 le Cotiite Dejean, et M. le Docteitr J. A. Boisduval. Tome 

 troisieme. 5""". Livraison. — The group Ferotiia is com- 

 pleted in this number ; it also contains figures of the genera 

 Camptoscelis, Myas, and Cephalotcs. 



S. Magasin de Zoologie ; par M, Guerin. — It would be 

 waste of time and space to enumerate all the Anmdosa lately 

 figured in this interesting work; we shall, therefore, only 

 point out some of the most remarkable. In plate 41 (part 

 Insecta) there is the figure of a larva, stated to be that of 

 Anthia sex-guttata ; it is so decidedly different from that of 

 any Adephagous insect we have hitherto seen, that we find 

 our credulity somewhat taxed in believing it. Our corre- 

 spondent, Mr. Newman, has given a very correct outline of 

 this remarkable larva, Plate III., Fig. 6, to which we invite 

 our readers' attention. Metopias curculionkles, a new genus 

 of PselapJndcs, found in Cayenne, remarkable for the anterior 

 part of the head being produced into a horn, at (he end of 

 which are placed the antennae. Calodromus Mellyi (PI. 34), 

 a new genus of Coleoplera, allied to the Brentidce, and 

 found on the coast of Cororaandel : this is a truly remarkable 

 insect; the basal joint of the metatarsi^ is three times the 

 length of the rest of the leg. Cephaleus infumatus, a new 

 Hemipterous genus. There is a clever monograph on the 

 Crustaceous genus, Mithrox, by Milne Edwards. De La- 

 porte's excellent Essay on the Hemiptera is concluded. 



4. Annales de la Sociele Ento?nologique de France: 

 Tome L, Trimesire^!, et Tome II. Trimestre 1 et 2. — These, 

 like the preceding number, contain many interesting and clever 

 essays ; the principal are, " Notice on the Entomology of 

 French Guiana, by M. Lacordaine;" " Observations on 

 Dahlborn's Monograph of the Scandinavian Bombi, by M. 

 Pelletier St. Fargeau;" " Memoir on fifty Species of Insects, 

 either new or little known, by M. de Laporte ;" " Continua- 



a Tarsi of the pns/crior legs ; we adopt the word from Mr. Newman. J'ide 

 ante, p. 415.
