72 NOTES ON CERTAIN CEYLONESE COLEOPTERA (cLAVICORNIA). 



The type of this species, which Walker placed in the genus 

 Prognatha of the family Staphylinidse, is in good preservation, 

 and perfectly agrees with si^ecimens hi I lateralis received from 

 Motschulsky, by the late Mr. Andrew Murray.

 This species should be referred to the preceding family.

I think it very probable that this species will be found in New 



South Wales. It is caught among feathers, hides, &c., and has 



already been received from Ceylon, N. E. Borneo, and Java.
