The following are distinguished from the above species of 

 Euj)ines (though Archdeacon King did not consider the distinc- 

 tion more than sectional) by having antennae of only 10 joints : — 

 Elizabetha3, King 

 laticlava, Schauf. 

 I am doubtful whether the following are Eupines : — 

 atra, King 

 Iteviceps, Schauf. 

 talpa, Schauf. 

 plecta, Shp. 

 The species of Eupines have much resemblance inter se as re- 

 gards their superficial characters, but, so far as I can judge, are 

 very well characterised by the sexual peculiarities of the meta- 

 sternum and ventral segments. Unfortunately these are re- 

 corded in the description of the following only : — 

 concolor, Shp. 

 sulcata, Shp. 

 spreta, Shp, 

 There are sexual characters also in the antennae and tibic^e of 

 at least some species, which are more or less exactly recorded in 

 the descriptions of many of the above-named. 



The following species in my collection seem to be clearly dis- 

 tinct from any previously described, althougli it is possible (as 

 noted below) that the first may be an Alpine form of one of Herr 

 Schaufuss' species.
