new Species of the Coleopterous Faintly Paussidce. 85 
I only knew through the descriptions of preceding authors. Of 
these, as well as of the former, I have been induced to believe 
that descriptions and figures, in conjunction with those described 
by our colleague Mr. Saunders, might not be unacceptable to 
Entomologists by way of supplement to my former work. I have 
also added a notice of such other species as have been introduced 
into the family by authors subsequent to the publication of my 
Monograph, which, together with the present papers, will conse- 
quently comprise all that has been hitherto written upon the 
subject.
