roughly sculptured resembling rather an jEgialia, but not verrucose, 

 the punctures being very coarse and deep and somewhat confluent. 

 The thorax is totally black, the elytra brownish-piceous with pale 

 patches as follows ; sutural interval, apical margin extending by a nar- 

 row band half way to humerus, a very small patch on each side 

 of scutellum, a small humeral spot at base of fifth and sixth intervals, 

 a small linear spot on the fourth interval behind the preceding and a 

 small V-like spot on the third and fourth intervals at about one-fourth 

 from the apex. The markings resemble those of covgregatus but each 

 portion smaller. The hind tibiae are moderately stout. Hind tarsi 

 ■with first joint shorter than longer spur and not equal to the two fol- 

 lowing joints together* 



In general aspect the species resembles a small dark colored variety 

 of pardalis in which I had placed it previous to the present review 

 and having been recognised as distinct was so carefully placed away 

 as to have been practically lost at the time the Aphodius portion was 

 written. 



One specimen in my cabinet from California. 



In the preceding portion of this paper numerous errors have been 

 allowed to pass i nnoticed some of them of trifling moment others seri- 

 ous. All are the result of not revising the proof after the first correc- 

 tion by the printer. Trans. Ent. Soc. 1870.
