Family EROTYEIDHJ. 
As the family stands in our lists at present, it comprises species of 
two quite different types. The “Languriinae,” which are long, slender 
and somewhat cylindrical, and the “Erotylinae,” which are shorter, more 
robust, tapering to the end of the wing-covers. The former are feeders 
in the stems of living plants, the latter are found in fungus and under 
the bark of trees. These are sometimes regarded as representing dis¬ 
tinct families, while others include under the one heading also the 
“Cryptophaginae” and “Atomariinae.” It has not been deemed advisable 
to advocate either proposition here, and therefore the list has been left 
essentially as in the last edition.
