LAMELLICORNIA. Last three joints of the antennae lamelliform, 

 or in the Lucanidae pectinate. 



The larvae are wood -eaters, and with the perfect insect also 

 scavengers ; many also in the latter state flower- and leaf -eaters. 

 The subfamily Cetoniinse is often treated as a distinct family ; it 

 is differentiated chiefly by the position of the meso thoracic epi- 

 mera. [The first twelve genera in the following list belong to 

 this subfamily.] Lucanidas are sometimes ranked as a separate 

 group, under the name of Pectinicornia. In both families there 

 are extraordinary developments of either mandibles, head, or 

 thorax. Trictenotomidaa are an anomalous group, considered by 

 some to be allied to the Prionidse.
