mandibles. A considerable difference is also to be 

 observed in the females of the two species; the punctua- 

 tion in E. Bucephalus, ? , is much stronger, and tlie elytra 

 are partially covered with a short sub-erect golden pubes- 

 cence, and are more strongly lineate. The following 

 three species, E. Titan, chiefly from the islands of the 

 Eastern Archipelago, E. Westcrinuni, from India, and 

 E . platyviehis from China and Formosa, appear to me to 

 be more closely allied, and might, perhaps, be considered 

 as geographical varieties. I may add, that on my at- 

 tention being called to the habitats of E. Bucephalus 

 given in my former Catalogue, viz., " India, Archip. 

 Ind.," I have examined numerous specimens, contained 

 in various collections, and find that the habitat is exclu- 

 sicely Java. I now give figures of E. Titijus, Hope 

 (Pl.III. figs. 3, 8). 



Eurytrachelus ceramensis, Thomson. 



In my former Catalogue I referred this insect to E. 

 concolor, Blanchard; Count Mniszech and M. H. DeyroUe 

 have, however, expressed to me their opinion that it is 

 distinct, and as I do not possess authentic specimens of 

 Mr. Thomson's insect, it is, perhaps, advisable to retain 

 it as such until further information is obtained. 



Eurytrachelus ternatensis, Thomson. 

 E. Thomson!, Parry. 



The insect described at page 47 of my previous Cata- 

 logue under the name of E. Thonisoni, has proved to be 

 identical with Mr. Thomson's species, " Catalogue des 

 Lucanides," p. 423; the name must, therefore, be sup- 

 pressed in favour oi E. ternatensis. 



Eurytrachelus Candezii, n. sp. (PI. I. fig. 2.)
