16 MANDIBULATA. — COLEOPTERA. 



This insect is synonymous with the Cu. acephalus of Marshara, which I had 

 placed in the preceding genus in my Catalogue — an error, like many others, as- 

 well orthographical as typographical, ignorantly copied in the piracy thereof. 



Inhabits flowers, especially those of the Campanula rotundifolia, 

 but not very frequently taken : it has been found in the flowers 

 of the whitethorn, in May, in Norfolk. " Among herbage (near 

 Swansea), not common.'"' — L. W. Dillwi/n, Esq.
