76 Miscellaneous. 



In our European catalogues and in Gemminger's Catalogue of 

 Coleoptera Oniticellus pallipes, Eabr., is given as a European species, 

 with 0. pattens, Oliv., as a synonym. 



Fabricius gives Coromandel as the habitat of his 0. pallipes, and 

 I think this locality will prove to be correct. The type in the 

 Banksian collection measures 6.7 millim. in length. It much 

 resembles 0. concinnus, but the punctures on the thorax are not at 

 ;tll crowded ; the head has two ridges a little in front of the middle, 

 the posterior one shorter than the other and slightly angulated ; 

 the anterior margin is scarcely thickened. 



Oniticelhis pattens, Oliv.. is said to be from Senegal, and as there 

 are several species of the genus which occur in that locality, I see 

 no reason for assuming that Olivier's species is concinnus or any 

 other European species. 



Dates of Blainville's ' Osteoyraj>hie.' 



The dates of publication of the parts of this book do not present 

 any especial difficulty ; but as most copies of the work are bound up 

 without the wrapper-titles, and misquotation is common, I append 

 a list of dates taken from Wiegmann's ' Archiv fur Natur- 

 geschichte ' and other sources : —
