Type in the Berlin Entomological Museum. 



I have found by an examination of the type in the Paris 

 Museum that Popillia dichroa, Blanch., attributed to the "Indes 

 Orientales," is the Chinese P. castanoptera, Hope. It is thex'efore 

 omitted here. Burmeister recorded it from Assam, but he seems 

 to have associated specimens of several species under the name. 



P. sandy X of the Munich Catalogue seems to have no real 

 existence.
