still more remarkable that the same identity should exist in several other curious cha- 
racters of the two insects as above detailed. 
In the former species (A. Dioscorides) we find a striking approximation to the form 
of the Pachysome (Scarab. Aisculapius and Hippocrates); but the second species 
(A. Sterquilinus) recedes from every known species of long-legged Scarabeide in having 
the head cornuted and the surface of the thorax irregularly channelled. In Hyboma 
carinata (Westw. in Mag. Zool. & Bot., October and December 1836), we indeed find 
the latter character, and this genus is also assimilated to Anomiopsis in the structure of 
the antenne ; but in comparing the figures which I have here given of Anomiopsis with 
those of Hyboma carinata, above referred to, and Hyboma Guildingii (Westw. in Brit. 
Cyclop., Pl. Beetles), it will be evident that the habit of Anomiopsis is decidedly 
towards Scarabeus. 
I much regret that I cannot state with precision the real locality of these two per- 
plexing insects, the late lamented Sir Patrick Walker, in whose collection they were 
contained, (and who kindly permitted me to describe and figure as well as to dissect 
the specimens, although uniques,) having purchased them from a dealer, with various 
miscellaneous exotic species, but including many Javanese insects.
