ing the country : it has never fallen under my 

 notice. The reader is referred to Illiger's Magazine 

 for his remarks on this species. 



Sp. 104. Sulcator. — Schonherr in the Synonymia 

 Insectorum, gives the name of Sulcata instead of the 

 former. Is this Sulcata the other sex of Copris 

 Nisus Fab. ? if so, both the above names must be 

 abandoned. 



Sp. 106. Refiexus. — This Copris appears to be 

 originally from China, although some Entomolo- 

 gists believe it to be a Brazilian insect. It will 

 probably form the type of a sub-genus. There are 

 several species allied to it in the London cabinets, 

 from North as well as South America. It resem- 

 bles an Aphodius in form, but evidently belongs to 

 the Copridse. C. Nitidula Klug, and various other 

 South American species may be classed together. 



Sp. 110. Cristatus. — From the description of 

 Fabricius I am inclined to regard this insect as a 

 species of Scarabseus MacLeay ; it has never fallen 

 under my notice, and probably was unknown to the 

 author of the Hor» Entomologicse, as no mention 

 is made of it.
