LIST OF THE COLEOPTEBA OBSERVED IN THE 

 VICINITY OF CINCINNATI. 



By Charles Ddry. 



In presenting this list, a few remarks may be appropriate regarding 

 the habits of some of the species mentioned, and the peculiar localities 

 in which they were found. This vicinity, with its diversified surface 

 and abundant vegetation, is very rich in insects of several orders, and 

 particularly so in Coleoptera. The collections from which the list was 

 taken, were mostly made within a radius of three or four miles around 

 the city, including the Kentucky side of the Ohio river, and in no in- 

 stance over ten miles away. In addition to the species enumerated, 

 quite a number of new ones have been taken, and several new 

 genera. Prof. J. M. Crawford, Mr. C. G. Siewers, Prof. A. G. Wether- 

 by, Harold B. Wilson, and L. R. Freeman, have added many species 

 to the list. To Dr. Geo. H. Horn, of Philadelphia, I am under great 

 obligations for the determination of many species. To Mi". Henry 

 Ulke, of Washington, D. C, I am also obliged.
