Sp. 21. Cyanocephalus. — Now of the genus 

 Lamprias of Bonelli, and of the family of Lebiadse.

 natural sub-genus, I retain it. If we reject the 

 generic characters given by such a writer as Bonelli, 

 and revert back to early authors, it would be wise 

 to retain the sectional characters those writers

 confusion by addition of new names. 



Sp. 23. Vaporariorum. — Now a Stenolophus of 

 Ziegler. The insect in the Linnean cabinet label- 

 led as Vaporariorum is now a Tarus, and not a 

 Stenolophus ; it appears to be the same as Tarus 

 basalis. 



Sp. 24. Latus. — According to M. M. Audouin 

 and Brulle, the above insect is a Calathus of 

 Bonelli, and is found in France under stones, ac-
