XV. — Notes on Platypodidce and Scolytidce collected by 

 Mr. G. E. Bryant and others. By Lt.-Col. Winn 

 Sampson, F.E.S. 



The following pages do not complete the descriptions of the 

 very varied examples placed in the writer's hands for exami- 

 nation, but it is hoped that the rest of the specimens may 

 be dealt with at an early date. At present, Mr. Bryant's 

 collection has been found to contain 



Family Platypodidae. 



Genus Crossotarsus, Chap. 

 Crossotarsus wallacei, Thorns. Malacca, Borneo, Sumatra. 



A' good series of both sexes from Sarawak (Mt. Matang 

 and Quop). 



Crossotarsus penicillatus, Chap., ? (lege S). Borneo. 



A number of specimens were taken on Mt. Matang, and 

 several females taken at the same time coincide so exactly 

 with the description of C. cincinnatus, Chap., that there is 

 little doubt the two species are merely the sexes of C. peni- 

 cillatus, Chap. 



Crossotarsus penicillatus, Chap., ? (lege <^), $ (lege ? ), 

 nov.
