24 ANNALS OF SCOTTISH NATURAL HISTORY<br />
Cairngorm, Glenmore Forest, in June 1895. Hitherto this<br />
species has been referred to under the name of C. rufibarbis,<br />
Mg., but as Meigen's description of auribarbis was printed<br />
on an earlier page in his " Systematische Beschreibung "<br />
than that of rnfibarbis, both being now regarded as the same<br />
species, the name here used must in future serve as the<br />
correct designation. I am indebted to Mr. Ernest E. Austen,<br />
of the British Museum, for drawing my attention to this<br />
point.<br />

Kingussie, July 1898 (Yerbury); three males and three<br />
females, Aviemore, July 1898 (Yerbury); seven males and<br />
seven females, Nethy Bridge, August 1898 (Yerbury); one<br />
male, Kingussie, July 1899 (Yerbury) seven males and two<br />
;<br />
females, Aviemore, July 1899 (Yerbury). I have followed<br />
Austen ("Ent. Mo. Mag.," 1898, pp. 36-38) in referring this<br />
handsome species to pudicus, Rond. Whether Fallen's<br />
htzmorrhoidalis is the same species seems to be still<br />
open to<br />
doubt if it is, then Rondani's name must be sunk as a<br />
synonym. At present<br />
it seems safer to call the insect pudicus,<br />
always bearing in mind that even its generic position may<br />
be called in question. For further particulars the note by<br />
Austen (I.e.]<br />
should be consulted<br />
