Inhabits Brazil. A single specimen is in the cabinet of Mr. Shuckard. 

 Genus. — Sphecomoepha, Neivtnan. 



Described in the ' Entomological Magazine,' v. 397. The only 

 species I have yet seen is Sphe. chahjhea, Newman, I. c. from Brazil ; 

 it is in the cabinet of the Entomological Club. 



Genus. — Odontocera, Serville. 



In the 'Ann. Ent. Soc. of France,' ii. 56, this genus is proposed; 

 the typical species, Odon. ritrea of Serville, from Brazil, is new. Odon. 

 gracilis, the Stenopterus gracilis of King's ' Entomology of Brazil,' 

 and Odon. cylindrica of Serville, both from Brazil, are congeneric. 



Genus. — Stenopterus, Illiger. 



This genus was established in Ilhger's Magazine, iv. 127, for Necy- 

 dalis rufus of Fabricius, a small Macrocerous insect which that author 

 had erroneously arranged with the Heteromerous division of Linneus' 

 genus. Sten. rufus is the type ; and in the ' Catalogue des Coleop- 

 teres' we find no less than five other species arranged below it: atz., 

 prcBustus, Fab., nigripes, Dalman, femoratuSy Steven, rtifipeSy La- 

 treille, and cyaneus, Fabricius. 



Genus. — Acyphoderes, Serville. 



Serville has rather indicated than instituted this genus, giving it 

 as a division of his genus Odontocera, from which however it decidedly 

 differs in many characters, particularly the structure of the prothorax. 

 The type of the genus is Acypli. aurulenta, the Stenoptenis aurulen- 

 tus of Dalman's ' Analecta Entomologica, ' p. 71. It inhabits Brazil 

 abundantly. Acypli. crinitus, the Stenopterus crinitus of Klug's 'En- 

 tomology of Brazil,' is a second species. 



Genus. — Callisphyris, 'Newman. 



The type of this genus. Call. Macropus, a native of the Island of 

 Chiloedy, is described and figured at p. 1 of ' The Entomologist. '
