Macrolister, gen. nov. 



The type of the genus /lister is um'cohr, Linn^, and I pro- 

 pose the name of Macrolister for a new genus to include 

 species which are obviously different in having a large 

 transverse head, a labrum transverse and emarginate, thorax 

 without any antennal fosseltes, and t!ie anterior tibiae 3-dentate. 

 The type of this new genus will be //. gigns, Pciyk., and the 

 species associated with it are//, vatidas, Er., latipes, Beauv., 

 fortisj Sell., robiisticepoy Mars., tardigradus, saginatus, robusti- 

 collisj intrepidus, Col'insoi, Lew., mnjor, L., pilicoUis, Sell., 

 latobitts, igiidvus, and niauruSy Mars. 



Pachylister, gen. nov. 

 I propose also to found this genus to include /lister 

 rnffrKj Er. (as the type), //. inaqualis, 01., nigrita, Er., rocca^
