- Since this list was in print Lamostenus compla-
itatus, Dej., a recent addition to the British fauna, has been recorded by Mr. Champion as having been taken by Com. J. J. Walker, R.N., at Chatham in 1874., and also by Professor Hudson Beare from Strood ; it is very closely allied to Pristonychus terri- cola, with which it has been mixed in collections. — W. W. F. 127
