442 Mr. G. Lewis on 



In one description there is no mention of the antennae or the 

 legs, in the other nothing is said of the elytra. The words 

 " thorace nigro-asneo, antice subtestaceo," and " thorace medio 

 vitta testacea," apply to (E. montana, Mars., a species which 

 varies to this extent in the colour of the thorax. The colour 

 of the antennaj, " nigris, basi infuscatis," also applies to it. 

 Motschulsky's descriptions read as follow : — 



" (Edemera lucidicoUis, Motsch., statura (Ed. hiridm sed thorace 

 lucido. Elongata, parallela, subconvexa, viridi-cyanea ; thorace 

 subcordato, nitido, glabro, nigro-seueo, antice subtestaceo ; elytris 

 puuctidatis, opacis utrinque binervis, uervo interior! abbreviato. 



" Long. 2| lin." 



" Oncomera vitticollis, Motsch., statura et color One. Jiavipedi sed 

 pedibus anticis obscuris. Elongata, postice attenuata, depressa, 

 vix nitida, viridi-cyanea ; thorace medio vitta testacea ; antennia 

 nigris, basi infuscatis. 



" Long. 3 lin." 



I consider Marseul's name is entitled to rank first, as his 

 description leaves no doubt as to the species he had before 

 him, and it is not quite clear whether Motschulsky had one 

 or more.
