furrowed and not furnished with
nervures. As they approach very near to each other, I have
given the characters of both, and shall not further illustrate
them in tliis work.
Lygccus Lqucsln's anil its congeners iiaving been selected ;is
the types of the Fabrician genus by continental authors, the.
name of my genus 1121 may be altered to Heterogaster.
Corizus Ilj/osci/ami has been found by Ca|)t. Blomer, Mr.
Dale ami Mr. Morris at Charmouth, Teignniouth, Dawlish
warren and Ravengia-^s on Thistles and Restharrow, from May
20th to July 1st. 1 have taken it upon the Ononis (pi. 33'J),
near Ventnor, the 1st of August, and on sand-hills, Braunton

In the Author's and other Cabinets.
This curious insect, which is Ibund in Sweden, France, and
Germany, as well as in England, is by no means common
witli us.
It inhabits heathy places, and flics well in the heat of the
sun. The first sjiecimen I captured was flying over heath
near Lyndhurst, the end of August, and another I took the
beginning of September, near Niton in the Isle of Wight. 1
believe it has been observed in Coombe Wootl, Surrey, as
early as July, where the Broom abounds; and Mr. Dale in-
forms me that Capt. Blomer has taken it in Devonshire.
Alydus is characterized by its thick and elongated body, (as
represented by the outline figure, of the natural size at the
bottom of the plate,) as well as by the spined posterior thighs.
The A. calcaratus and t!ie A. lateralis seem to be the only
European species described. When I was in France last
summer, I took this latter species at Nismes and Marseille,
and as there is room I shall here give its characters.
A. lateralis Alirciis,fasc. 8. tab. 21.
Six lines long. Pale castaneous, clothed with short yellowish
pubescence : antenn;c black, basal joint with a red stripe on
the inside, 2nd and 3rd red, except at the tips, tth with the
base and apex reddish: hea<.l very minutely and thickly punc-
tured, blackish, with the margins and three longitudinal lines,
castaneous: thorax elytra and scutellum, thickly and coarsely
punctured, the lirst blackish before, with a yellow line on the
sides, the costa of the elytra, and the apex of the scutellum of
the same colour: abdomen red above, with the base, apex and
2 or 3 dots on each side black ; the elevatetl margins blackish,
with 5 or 6 large yellowish spots on each : underside and
thighs mottled with black and castaneous, the hinder pair
furnished with i or 5 teeth beneath : tibiif and tarsi reddish
ochre, the tips black.
This species I believe is only found in the South of Europe,
and is attacheil to the Spanish Broom which abounds there.
The Plant is Jasionc montana (Mountain Jasione).

As full generic descriptions are given on the other side, 1
shall proceed to transcribe the account transmitted to me with
a fine series of this remarkable insect by C. J. Paget, Esq. of
Great Yarmouth. " I find the Lyga^us (Chorosoma) plentifully
the latter end of August and beginning of September, at some
sand-hills, about a hundred yards from the sea, which extend
from a small village called Caistor, three miles north of this
town, for many miles along the coast, and are called Marrams.
They feed upon the Aruudo arenaria ; from the great abun-
dance of which, together with Eli/mits arc?iarius, Carcx are-
naria. Sec, all being vulgarly confounded under the common
name of Marrani-irrass, the hills take their name. This Lv-
gaeus is not easily observed, resembling in colour the florets of
the plant, which at this time of the year is precisely the same
dry and autumnal tint as the insect. I have hitherto observed
them only upon those plants which grow on the edge of the
hills nearest the sea, where I have taken three, four, and five
off one panicle."
At first si<jht this insect would be taken for one of that
group of Mirides to which Cimex dolabratiis h'lnn. belongs;
but upon examining it more carefully, it will be found to pos-
sess characters so nearly similar to those of L. microptcrus,
that, for the present at least, they may be included in the same
genus. I shall therefore subjoin its characters, &c.
2. C. microptera Xoi. — L. microjitcrus. BurrcllEiit. Trans,
p. 13. pi. 1.
Green and pilose ; the elytra and abdomen smooth and
naked. Antennie and legs rosy, especially the former. Elytra
not half the length of the body, the inferior nervures red.
Wings rudiincntarv. Abdomen very much dilated in the fe-
male, the back rose-colour, with a broken black stripe down
the centre.
First discovered in Norfolk by tlie late Rev. J. Burrell. It
was found upon grass in chalky districts in August; I have
since capturtcl it near Norwich; Mr. Paget takes it near
Yarmouth, and Mr. ISamouelle at C'oombe, SiM'rey, in June.
Antuilo arenaria (Sea Reed, Marram, Sea Mat-weed).
This plant now ibrms the genus Ammophila Host, a name
given by Mr. Kirby to a group of Ilymenoptera in the Lin-
nean Transactions ibr the year 1798.

Literatus Curt. MS S. — Guide, Gen. 1127*.
In the Cabinets of Mr. Raddon and the Author.
From the characters given by M. De Laporte in his Essay on
the Hemiptera, I believe our insect belongs to his Genus
Atractus, and on comparing it with Coreus (pi. 17 i), the
different form of the antennjc will at once present a distinctive
character. I see that M. De Laporte has placed his Coreidai
and Tingidae next to each other, and there certainly is a con-
siderable resemblance between Atractus and Aradus (pi. 230),
yet I doubt if any real affinity exists, since their oeconomy is
different and the labium and tarsi vary most materially in their
structure.
The only specimen I ever saw alive of the Genus Atractus,
I took in the neigiibourhood of Marseilles, and it probably is
the A. cineracs of Laporte. The species figured appears to
be undescribed, as it does not agree with the C. iwbilus of
Fallen and Ahrens : it was beaten off thistles and nettles by
Mr. Raddon about the middle of last September, on Braunton
Burrows in the North of Devon, and I am indebted to him
for my example.
A. literatus Curt. Brit. Ent. pi. 500.
Dull ochreous, variegated with pale green, granulated
or scabrous ; antennge with the tip of the 3rd joint as
well as the 4th and 5th black, the apex of the latter
or Gth joint whitish ; thorax with 2 oblique green ridges
parallel to the sides which appear serrated, metathorax
and base of abdomen black, the edges of the segments
and dots on the margin black ; elytra with the nervures
s.potted widi black and brown, the membranous portion
transparent, a little clouded with brown, the nervures

The broken antennae composed of only four joints, will readily
separate the genus Coreus from the Pentatomidtr^ whilst the
dilated abdomens with elevated margins will distinguish it
from other groups of the Corciche.
The different species exhibit many variations of form in the
antenna?, especially of the basal joint, in the process between
them which in some is Ijifid, in the outline of the thorax and
abdomen, as well as in the number of lobes or teeth at the
apex.
We are now able to enumerate five perfectly distinct British
species; the first of which only is common.
1. C. marginatus Limu, U'oljf. tab. 3./. 20.
Found in May and September in gardens and hedges upon
the dock. This insect has such rigid elytra and wiugs, that
when flying they create a very harsh sound.
2. C. Scapha Fab. Nub.
Amongst other characters which this insect possesses that
will distinguish it from the foregoing one, is the simple spuie
between the anteima>, which in that species Is cleft. The end
of last August I ibund the larva and two specimens at the base
of the ClilTnear Dover, and in September another in the Isle
of Wight.

ridge down the centre ; a brown stripe on each side not touch-
ing the lateral margins : scutel with an ochreous line down the
middle and a short one on each side : elytra pale ochreous green,
excepting the costa : back of abdomen bronzed-black, excepting
the margins and an ochreous line at the apex : tarsi with the
joints brown at the tips.
It is now fifteen years since I illustrated several genera be-
lonf^ing to this family, and called the attention of naturalists
to the structure of the antennae. At that time, Fallen's little
work and WolfI''s Icones with Panzer's figures were the prin-
cipal aids we had to guide us through the various tribes of this
intricate order. Since then M. De Laporte has given a valu-
able Systematic Classification of the Hemiptera, and Hahn
has published a considerable portion of his Die Wanzenarti-
gen Insecten. Dr. Burmeister has also an able memoir upon
the classification of the Geocorisae of Latreille in the Revue
Entomologique, in which he rejects the antennae as characters
to be employed in the grouping of the Aspidotae or Pentato-
midae of this work. 1 am very reluctant to give up the an-
tennae as generic characters in this order, having found them
very useful if not infallible guides in the grouping of our Bri-
tish species : it would however be idle to discuss this subject
generally, until the foreign tribes, which are very numerous,
are fully investigated, as it is in them that Dr. Burmeister has
found the antenna) of allied species to be very inconstant.
The following table will serve to group the British Penta-
tomidie :
1. Scutellum not covering the abdomen.
Tarsi biarticulate Acanthosoma pi. 28.
Tarsi triarticulate.
Legs smooth.
Head elongate trijjonate ^lia TO*
Head oblong Pkntatoma 20
Legs spiny Cydnus 7t
2. Scutellum nearly covering the abdomen Tetyr A 685
and the characters of the subgenera will be found in the ac-
companying tblio. I may add that Hahn has divided our
Pentatomas into Tropicoris, lalla, Eysarcoris^ and Struchiuy
which are distinguished by the antenna^.
The only species of yTllia inhabiting England is acuminata,
which is not common. I have taken sjiecimens on long grass
at Caistor Marrams near Cireat Yarmouth in June, and in
August and September in cornfields near Niton in tlie Isle of
Wight. In May it has been found on Ferns and the Royal
Moonwort, Osmunda regalis, the plant represented in the
plate.

Nothing probably has contributed more in this country to
the elucidation of neglected tribes of insects, than the miscel-
laneous form in which this work has been published, by which
means the attention of the student has been invited to the in-
vestigation of every order, and even the Lepidopterist was
often induced to extend his researches beyond the beautiful
objects to which he was devoted.
In May 1824- I found on studying Pentatoma that it was
656
composed of groups exliibiting good generic characters, one
of whicli I proposed to name Acaiithosuma, in allusion to the
spined keel on the underside; and if' it be not a remarkable
circumstance, it is a proof of the negligence of the German
writers, when we find Hahn giving a new name to the same
group ten years after it had been established in this work, and
adopted by Laporte and Burmeister. Another peculiar mark
of distinction is the biarticulate tarsi, which however are re-
presented distinctly triarticidate in Hahn's figure, 158.
Tiie larvge of this family have no wings, and the pupa? have
rudiments only; they generally resemble the imago in colour,
are very active, and emit a very disagreeable scent when
touched: in every stage they live upon the juices obtained
from small insects, especially caterpillars.
When the first edition was published, there were only three
British species of Acanthosoma discovered, and now five are
recorded.
1. hiemorrhoidalis Linn. — Curt. Brit. Ent. pi. 28. c^.
By no means a rare insect, inhabiting the white-thorn
flowers in June, and found in hedges and plantations in Oc-
tober.
2. liturata Fab. — Panz. \0. 19. length 4^ lines.
Similar to No. 1 : elytra green niari:iiiecl with red, excepting the costa ;
mcnihrane and wings hyaline, fornuT with a brown ])atch on the costa.
This and the following species seem to have been con-
founded, the descri})tions and figures consequently often suit
both and yet difl'er materially. Fountl in ^lay in Birch and
Coomb-woods, and in August on larch trees, in a plantation
on Shirley common.
3. j)icta Liiin. Cab. pictipennis Nevo. — lituratus Wul.t. 2. f. J 4.
Beautiful green : hinder angles of thorax and coriaceous portion of elytra
hright red, excepting the costa : membrane hyaline, with a wavy fuscous
striga and a brown dot between it and the elytron : wings fuscous, tips
hvaline: abdomen black above, margin and apex green : length I] lines.
March and April, abundant on junipers in Birch-wood ; end
of August on larch trees, with No. 2. Mr. Davis.
4-. agathina jpa6, — achatinus Wolff, t. 6./. 55. — length .31 lines.
Greenish-ochre, with black punctures; a broad transverse piceous and
rosy band on the scutel ; margins of abdomen spotted with black ; tips of
antenn;e piceous.
Bef:inninfjof.June, Darent-wood, 31st Augi on larch trees.
5. grisea Linn. F. S. n. 926.— Panz. 33.17?— /ro///.' /. 6./ 56 ?
" (iriseous with deep scattered punctures : scutel more luscous towards
the base ; wings clouded with fuscous; antenna' blackish-fiiscous : back
of abdomen black, margins whitish, spotted with black." length 7^ lines?
Never having seen this species, I cannot be certain that it
belongs to this geiuis : the spine, if correctly rejiresentctl by
Wolfl", is very difl'erent to that oi Acanthosumrj. Mr. Davis
informed me that he took a specimen the 31st Aug. on a larch
tree in a plantation on Shirley connnon, anil that he found
at the same time all the other species.
The plant is Mcrcurialis pcrcnnis mas, Dogs' Meiciiry.

In the Author s and other Cabinets.
Few orders present a greater variety of outline or more beautiful
sculpture than the European Hemiptera, and even the Coleoptera
and Lepidoptera cannot exceed many of the Indian and South
American species in the brilliancy and powerful opposition of their
colours. With such attractions, therefore, it is not a little surpri-
sing that in this country they should have been totally disregarded,
and whilst on the one hand we have been assisted by IVIarsham's
Coleoptera, and on the other by Haworth's Lepidoptera, we have
no guide to the Hemiptera, except in the rare and incomplete works
of our continental neighbours. Such were my remarks in May,
1824', and as the same are still applicable, I can only refer to M.
DeLaporte's Monograph, an excellent memoir by Dr. Burmeister
in the Revue Entomologique, and to Hahn, who has divided Pen-
tatoma into the following genera, distinguished apparently by the
657
neuration of the membrane and l)y the antennae, which however are
subject to iTieat variation.
Arm A Hiihn. Second and folloriUnng joints nearly of equal le?igt/i.
I. bidens Li7in. 2. Custos Fab. 3. lurida Fab.
Tropicoris Hahn. Third joint the longest.
4. rufipes Linn. (Fig. 4 A.)
Pentatoma Lat. Second joint longest^ third shortest, but variable.
5. nigricornis Fab. 6. niargineguttata Hahn. 7. Lynx Fab.
8. Baccarum Linn. 9. dissimilis Fab. 10. prasina Linn.
II. Juniperina Z/i'nw. 2. coerulea Z//«n. (Fig. C.)
Jalla Hahn. Antenna stout and vert/ pubescent.
13. dumosa Linn.
Eysarcoris Hahn. Fifth joint longest and stoutest.
14. perlata Fab. 15. melaiioceplinla Fab.
16. punctata Linn. 17. infiexa JVuljJ'.
Strachia Hahn. Fourth and ffth joints as long as and stouter than
the antecedent.
18. oleracca Linn. 19. picta Fab.
20. festiva Linn. 21. ornata Linn.
SciocoRis Fall. Fourth and fifth joints the longest.
22. umbrina Wolf.
P. margincguttata. Mr. Paget gave me a specimen which he
found in a garden at Great Yarmouth upon Ruscus aculeatus (pi.
489.).
P. ccerulea flies well in the sunshine, and is to be met with on the
leaves of plants in the heat of the day. I have taken it in June
near Ambleside ; July, Coombe-wood ; September, on heath near
Linton, Devon ; and at Niton on the Wormwood.
In the cabinet of the Zoological Society is a species from Dr.
Leach, bearing the name of P. picta : it agrees tolerably well with
the Fabrician (lescription, but I believe that Dr. L. was not satisfied
of its authenticity as a British specimen.
The plant is Erysimum chciranthoidcs, Treacle Worm-seed.

teriorly, with the angles rounded. Abdomen ovate, somewhat orbi-
cular, depressed, margined. Scutellum large, not covering the wings
or elytra. Elytra coriaceous, membranaceous at the apex, crossing
each other horizontally. Tibiae robust, spinulose, not notched. Tarsi

of thorax and external margin of elytra pale straw-colour : mar-
gin of abdomen alternately black and straw-colour. Head,
thorax and scutellum coarsely punctured ; elytra more thickly
and minutely punctured.
In the Cabinets of the British Museum and Mr. Stephens.
Fabricius established this group as a genus in his Systema
Rhyngotorum, but Latreille has only made it a principal divi-
sion of his genus Pentatoma. Dr. Leach by some accident
has stated in his characters of the genus Cydnus^ that the 2nd
joint of the antenna? is longer than tlie 3rd ; an error into
which lie was probably led by his having examined Pentatoma
Oleracca, which he gave as the type of the genus Cjjdnus, but
which in reality belongs to the 3rd division (C.) o{ Pentatoma
(vide folio 20). Tlie relative proportions of the joints of the
anternia?]are most important characters here ; and it so happens
that the 2nd joint is never longer, but generally shorter than
the 3rd ; and it is not so in Pentatoma^ as will be seen by re-
ferring to plate 20, except in division A, which comes nearest
to Cijdnus in this respect ; and there it arises from the 3rd joint
being the longest of all, which is not the case in Ci/dnus : the
absence of the notch in the anterior tibiae, and all the legs
being spined, are other very essential characters.
There are 7 or 8 British species of this genus: viz. 1. C. f)i-
color L. ; 2. viorio L ; 3. marginatus ? 4. biguttatiis L. ;
5. albo-marghiatus F. ; 6. diibius Scop. ; and a species in the
cabinet of Mr. Stephens, larger than C. morio, but closely
allied to it. The habits of these insects are like those of the
kindred genera : several of the species are common. They are
found upon plants in June, and frequently are to be seen in
gravel-pits, into which they have accidentally fallen. Of the
species figured I have seen but 2 specimens ; one in the British'
JVIuseum, from w hich the drawing was made, the t)thcr (which
is of a duller colour) is in Mr. Stephens's cabinet.
Fabricius in his synonyms lo Cj/dtnis niorio, includes figure
1 1 of the 57th table of Schaeffer's Iconcs, which is a blue in-
sect with a pale margin, whereas, to agree with his description
it ought to be entirely black, with the exception of tlie rufous
tarsi. There can be little doubt but this figure represents the
C. duhius of Scopoli, and as such it is named by Panzer in his
Sj/stt'/natic Nomenclature of Scha^ft'cr's Icones, page 75.
The plant figured is Arabis turrita (Tower Wall-cress),
communicated by Professor Henslow, from the walls of
Trinitv and St. John's Collcjxes, Cambridije.

stout and pubescent, the latter twice as long as the 4th (4).
Labrum long slender and attenuated, transversely sulcated (3).
Labium long horny hoUow and 4-jointed, basal joint the stout-
est, oblong, 2nd twice as long but slenderer, 3rd shorter than
the 1st, 4th about the same length, a little attenuated, rounded
and hairy at the apex (2*).
Rostrum long, received into a groove beneath the head, and reaching
to the hinder coxa (2). Head large, trigonate-ovate, the sides sharp,
immersed to the Eyes, which are small, lateral, prominent and sub-
reniform : ocelli 2, placed near the base of the head, remote from
the eyes (1* the head in profile). Thorax transverse, subellij)tic,
being truncated and narrowed before and behind, the sides forming 2
rounded angles : scutellum very large, as broad as the thorax, semi-
ovate, convex, not covering the margins of the abdomen, but extend-
ing to the apex. Elytra and wings concealed beneath the scutel,
the former as long as the body, with a small portion of the base cori-
aceous, the remainder dilated rounded and membranous, with nu-
merous faint nervures at the apex (9) .- the latter rather shorter, but
ample, with several nervures radiating from the base (*). Abdomen
nearly orbicular, the margins thin. Legs rather short, hinder thighs
the longest : tibiae with minute spines, hinder the longest and spiny
only inside : tarsi equal, short and triarticulate, pubescent beneath,
basal joint clavate, 2nd very short somewhat obovate, Brd as long as
the 1st and stouter : claws simple, pulvilli small (6, afore leg).
FuLiGiNosA Lin7i. — Curt. Guide, Gen. 1134. 4.
Piceous, thickly and minutely punctured, clothed with short
coarse hairs ; antennae brown Mdth the basal joint as long as
the 5th, 3rd rather the shortest ; head with 2 furrows down the
front : thorax with a notch on each side towards the base, the
hinder half ochreous spotted with brown, with a narrow ochre-
ous line down the centre, an impression across the middle join-
ing a deep channel down each side, disjointed at the centre,
where there is a little fovea ; scutel ochreous, with brown punc-
tures and irregular marks, leaving a light line down the middle,
which divides a triangular piceous spot at the base, and an orbi-
cular dead black one towards the apex, on each side at the base
is a black streak and a similar one at the centre ; sides of the
abdomen black spotted with ochre ; coxae, trochanters and tarsi
dull ochreous, the latter inclining to brown.
The disagreeable appellation which has been given to this
tribe of insects, associated as it is with the House-bug, renders
them by no means favourites with most of us; nevertheless they
are well deserving the attention of the naturalist; their oeco-
nomy is interesting, their structure curious, and their colours
in many of the exotic species are not surpassed by the most
splendid Butterflies.
In M. De Laporte's Essay, the few insects included by us
under Tetyra are divided into many genera, as well as by
11 ahn, the essential characters of which I shall subjoin.
I. Legs very spini/. A. Antennae inserted under the eyes.

I swept a pair of this rare insect off short grass and He-
dypnois on the sand-hills near Sanihvich, the 9th August ;
Mr. Skrimshire took it once on the sand-hills at Burnham in
Norfolk, and Mr. Butcher of Lowestoft gave me a specimen
which he captured on the sands to the north of that town.

One, if not more specimens, were found several years since
by Dr. Lindley, in a nursery-ground at Catton in Norfolk: as
it is a common insect in France, it might have been imported
with plants. It is attached to Eldcr-Howers, but I found it in
abundance in June, near Toulouse, on Heraclcum laciniatum.
The Plant is Tamarix gallica, French Tamarisk.

In the Cabinet of the British Museum.
We must content ourselves with referring to Kirby and
Spence's Introduction to Entomology and to Latreille's His-
toire Natiirelle (tome 14.) tor tlie history and various amusing
nnc-cdotes of the Flea, aiul for figures of the hirva and pupa,
to Shaw's Naturalist's Mlscelhniy (plate 178), and shall proceed
to explain the dissections at the bottom of our plate.
A. Rejiresents the head of Pulcx Canis in profile, with the
trophi in a natural position. — B. The tropin seen from
above. — C. The same from beneath, showing the lip or
membrane connecting the base of the labial palpi. —
1). One of the niaxilliv, and a palpus attached to it. —
E. The trophi in profile, with the niaxilhe and their
palpi removed to show the origin of the other organs. —
8. The tarsus belonging to a fore leg.
No insect has been more repeatedly examined, or oftener
figuretl than the Flea; yet so incorrectly has it been repre-
sented, that most of tlie figures tend only to mislead the in-
(juirer : the consequence of which (combined with the difficulty
of examining the mouth) has been, that the o])inions enter-
tained by authors with regard to its affinities are very un-
settled. Having had the good fortune some years since to
discover the tongue (which had never been noticed or figured
until the publication of the Iiitrudtiction to Kntomol(p^xj\ I
have been induced to make further investigations, the result of
which has produced a view of the subject different to that
which has hitherto been held.
The cavity behind the eye, which appears to be partly closed
by a small lobe that may be distinctly seen to rise and fall, I
am disposed to believe is an organ of resjiiration rather than
the analogue of the antenna as suspected by my friend INIons.
Latreille; and the absence of spiracula^ down the sides of the
abdomen strengthens my opinion. Little as we know of the
uses of the antenna' beyond the sense of touch, it is impossible
to say that the maxillary palpi may not perform in this order
the office of antenna*, and that the orifice behind the eye may
not be also ailapted to hearing.
We believe SipJioiuiptcra will be found comiected with the
last family of the Homoptcra, and the first of the Diptcra, the
absence of wings as well as the structure of the rostrulum being
analogous to the former; the habit ot" its larva, its economy,
metamorjihosis, and the trojihi being very similar to the latter.
As there is no doubt but all our wild (juailrupeds have
a distinct species of Pulcx belonging to each, we may expect
to add many to those already discovered. Our species, the
largest I have seen, like the animal it inhabits, has a minute
eye, which is oblong and of a ferruginous colour: the specimen
figured was taken the latter end of May in Hattersea Fields
by Dr. Leach, and Mr. Saiuouelle having no doubt but it is
the same as some taken by Mr. \\'eatherhead off a ]Mole in
June, I have named it after that animal.
The plant figured is Aster Tripolium, var. /3. (Sea Starwort),
flowers without ray.

Aptera Linn., Lam., Leach.
Type of the Genus, Pulex Hirundinis Sam.
Ceuatophyllus Curtis. — Pulex of Authors.
Antenna inserted on each side the crown of the head, concealed
in a cavity behind the eyes when at rest, as long as the head,
slightly attenuated, 4-jointed, basal joint conic- truncate furnished
with a few long bristles at the apex, 2nd longer, 3rd subglobose,
4th small subovate (A. I).
Labrum none.
Mandibles long slender, compressed and transparent (E. d).
Tongue as long as the mandibles, slender, linear and transpa-
rent (c).
MaxillcE (D. e) lateral, coriaceous, slightly acuminated at the
apex and shorter than the Palpi which are attached to the base ;
they are long rather robust and 4-jointed, 2nd and 4th joints a
little the longest, 3rd and 4th slightly pilose, the latter ovate at
the apex (f).
Labium ? somewhat cup-shaped, from the apex of which arise
the Palpi which are as long as the mandibles, slender, producing
a few hairs and 4-jointed, 2nd joint small, 3rd the longest, 4th
furnished with a few bristles at the apex (k).
Head small, compressed and rounded, sometimes ciliated with strong
bristles. Eyes small lateral (A). Thorax composed of several seg-
ments. Abdomen elongated in the female, subclavate, compressed
formed of several rings divided laterally. Legs, anterior short, pos-
terior the longest, formed for leaping. Coxae very large. Thighs
short subovate compressed. Tibiae rather short and pilose. Tarsi
longer than the tibice, pilose and 5 -jointed, basal joint the longest.
Claws slender and acute, incurved at the base, (8 $, hind tibia and
tarsus) .
Elongatus Curtis's Guide, Gen. 1136. 11.
Ochreous, variegated with ferruginous, shining, elongated and
attenuated towards the head which is not ciliated : antennae
subclavate, pilose 8-jointed, 1st and 2nd joints large, the former
obovate, the latter subquadrate, 3rd narrower, the remainder
forming an ovate club composed of 4 rings and an apical joint (lb),
eyes undiscovered : maxillae black ; segments of the thorax and

In the Author's Cabinet.
It is now upwards of six years since I illustrated the genus
Pulex (vol. 3. ll*.), and by repeated examinations made bv
mv friends and myself, I lind it necessary to divide the Piilices
into two genera. I am the more desirous to publish this ge-
nus that the structure of the antennce may be made known to
the student, and consequently a better idea given him of the
affinities of this remarkable little Order.
It is necessary to observe, that the P. TalpcpRguved in pi. lid-.
does not belong to the genus Pulex but to Ceratophyllus, and
my friend Mr. Ilaliday having discovered the antennae of
Pulex Canis, 1 have copied it from his drawing into the present
plate (fig. l.d.). As this discovery confirms the opinion of
Mons. Latreille, the 4<th paragraph on the second page of the
1 14th folio should be erased. jNIr. Haliday in his letter to
me observes, " In investigating the analogy between Cordijla
and Mijcctuphila nigra on the one hand and Pulex on the other,
I was led to the discovery of the antennic of the latter genus;
they are situate nearly as in Ccratophijllus, but entirely covered
by the frontal plate, are shorter than in it, very flat and
2-jointed ; the first joint has a bristle near its internal apex,
and the other is crowned with spines such as distinguish the
incisures of the trunk."
I believe the following British species belong to my genus
Ceratophyllus.
1. C. Talpse Curt. Brit. Knt. pi. 114. $ .
Antennae elongate-ovate, pilose 10-jointed, basal joint ovate-
truncate, the remainder forming rings, (B. 1 c. front view of
head with the palpi and antennae, as well as one of the latter
detached and more magnified).
Mr. C. A. Johnson gave me a specimen found on a Hat,
which appears to be the same as that from the Mole, and
from this animal I have a smaller species which seems to be
very different from C. Talpa.
2. C. Miiris Curt. — Ofl' the Mouse.
3. C. Mclis Lea.— Off the Badger.
4. C. Sciurorum Olf. — Off the Squirrel.
5. C. Erinacei Lea. — Off the Hedgehog.
6. C. Lcporis Lea. — From tlie Hare.
7. C. Colunibie Ste. — Off Pigeons.
8. C. bifasciatus Curt. — Off a Sand-martin.
9. C. Hirundinis Sam. — Fig. A. head in profile, with the antennae erect
and the trophi separated. D. a maxilla and jmlpus. E. the man-
dibles, tongue, labium and palpi. 8 ? , the hind tibia and tarsus.
— On Swallows in June.
10. C. Sturni Dale. — Curt. — Middle of May, on young Starlings.
11. C. clongatus Curt. Brit. Knt. pi. 417- ? • fi'J- 1- b, an antenna. — Ort
the Yellow Bat.
12. C. Vesjiertilionis -Sow. — Found on Bats by Mr. Gray.
13. C. fasciatus Lat. H. N. 14. 412.— Off the Rat.
14. C. trifasciatus Curt. — Off a Bat, the smallest species I have seen.
The Plant is Erigeron acre (Blue Fleabane).
