 considerably in size. 



Sp. 28. Maderce. — This insect decidedly belongs

 Calosoma have fallen under my inspection ; they 

 may be divided into two sections, like the Necro- 

 phori, those with straight, and those with crooked 

 tibiee. 



Sp. 31. Splendens. — The locality mentioned by

Sp. 33. Suturalis. — This elegant insect, as it 

 is apparently unknown to Continental writers, is
