1807.] MR. G. R. CROTCH ON AZOREAN COLEOrXERA. 3/3 



G7. Epistomus gyrinoidks. Marsh. 



With the preceding, also under refuse in S. Miguel. 



08. Latridius minutus, L. 



One specimen only, at Santa Cruz, Flores. This insect positively 

 swarms in Madeira and the Canaries. 



69. L. NODiFER, Westw. 



In decaving oranges at Ponte Delgada, San Miguel — and also at 

 Ilorla, Fayal, but rarely. This insect has been hitherto confined to 

 England, where it was some years ago of the utmost rarity ; now, 

 however, it is universally spread over the country, and in the greatest 

 abundance. It is probably a mere importation into the Azores, but 

 is not without significance. 



70. CORTICARIA MACULOSA, Woll. 



At Ponte Delgada, S. Miguel, three specimens only. 



71. C. FULVA, Com. 



Two specimens only, in S. Miguel and Fayal respectively, and 

 both probably introduced. 



72. C. SERRATA, Gryll. 



One specimen, in the fowl-shed at Ilorta, Fayal. 



73. C. CURTA, Woll. 



S. Miguel and Fayal, under refuse. This species occurs in many 

 parts of Europe, and is scattered in collections as C. truncatella, 

 Mannh. 



74. Typh.ea fumata, L. 



Abundant in S. Miguel and Fayal, under refuse. 



75. MvcETiEA HiRTA, ]\Iarsh. 



Also not rare in S. Miguel and Fayal, in out-houses &c, 



7Q. Dermestes frischii, Kug. 



S. Miguel, Terceira, and Fayal, in dead fish &c. All the speci- 

 mens I have examined are referable to this species ; but its congener, 

 7). vulpimis, must also occur. 



77. Anthrenus varius, Fabr. 



Very common in flowers in Fayal and Flores, and very variable in 

 size and markings. 



78. ACRITUS MINUTUS, Hb. 



In garden-refuse at Ponte Delgada, S. Miguel, rarely. 



79. Carcinops pumimo, Er. (14-striatus, Steph.). 



One specimen, at Horta, Fayal. IMr. Wollaston has employed the
