176 Mr. G. C Champion on 



Ccrocoma schreho-i, F., locally common, on flowers, Bej., 

 Piedr., Av. Lytta vcsieatoria, L., in plenty in various 

 places, numerous males often seen near a single female, 

 on Cytisus inirgans and G. scoparius, Bej., Piedr., most of 

 the specimens with a space down the middle of the disc of 

 each elytron coppery or golden. Zonahris, various species, 

 some in great abundance on the Cytisus purgans and 

 Genista florida: Z. qtmdripundata, L., Bej., Piedr., Av. ;

 Z. geminata, F., Piedr., and others. Coryna hiltbcrgi, Gyll., 

 Bej, Zonitis pneusta, F., El Barco, QMcmcra sim'plcx, L., 

 Bej,, Piedr. 



Otiorrhyncli'us dcntipcs, Graells, in plenty, running about 

 in the sunshine, summits of the Sierras of Bejar and 

 Piedrahita. Pliyllolius sp. (near P. tuherculifcr, Chevr.), 

 not rare by beating herbage, Bej. Folydomsus seti/rons, 

 Duv., F. conjiucns, Steph. (?), on the Genista, and others 

 of the genus, Bej., Piedr. ; P. {Homapterus) affinis, Chevr., 

 very rarel}^ by sweeping long grass, S. Bej, SciaiJhihis

 florida, Bej. Bary^nthes sulei/rons, Boh., commonly, by 

 sweeping long grass, in a damp place on the mountain

 S. regcntstci?iensis, Herbst, >S'. crinitus, Herbs t, S. flavcscens, 

 Marsh., and its var. cinnamoriieus, AH., and others of the 

 genus, chiefly on Genista florida, Bej, Gncorrlmms: various

 Piedrahita, and although these were the most character-

 scattered about on the elytra or legs. [A very similar
