SYNONYMICAL REMARKS 

 ABOUT MALLODON JEJUNUM, PASCOE. 



J, R. H. NEERVOORT van de POLL. 



Mallodon jejunum Pascoe (Journal of Entomology, II, 

 1864, p. 243) became some years afterwards the type of 

 the genus Brephili/dia Pascoe (Annals and Magazine of 

 Natural History. 4th ser., vol. IV, 1871, pi. 13, fig. 6 & 

 6a); in the Munich Catalogue the genus Brephilydia is 

 placed as a synonym of the genus Macrotoma , and the 

 Australian Brephilydia jejuna Pascoe as a synonym of 

 Macrotoma jejuna Klug from Madagascar! Finally Mr. 

 Thomson established in the Revue et Magasin de Zoölogie 

 1877, p. 277, upon Pascoe's A/allodon jejunum a new 

 genus Blephylidia (Pascoe Mss.). 



NB. In the ))Liste des Cérambycides" of Mr. Lameere, 

 mention is made of a second species of the genus Blephy- 

 lidia Thorns, viz. BL Raffrayi Thorns. 1. c. p. 278 , but 

 this species has nothing to do with that genus , being the 

 Phyllocnema Raffrayi Thoms. L c. ; at p. 35 of the»Liste" 

 this species occurs also in the genus Phyllocnema.
