  I 
  do 
  not 
  know 
  of 
  any 
  other 
  species 
  with 
  which 
  I 
  can 
  

   usefully 
  compare 
  this, 
  the 
  swollen 
  head, 
  small 
  but 
  very 
  

   prominent 
  eyes, 
  and 
  Nebria-hke 
  thorax 
  giving 
  it 
  an 
  appear- 
  

   ance 
  unhke

  of 
  the 
  other

   to

  14. 
  Lesticus 
  (Omaseus) 
  viridicollis. 
  A 
  great 
  stumbling- 
  

   block 
  to 
  the 
  entomologists 
  of 
  the 
  early 
  part 
  of 
  last 
  century. 
  

   Dejean 
  (Spec. 
  Gen. 
  iii, 
  1828, 
  183) 
  described 
  a 
  specimen 
  

   which 
  he 
  supposed 
  to 
  belong 
  to 
  Macleay's 
  species 
  as 
  Trigo- 
  

   notoma 
  viridicollis 
  : 
  this, 
  however, 
  teste 
  Chaudoir 
  (Ann. 
  

   Soc. 
  Ent. 
  Belg. 
  xi, 
  1868, 
  151), 
  belongs 
  to 
  a 
  different 
  genus 
  

   and 
  is 
  identical 
  with 
  Brulle's 
  Trigonotoma 
  indica 
  (Audouin 
  

   and 
  Brulle's 
  Hist. 
  Nat. 
  Ins. 
  iv, 
  1834, 
  333). 
  Brulle 
  also 
  

   described 
  a 
  Trigonotoma 
  viridicollis 
  (I.e. 
  333, 
  t. 
  12, 
  f. 
  5), 
  

   which 
  he 
  took 
  for 
  Macleay's 
  species 
  : 
  this 
  is 
  identical 
  with 
  

   Lesticus 
  buqiieti 
  Cast. 
  (Et. 
  Ent. 
  1834, 
  77). 
  Some 
  descrip- 
  

   tive 
  notes 
  on 
  the 
  species 
  have 
  been 
  made 
  by 
  Tchitcherin 
  

   (Hor. 
  Soc. 
  Ent. 
  Ross, 
  xxxiv, 
  1900, 
  176). 
  It 
  is 
  now 
  fairly 
  

   well 
  known 
  and 
  seems 
  to 
  be 
  confined 
  to 
  Java.

  Catadromus 
  tenebrioides 
  Ohv. 
  Described 
  by 
  Olivier 
  

   (Enc. 
  Meth. 
  v, 
  1790, 
  324) 
  and 
  subsequently 
  figured 
  (Ent. 
  

   iii, 
  1795, 
  35, 
  17, 
  t. 
  6, 
  f 
  . 
  67), 
  this 
  species 
  does 
  not 
  need 
  further 
  

   comment 
  from 
  me. 
  I 
  beheve 
  it 
  to 
  be 
  confbied 
  to 
  Java. 
  

  

  Macleay, 
  in 
  an 
  " 
  Observation," 
  differentiates 
  his 
  genus 
  

   from 
  Omaseus, 
  but 
  thinks 
  it 
  alhed 
  to 
  Platysma 
  and 
  Brosctis. 
  

   Without 
  any 
  near 
  Eastern 
  congeners, 
  Catadromus 
  is 
  related 
  

   to 
  the 
  two 
  first-named 
  genera, 
  but 
  far 
  removed 
  from 
  

   Broscus. 
  

  

  16. 
  Dicoelindus 
  felspaticus. 
  The 
  species 
  is 
  figured 
  in 
  

   the 
  plate 
  (t. 
  1, 
  f. 
  6), 
  but 
  has 
  not 
  hitherto 
  attracted 
  atten- 
  

   tion. 
  Schaum 
  (see 
  Berl. 
  Ent. 
  Zeit. 
  1863, 
  86) 
  examined 
  

   this 
  insect 
  at 
  the 
  British 
  Museum, 
  and 
  expressed 
  the 
  view 
  

   that 
  it 
  belonged 
  to 
  the 
  genus 
  Abacetus. 
  Chaudoir 
  (Bull. 
  

   Mosc. 
  1869, 
  ii, 
  356) 
  was 
  sceptical 
  about 
  this, 
  and 
  quite 
  

   rightly 
  so.

  by

  as 
  

   ? 
  Lagarus

  six 
  years 
  later 
  (Ann.

   Civ. 
  Gen.

  365) 
  he 
  formed 
  the 
  genus 
  Arsenoxenus 
  for 
  

   a 
  species 
  taken 
  by 
  Mr. 
  Fea 
  in 
  Burma, 
  to 
  which 
  he 
  gave 
  the 
  

   name 
  of 
  A. 
  harpaloides.
