its stages, the references in the J""k Catalogus covering two entire 

 pages. The larva, fide Lyonet (Rech. s. I'anat., 1832, p. 112), feeds on 

 the dead leaves, in which adult larvae have been found in May; but 

 Perris (I\Iem. Soc. Sc, Liege, 1855, p. 255), thought this view con- 

 testable on account of the affinities observed with larvae of Silphidse 

 and Dermestidje and suggested that the food was more probably dead 

 or living animal matter, hidden in the leaves. 



As the list of our species of Lagriidae contained in Junk Catalogue, 

 1910, is greatly increased, a list of the species now known is added.
