 StropJiosomus Coryli, Steph., 111., Brit. Ent. iv. 126 (1831). 

 Cneorkinus Coryli, Scliiin., Gen. et S])ec. Cure. i. 535 (1833). 



S. black, but densely clothed with brown, or brownish-cine- 

 reous, scales. Rostrum short and thick, but a little attenuated 

 anteriorly ; with the eyes somewhat conical, and very prominent. 

 Prothorax rugulose, and with a narrow and lightly-impressed 

 dorsal channel. Elytra convex and rounded, but with their sides 

 rather straightened, or parallel, about the middle, being some- 

 what suddenly rounded inwardly about the shoulders; distinctly 

 punctate-striate, and rather coarsely (though sparingly) pubes- 

 cent, or setose, especially behind ; and with the basal portion of 

 the suture black — being denuded of scales. Antenna rather 

 slender, and rufo-ferruginous. Legs robust, rufo-piceous, and 

 more or less clothed with scales. 



A single specimen of the common European S. Coryli has been 

 communicated to me by Mr.Bewicke,who received it from Senhor 

 Moniz, by whom it was captured near Funchal. It differs in no 

 respect, so far as I can perceive, from the ordinary examples of 

 more northern latitudes, — from whence, indeed, it is not impro- 

 bable that it may have been accidentally imported into the 

 island.

R. ovate, brassy-black, free from pile, coarsely alutaceous and 

 subrugulose all over, and slightly shining. Head and protliorax 

 very densely and deeply punctured : the former (as in the ordi- 

 nary Ramjihi) greatly inflexed, with the rostrum applied closely 

 to the breast, and with the eyes large and meeting on the fore- 

 head : the latter much narrowed anteriorly, and rather less
