visionally) suhquadrifoveolata, by Mr. Wateihouse, must be 

 referred to this species. 



Oddly enough, Herr W. Redtenbacher also appears 

 (Dissert, quaed. Gen. et Spec. Col. Austr. p. 23) to have 

 described this insect under the n^me quadiifoveolatum.

 Mr. Crotch records the capture of this species by Mr. E. 

 W. Janson at Hainault Forest; and has exhibited specimens 

 at the Entomological Society. 



It bears considerable resemblance to the foregoing species, 

 but has the four foveae on the thorax much more distinct, the 

 thorax nearly quadrate instead of elongate, and with the 

 margins very plainly thickened. The elytra also are less 

 pubescent than in 31. rufa.

Monthly Mag. vol. i. p. 245 {note). 



In examining the exponents of Cerylon ohsoletitm in the 

 Stephensian Cabinet with a view of determining their identity 

 with Anommatus \2-siriatus (to which Stephens' descrip- 

 tion of his species appears to refer), I found that the first 

 insect, with ticket attached, was identical with the specimens 

 representing C. oryzce, the species next following it (the 

 remainder consisting of one true Cerylon, and two of the 

 Anommatu.'^). 



This species has somewhat the facies of Afjlenus hrun- 

 neus ; but its legs are much stouter, and its antennae more 

 strongly and abruptly clavate. There can be no doubt that
