should be referred to the same category ; they are wood-feeders, both confined to 
Oahu, one of them found only once near Honolulu. 
The Cucujidz are a more varied assemblage, consisting of eight genera and 
twelve species Two of the genera are peculiar—Brontolaemus with one, Monanus 
with two species; six of the twelve species are known to occur elsewhere, and the 
only species that can have any claim at all to be considered autochthonous are the 
Brontoleemus, which is found running like a longicorn on partially decayed trees, 
and no doubt lives under the bark, and the Monani which are connected with 
Pandanus ; but I have little doubt that these, like the other Cucujide, will prove 
to be of foreign origin. 
The family Cryptophagidz has two species of minute beetles, each representing 
a genus; one is certainly, the other probably, foreign. The Lathridiidze have a 
single foreign species, Latridius nodifer, Westd., whose distribution over the world 
is apparently going on under the observatioa of our generation. 
The Mycetophagidz have four genera and four species. All the genera and 
two of the species are known outside the islands; the two peculiar species both live 
in bark or wood, and will probably prove to be foreign insects introduced naturally. 
The Corylophidz have three genera and five species. Though all the species 
are peculiar at present, none of the genera are so; and as they are excessively 
minute and nothing is known of the exotic forms, it is probable all may prove to 
be foreign. 
The Erotylide are represented by two of the smallest and most obscure of the 
known members of the family. One of them forms at present a peculiar genus, 
but both may well prove to be introduced. 
The Coccinellidze have five species, two of them introduced, while the other 
three belong to Seymnus, an uninteresting genus, consisting of a large number of 
very small insects, very little collected or known. There is no direct evidence as 
to whether they may ultimately prove peculiar or not. 
The Dermestidz have eight species in four genera, one genus being doubtfully 
peculiar; the Attagenus and two Cryptorhopala may be looked on as certainly 
introduced, but the three species of Labrocerus are more probably immigrant by 
natural means. They are found by beating dead branches of trees. 
The Lucanide are represented by a single species, only once found; it is a 
peculiar genus, said to be allied to Chilian forms, and is probably an immigrant 
with natural driftwood. 
The great family Scarabeide has only three genera and five species, none of 
them peculiar. 
The Eucnemidz are represented by five species of the genus Fornax. This 
genus has a large number of obscure exotic species, all of them very little known, 
and this latter point also applies to the Hawaiian species. They are exclusively 
xylophagous, and will probably be found elsewhere.
