Major F. J. Sidney Parry on 



Remarks will also be found on the following 



Chiasognathus Mniszechii, Thomson. 



Although this insect was recorded in my former Cata- 

 logue (but with some hesitation, see p. 6) as being 

 distinct, I have now little doubt as to the propriety of 

 uniting it with G. Jousselinii, Reiche (which name has 

 priority) . In this opinion I am confirmed both by Mens. 

 Reiche and Count Mniszech. C. Jousselinii must still bo 

 considered a very rare species in our collections ; the 

 female is, I believe, unique in the collection of Count 

 Mniszech, and, like the c? in its normal condition, 

 is densely covered with a silky pubescence.
