Remarks on the genus (rs. 
Mr. Waterhouse’s paper (Trans. Ent. Soc. Lond. V. 1859. p. 200) 
seems to have been overlooked by the authors of the Catalogus Syn. 
et Syst. By the aid of this the Marshamian species can be success- 
fully unravelled. Marsham deseribes 10 species as follows: 
13. boletorum, 14. villosulus, 15. pyrrhocephalus, 16. pygmaeus, 
17. bidentatus, 18. inermis, 19. coneinnus, 20. rufiwornis, 21. nigri- 
cornis, 22. rhododactylus. 
Of these eoneinnus and nigricornis are from Kirby’s collection, 
hence the specimens in the Stephensian cabinet afford no information, 
probably however concinnus — (. festivus Panz. and migricornis — 
hispidus Payk. var. Of the others boletorum and bidentatus are the 
well known species and inermis — bidentatus 2. €. villosulus (type 
and description) = setiger Mellie; (. pyrrhocephalus (type and 
deser.) — setiger var. (. pygmaeus (type) — oblongus Mellie, but 
some transposition has taken place, as the description is quite at 
varlance and more nearly accords with C. alni. C. ruficorns has no 
typical specimen, the description obviously applies to (. oblongus 
Mellie and very likely the real types have been placed under €. 
pygmaeus. OÖ. rhododactylus (type) = (. oblongus M ellie, the description 
belongs rather to (. Juspidus. Thus two names may be retained, pyrr- 
hocephalus and ruficornes, the others sink. €. Aavus Steph. (Cat. 
Monach. p. 1797) is founded on immature specimens of €. villosulus 
Marsh. €. dbetulae Zett. is a synonym of (. alni Gyll. according 
to Thomson (Skand. Col. V.). €. villosus Marsh. p. 86 (Cat. p. 1798) 
is a mistake for C. völlosulus (setiger Mellie.)
