75. Ceuthorhynchus nigroterminatus, Wollaston, 



Cat. Col. Mad. (1854), 327, 250. 

 mixtus, Mulsarit, Op. 1859, 37. 



Mr. Crotch (^loc. cit.) states that he has one specimen from 

 Gainsborough, and that Dr. Power has another, which ap- 

 pear to belong to this species; a determination in which 

 Mr. Wollaston himself agrees, remarking only that these 

 insects are a little less tessellated than the Madeiran ex- 

 amples. 



From the Ins. Mad., this species appears to be known by its 

 somewhat shortened outline, sub-rugiilose surface, consider- 

 ably abbreviated elytra (which have not only an obscure 

 patch about the scutellum, but likewise their hinder margin 

 more or less densely clothed with white scales), and com- 

 paratively dark antennae ; also by the apical joint of all its 

 tarsi being tipped with black. 



It has dentate femora, and should be placed near pollina- 

 rius. 



76. Ceuthorhynchus verrucatus, (Steven) Gyll. in 



Schon. Syn. Ins. iv. part i. 541, 97. 



Mr. Crotch remarks that C. bigutfatuSf (Waterh.) Boh., 

 is identical with this species ; and I see that De Marseul in 

 his last Catalogue (1863) has placed the two together; giving 

 the priority to verrucatusj as higuttatus was published in 

 the Supplement to Schonherr, some years after the body of 

 that work. 



Mr. Brewer has recently taken a large number of this 

 hitherto excessively rare species on the horn-poppy at Wor- 

 thing. 



77. Ceuthorhynchus angulosus (Germar) Bohem. in 



Schon. Syn. Ins. viii. part ii. 161, 117. 

 Mr. Crotch states that C, impressicollisj Little, MS.,
