I. On the Heteronierous Coleeptera of St. Vincent, 

 Grenada, and the Grenadines. By George Charles 

 Champion, F.Z.S. 



[Read Dec. 4th, 1895.] 



Plate T. 



The present paper contaius an account of the Hetero- 

 nierous Coleoptera collected by Mr. H. H. Smith in St. 

 Vincent, Grenada, and the Grenadines, under the 

 auspices of the West India Exploration Committee of 

 the Royal Society and British Association. Mr. Gahan 

 (Trans. Ent. Soc. Lond. 1895, pp. 79-140) has already 

 dealt with the Longicornia collected by Mr. H. 11. Smith, 

 he at the same time giving a complete list of the whole 

 of the species of that family known to inhabit the West 

 India Islands. It is not pi'oposed to deal with the 

 Heteromerous Coleoptera in the same complete manner, 

 but merely to give an analysis of Mr. Smith's captures. 

 The collections submitted to me for examination contain 

 representatives of seventy-five species — Tenebrionidae 

 (42), Cistelidfe (4), Lagriidee (2), Pythid® (1), (Ede- 

 meridte (8), XylophiHdfe (4), Anthicidae (5), MordeUidas 

 (4), Rhipidophoridas (2), and Cantharidae (3). Of this
