7. Teracolus phlegetonia. 



$ . Antliocaris phlegetonia, Boisduval, Sp. Gen. Lep., 1, p. 576, n. 

 25 (1836). 



The female chiefly differs from that sex of T. minans in the wider 

 black stripe across the orange area of the primaries, and the marking 

 of the secondaries above, exactly like that of the male T. JSione from 

 South Africa ; on the under-surface the greyish stripe across the 

 orange area of the primaries is far less distinct, and the secondaries 

 are altogether paler. Expanse of wings, 43 mm. 



One female example. 



This concludes, so far as is at present known, the species to be 

 obtained at Accra.

VII. COLJEOPTERA. 



Collected by the Rev. A. E. Eaton in 1880. 



BY H. W. BATES, F.E.S., AND D. SHARP, M.B. 



[The Coleoptcra collected by Mr. Eaton may probaby prove not of 

 so much importance as the insects of other Orders, in consequence of 

 the beetle-fauna of the country having already been much studied. 

 "We think it advisable, however, to give a list of the species captured, 

 with localities, and more especially because Prof. M. P. d'Oliveira has 

 just commenced in the " Eevista da Sociedade de Instruccao do Porto," 

 ii, No. 2 (February, 1882), a " Catalogue des Insectes du Portugal" 

 (printed in French), commencing with the Coleoptera. — Eds.]. 



GEODEPHAGA. 



Cicindela campestris, L. — One example, Cea, approaching in its 

 somewhat flattened and strongly granulated elytra the local form 

 maroccana ; in colour it is conformable to the typical campestris. 



Carabus galicianus, Gory. — One example, near Villa Real. 



C. melanchoHcuSy Fab. — Cea. 



C. Steuarti, Deyrolle (Ann. Soc. Ent. Fr., 1852, p. 240, t. 5, f. 3). 

 — One ? example, near Villa Eeal, beside a streamlet at an altitude of 

 2700 feet. This species has been long considered a variety of the 

 C. guadarramus of Central Spain, but its specific rank has lately been 

 pointed out by Dr. L. von Heyden (Deutsch. entom. Zeits., 1880, p.
