Rev., by G: Dimmock. (Psyche, Dec. 
1880 [May 1881], v. 3, p. 150.) 
Introduction [16 p.] in which the writer seeks to give, 
as far as possible, from memory of conversations with 
Mocquerys, the ideas of the latter upon abnormal forms 
of coleoptera, revi-wing the causes and torms of gen- 
eral and special monstrosities. “The monstrosities, most 
of which arefrom Mocquerys’ collection, are each fig- 
ured and described, being classified as follows: 19° 
Monstrosities by excess; 23 in the antennae, 4 in the 
palpi and mandibles, 3 (one a hybrid) in the elytra, 15 in 
the femora or tibiae, 10 in the tarsi or feet, g with extra 
gibbosities: 22 Monstrosities by deficient number of 
parts (9 examples) : 3° Monstrosities without apparent 
causes (28 exampie-): 4° Incomplete development (11 
examples). G: D. (2037)
