  A 
  further 
  study 
  of 
  this 
  genus 
  with 
  the 
  help 
  of 
  Mr. 
  Carter's 
  

   paper 
  leads 
  nie 
  to 
  the 
  opinion 
  that 
  setosus, 
  Blackbn., 
  = 
  

   cupreus, 
  F. 
  I 
  have 
  only 
  the 
  single 
  type-specimen 
  of 
  each, 
  

   but 
  there 
  can, 
  I 
  think, 
  be 
  little 
  doubt 
  of 
  their 
  specific 
  identit}'.

  Again, 
  a 
  further 
  study 
  of 
  this 
  type 
  leads 
  me 
  to 
  modify 
  the 
  

   O[)inion 
  originally 
  communicated 
  to 
  Mr. 
  (Jarter. 
  I 
  am 
  

   ui:able 
  to 
  match 
  the 
  specimen 
  with 
  any 
  other 
  in 
  the 
  British 
  

   Museum 
  Collection. 
  It 
  most 
  closely 
  resembles 
  G. 
  pxdcher, 
  

   Blackbn. 
  (though 
  not 
  identical 
  with 
  it), 
  and 
  is, 
  in 
  my 
  opinion, 
  

   not 
  the 
  amethystinus 
  of 
  Blackburn 
  and 
  Carter; 
  nor 
  is 
  it 
  

   cyanipennis, 
  Hope. 
  

  

  Probably 
  Fabricius 
  was 
  consideiing 
  a 
  series 
  without 
  

   detecting 
  more 
  than 
  one 
  species, 
  for, 
  though 
  there 
  is 
  only 
  

   one 
  specimen 
  in 
  the 
  Banks 
  Collection, 
  he 
  says, 
  "
