 In the O the fore-tarsi are rather strongly dilated. The sixth ventral 

 abdominal joint is said to have at middle posteriorly a rather long, ro- 

 bust spine (Janglb.). Sometimes however the spine is not developed and 

 only a little fold indicates its place. 



Especially distributed in "'est Europe; very rare in this country. 

 I have found a single specimen at excrements on the strand at Jilleleje

 (9. 1903), a second ,6', in fungus in Hillerjard (9. 1903); one specimen 

 is found at ,Grholm (Rosenberg). 



118. ienus Pycno^lypta Thorns. 



(Thorns. Skand. Col. Ill, 198; Rey Bre'vip. 1880, 269; Janglb. Kaf. M. 

 II, 744). 



The body is rather short, flatly convex, posteriorly feebly broadened; 

 the head narrower than pronotum, with transversally constricted or trans- 

 versally grooved vertex behind the protruding eyes, and inside these with 

 a longitudinal groove, forehead otherwise slightly convex, without impres- 

 sions, and without noticeable ocelli on the vertex, antennae as long as 

 lead and pronotum together, their last three joints robust, the next-last 

 two rather strongly transverse, distinctly broader than the two preceding 

 (7-8), which are only a little more robust than the middle ones (4-6) which 

 are rather fine joints. Pronotum is narrower than elytra, narrowing poste- 

 riorly, without distinct impressions; elytra proportionately short, poste- 

 riorly broadened, abdomen convex, roundly tapering, its side-margins rather 

 narrowly upturned set off; legs short, tibiae not spiniferous, twice as 

 Long as the short tarsi, of which the claw-joint is as long as the first 

 four joints together.
