 conicis successive brevioribus, ultimis rotundatis ; tborace subovato, 

 modice ampliato ; elytris ovatis medio latioribus ; segmentis 2-4° abdo- 

 minis uormalibus. Corpus oblongo-ovatum aut oblongum, squamia 

 elongatis setiformibus inclinatis, in elytris seriatis, adspersum. — Styphll-

 { = asperattis, Dej. Catal.). 



Obs. I. — The characters given by Mr. Thomson to each of his three 

 genera of Tychima apply only to a limited number of European 

 species. 



Ohs. II. — According to the artificial system of Schonherr, Tycliius 

 carinicolUs, Lucas {^=^Auheonymus pidclieUus, Jacq. Duv.), from 

 Algeria, South Spain (Cadiz), and Sicily, by the longitudinal channel 

 of its prothorax beneath not extending further than the somewhat 

 distant anterior coxte, strictly belongs to the second subdivision of 

 the Cri/ptorhynchides, where it might be placed near Ocladius ; but 

 I cannot see that it has anything to do with Rypsomus, as M. Jacq. 

 Duval states ; it rather resembles PachytycMus, with a tendency 

 towards some species of Acalles, 



Pachytychius, Jekel.
