48 COLEOPTERA. 



refer to species purporting to be new to science, and de- 

 scribed from British specimens ; 56 to species recorded as 

 British for the first time, and of which 38 are unquestionably 

 entitled to rank as distinct and indigenous, whilst 18 are 

 either of dubious specific value, or scarcely entitled to be 

 considered truly natives of this country ; and the remaining 

 consist of changes in nomenclature, corroborations of former 

 additions or suspicions, &:c. Two genera new to us, Bor- 

 horopora and Anlsoxya, and additional species of Crypto- 

 cephalus, 3Iyrmedunia^ Leptura, Bemhidlum, and Apion, 

 are perhaps most note-woi'thy ; the Apion especially so, as 

 it is some time since hope of a fresh one for England has 

 been abandoned, owing to the exhaustive work of Messrs. 

 Walton and Stevens in that genus.
