iS ANNALS OF SCOTTISH NATURAL HISTORY also measured the specimen, with the following results : Length from snout to tip of tail, in a straight line, i 3 feet iCHj inches; length of tail, 6 feet 11 inches; colour, light bluish slate ; sex, male ; pupil of eye elongated. [The only previous occurrence in the Firth of Forth known to us is that of a " fine specimen " captured in Largo Bay in August 1842 ("Nat. Lib. Brit. Fishes," ii. p. 313). EDS.] DIPTERA SCOTICA: II. INVERNESS-SHIRE. By PERCY H. GRIMSHAW, F.E.S. THE remarks made by me in the first two paragraphs of the first paper of this series ("Annals," 1899, pp. 84-85) will apply equally to the present contribution. In presenting this second instalment, I would again draw attention to the great paucity of information concerning the distribution of Diptera in <strong>Scotland</strong>, this being especially shown forth by the fact that I have been unable to find, after careful search,
DIPTERA SCOTICA : II. INVERNESS-SHIRE 19 more than a single record referring to the present county, although I have examined the more important entomological and other magazines from the years 1831 to 1899 inclusive! The record in question is that referring to the Gall-midge, Hormomyia juniperina, L. Galls of this species on branches of the common juniper were exhibited by Professor Thomas King at a meeting of the Glasgow Natural History Society on the 3Oth September 1890, and were stated to have been obtained at Boat of Garten. For the present list of 173 species I am much indebted to my friends Mr. Wm. Evans, Mr. L. W. Hinxman, Mr. Wm. Eagle Clarke, the Rev. E. N. Bloomfield, and above all, Lieut.-Col. J. W. Yerbury, to all of whom I here tender my grateful thanks. The interesting and well-preserved collections formed by the last-named gentleman form indeed the "backbone" of the present contribution, and I am glad to have the present opportunity of publicly acknowledging the debt under which he has placed me through his great generosity. All the specimens mentioned in the present paper under his name have been presented by him to the Edinburgh Museum, and hence have been examined by me. Since the list was made up, a further consignment, containing many interesting additions, has been received from the same source, and these will form a valuable supplement published later.
