P. S. Latreille, in the new Edition of the Rfegne Animal, t. v, p. 73, 

 has removed the genera Rhaebus and Xylophilus from the J\/'otoxid(JE, 

 and has placed them immediately after Bruchus, with the observations, 

 " Les Rhebes (Rhaebus) de Fischer se distinguent des Bruches par leurs 

 " elytres flexibles, et les crochets bifides de leurs tarses. 



" Les Xylophiles (Xylophilus) de Bonelli s'en eloignent par leurs 

 " palpes termines en massue." 



The Anthici populneus, oculatus and pygmcBus of Gyllenhal are all 

 stated (but incorrectly, vide supra) to be the types of the latter genus, 

 which I cannot but think has much more affinity with Anthicus than with 

 Bruchus.
