_Noctuæ._--One _Grammodes stolida_ (Battlefield of Omdurman), exactly like the Hope Specimens from India. One dubious specimen, probably a species of _Pandesema_ (on gunboat near Shabluka). _Bombycidæ._--One small female moth (Luxor), somewhat resembling _Trichiura cratægi_. _Tineina._--Three small pale specimens (two, on gunboats near Metemmeh; one, Wad Hamed). NEUROPTERA. _Trichoptera._--A few species, very pale in colour (Luxor and Abu Ahmed). COLEOPTERA. One Cicindela. A very small and pale species, not represented in the Hope Collection (Wad Hamed). One Buprestid, namely, _Sternocera irregularis_. A large brown species, with irregular tufts of straw-coloured hair on elytra and thorax (Um Teref). One Longicorn. A large black shining _Prionus_, not represented in Hope Collection. Heteromera. Two species, as yet uncompared with Hope Collection. Two Lamellicorns, apparently _melolontha_, or very similar. HEMIPTERA. One immature form of a large species, pale in colour. HOMOPTERA. Fulgoridæ. One small pale species. ORTHOPTERA. Gryllidæ. Two pale species. Acridiidæ. Two pale species. HYMENOPTERA. One winged ant--dark, with sand-coloured patches. ARACHNIDA--ARANEINA. Six species of spiders. One of these is a beautiful mimic of an ant. The above list is necessarily imperfect. It had to be compiled immediately for the publication of this volume, and there has been no time to properly "work out" many of the species. It is interesting to note the pale tint of so many of these Sudanese insects--a manifest adaptation to environment, for purposes of concealment amid the yellow sand of the desert.
