" 28-punctata inhabit the Malay Archipelago. The species peculiar to 

 " Japan, exclusive of Scymnus, are very few. Seven species are com- 

 " mori to TVesterii Europe, sLv of them being British." 



I have added the localities in such species as do not appear to be 

 generally distributed and coiumou ; and have marked * such as have 

 been also found in China by myself. 



1. Haemonia impustulata, L. (Motschoulsky). 



2. CocciKELLA 7-PUis'CTATA,* L. Typical specimens. 



3. „ 12-MACULATA,* Grebl. 



4. „ TKAKSYEESOGUTTATA, Fald. (Motschoulsky). 



var. Sedakovii, Muls. 



5. „ AXTRIDIS,* Pall. 



Of my captures of this insect Mr. Crotch re- 

 " marks as follows : " This fine series enables me 

 " to unite the numerous forms described by Mul- 

 " sant and others under fifteen specific names, 

 " and even referred to five of that author's genera 

 " (^Sarmonia, Anatis, Leis, Daulis, Lemnia) ; the 

 " variations are precisely like those of C. varia- 

 " hilis, which C. axyridis resembles also in the 

 " presence of an apical fold in the elytra (not,, 

 "however, constant)." 



6. „ ' JAPONICA, Crotch (iyj. «.). Maiyasan, Hiogo ; 2 spe- 



cimens. 



7. Calvia 15-guttata, Fab. (Mr. Saunders). 



8. Anisocalvia (Crotch, g. n.) 14-guttata, L. 



9. Illeis cincta, Fab. 



10. ViBiniA 12-GUTTATA,* Poda. 



11. Lets 15-maculata,* Hope : Nagasaki. 



12. Stnonycha GEANDiSjThuub.; Nagasaki, 3 specimens, August, 1869. 



13. Peopylea conglobata, L. 



Mr. Crotch remarks that the variations in this 

 species (which also occurs in China) are unpa- 

 rallelled, some forms of it having been placed by 

 Mulsant also in Sarmonia and Lemnia. 



14. Yerania discoloe,* Fabr. : Nagasaki. 



15. Chilome>"es 4-plagiata,* Sch. 



This species extends even to Australia.
