  It 
  is 
  uncertain 
  whether 
  Adelotopus 
  collaris 
  Waterhouse, 
  from 
  

   Siam, 
  should 
  be 
  placed 
  in 
  this 
  genus. 
  It 
  is 
  the 
  only 
  species 
  de- 
  

   scribed 
  from 
  anywhere 
  but 
  Australia, 
  whereas 
  Cryptocephalomorpha 
  

   gaverei 
  Ritsema 
  is 
  known 
  from 
  Java.

  If 
  examination 
  of 
  the 
  type 
  

   shows 
  the 
  species 
  to 
  belong 
  here, 
  it 
  may 
  be 
  distinguished 
  as 
  follows. 
  

   A 
  specimen 
  of 
  Cryptocephalomorpha

  Ritsema), 
  which 
  has 
  been 
  compared 
  with 
  the 
  type, 
  was 
  

   obtained 
  through 
  the 
  kindness 
  of

  Genus 
  PSEUDOMORPHA

  The 
  material 
  at 
  hand 
  in 
  this 
  genus 
  includes 
  representatives 
  of 
  

   all 
  the 
  described 
  species 
  with 
  the 
  exception 
  of 
  cylindrica 
  Casey 
  

   from 
  North 
  America 
  and 
  laevissima 
  Chaudoir, 
  gerstaeckeri 
  Chau- 
  

   doir, 
  and 
  argentine 
  Steinheil, 
  from 
  South 
  America. 
  The 
  author 
  

   was 
  kindly 
  allowed 
  the 
  privilege 
  of 
  examining 
  the 
  type 
  of 
  cylin- 
  

   drica 
  in 
  the 
  collection 
  of 
  its 
  describer. 
  

  

  Laevissima 
  Chaudoir, 
  gerstaeckeri 
  Chaudoir 
  and 
  hiibbardi 
  Not- 
  

   man, 
  are 
  probably 
  distinguishable 
  by 
  an 
  impunctuate 
  thorax. 
  The 
  

   remaining 
  species 
  fall 
  into 
  several 
  series 
  by 
  characters 
  of 
  the 
  head. 
  

   In 
  angustata 
  Horn, 
  champlaini 
  Notman, 
  schwarzi 
  Notman, 
  con- 
  

   fusa 
  Notman, 
  and 
  cylindrica 
  Casey, 
  there 
  is 
  a 
  well-marked 
  trans- 
  

   verse 
  row 
  of 
  coarser 
  punctures 
  on 
  the 
  occiput 
  which 
  is 
  lacking 
  or 
  

   indistinct 
  in 
  the 
  others, 
  including 
  hubbardi 
  Notman,. 
  In 
  another 
  

   series 
  the 
  front 
  margin 
  of 
  the 
  head 
  between 
  the 
  eye 
  and 
  the 
  base 
  

   of 
  the 
  mandibles 
  forms 
  a 
  very 
  distinct 
  lobe, 
  which 
  is 
  arcuate 
  and 
  

   usually 
  more 
  prominent 
  at 
  its 
  anterior 
  end 
  near 
  the 
  mandibles. 
  

   In 
  cronkhitei 
  Horn 
  and 
  excrucians

  the
