DESCRIPTIONS 



NEW GENERA AND SPECIES OF COLEOPTERA. 



By Major T. Broun, F.E.S. 



The following descriptions of three new genera and 115 species of New 

 Zealand beetles were prepared during the year 1909. With these are 

 incorporated nineteen species that were published in Germany by Herr 

 Reitter, and one by Dr. Sharp, which, unfortunately, had been inad- 

 vertently omitted in previous hsts. 



The new species recorded in my " Revision of the New Zealand 

 Byrrhidae "* are not included in this paper. 



During the previous year twenty new genera and 157 species were 

 described by me. These were published in the " Annals and Magazine of 

 Natural History," at London. Copies of these have been deposited in the 

 library of the Auckland Muse vim. 



The numbers from 2593 to 3021 were affixed to species described by me 

 and pubhshed in the " Annals and Magazine of Natural History " between 

 the years 1893 and 1909.
