On the genus Broteas of Loven. — Broteas falcifer. 5 



account of the species originally described by Loven, but 

 also to point out with greater exactness both the general 

 characters of the genus, as compared with its nearest allies, 

 and the specific characters by which the 2 species are 

 distinguished from each other. I first propose to give a 

 detained description of the type species, and thereon shall 

 endeavour to give short diagnoses of the genus and of the 

 2 species included in it, accompanied by critical remarks 

 and information as to occurrence, etc. The accompanying 

 plate refers only to the type species.
