 Staphylinus, but they are incorporated with the Fauna. 



" Monograpia Histeroideum," with plates of all the species, 1 vol. Svo, Up- 

 sal, 1811. This Monograph is superior to the preceding ones, and is indispea- 

 sably requisite for the study of these Insects. 



He has published certain Memoirs on Birds.
