Tribe VI. CRYPTINI. 

 Genus AGROTHEREUTES Forster. 



To this genus 1 should relegate Ci'ijj)tHS ctrtlcalis Bingham, which is 

 not a true OryptiDi. Cryj>tus praepen Bingham is unknown to me and 

 very ditiicult to place generically from the description; it is certainly 

 no Cryptus and belongs evidently in the tribe Phygadeiioninl. It 

 may be placed temporarily, or until I can secure a specimen for exam- 

 ination, in 31(cr<)ci'y2>tas Thomson, where 1 think it belongs.
