TMs work is indispensable to the student of the family, as it 

 contains most minute details of the structure and habits of the 

 species. The synonymy of the European species is also given at 

 very great length. New genera are proposed in some numbers, 

 and are somewhat slightly characterized. The new species de- 

 scribed are : 



Idalia inquinata 



Coccinella labilis ... C. magnifica {Redt).
