. Fig. 46. Wing of P. notata $. at Køge by Prof. Ad. Jensen and at Strandby on Lolland by L. Jør- gensen, the imagines developed likewise in February and March, but probably the development was more or less accelerated. The few specimens I have netted, were taken in low herbage. The species is at all events an early spring-species and seems to have only one brood in the year, as also suggested by Schmitz (Biol. Zentralbl. 37, 1917, 34) for the nearly related P. maculata. Geographical distribution: — The species is hitherto known from Sweden, Denmark, England and Switzerland, towards the north

Geographical distribution: — The species is hitherto known from Sweden, Denmark, England and Switzerland, towards the north to Southern Sweden; if P. piinctipennis Zett. is the present species, it goes down to Malta. Remarks: The species notata Zett. has never been accepted, but united with maculata Meig. The two species are also very similar and related, and moreover maculata Zett. (nec Meig.) is also notata, but the species are at once distinguished by the character that macu- lata has only three bristles on bind tibiæ, notata four as there is a dorsal bristle near apex not found in maculata; it was the differently shaped puparia which led me to detect the difference of the species, and the name I was al/le to settle with certainty, as I had the oppor- tunity of examining Zetterstedt's type specimens which are in our collection.
