 64 COLEOPTERA. 



44. Thichopteryx rivularis, Allibert, Guer. Rev. Zool., 



1844, vii, 133; Rev. A. Matthews, I.e. 



Mr. Matthews has decided upon separating this from T. 

 3Iontandonii, Allib., from which it differs in its more elon- 

 gate form, and longer thorax, its elytra being more con- 

 tracted at their apex, and the disposition of its sculpture ; 

 and states that it is not uncommon in this country. 



45. Trichopteryx Edithia, Matthews, I. c. (described). 



Elongate, convex, griseous-browm, covered with long silky 

 pale hairs; antennas and legs long, slender, bright yellow; 

 thorax covered with small tubercles irregularly arranged, 

 with shining and deeply reticulate interstices ; elytra deeply 

 asperate in close wavy rows. 



Taken by Mrs. Woliaston near Tonbridge. 



46. Trichopteryx cantiana, Matthews, I. c, 153 (diag- 



nosis). 



Differs from T. lata in its thorax being much less dilated 

 at the sides, its shorter, more robust, and entirely black 

 antennas, its deep black colour, and very short pubescence. 



Several specimens taken by Mr. and Mrs. Woliaston at 

 Tonbridge. 



47. Orthoperus atomarius, Heer, Faun. Col. Helv. 433 



{Pitojjhilus) ; Duval, Gen. Col., 236 ; D, Sharp, 

 Cat. Brit. Col. ; Ent. Mo. Mag., viii, 83. 



Found abundantly by Mr. Crotch at Devizes. 



The exceedingly small size (^line) of this pallid testaceous, 

 very delicately punctulated species, readily distinguishes it 

 from our other OrthoiJeri.
