and Jurine, who was at most only a fair classical scholar, 

 may have failed to recognise them. 



Rohwer in 1911 cited signata F. as the Type of Cephaleia 

 Pzr., and since Panzer attributes this genus to Jurine, 

 we may take the citation as applying also to Cephaleia 

 {\ Cephaleia) Jrn.

This genus was proposed by Fabricius, in 1798, for two 

 supposed species coronatus F. and vespertilio F., but as 

 these are both identical with abietina Sep. the genus was 

 monotypical in its inception. Latreille had previously 

 published Orussus, in 1786, but without exponents — on the 

 Plates of the Nouvelle Methode the name also appears as 

 Orussus, but this was corrected to Oryssus in the text, as 

 also in the Erlangen List — this suggests that Jurine's plates 

 were engraved before the pubhcation of Fabricius' Ent. 

 Syst. (1798) in which the name first appeared as Oryssus.
