Cu. Comari. Herbst.—Va.. ComBxl—Steph. Catal. 159. No. 1611. 



Black, variegafed above with cinereous, and beneath clothed with whitish scales ; 

 head finely punctured, a little sprinkled with cinereous behind: eyes brown, 

 prominent: thorax finely punctured, with a slight dorsal channel, clothed 

 with whitish scales, and an obsolete tubercle on each lateral margin, which 

 latter are irregularly bordered with whitish scales : elytra as broad again as 

 the thorax at the base, convex, striate, the strise obsoletely punctate, the 

 interstices convex, variegated with ashy-white scales, especially on the sides 

 and at the apex : femora black ; tibiae and tarsi testaceous : antennoe dull pale 

 ferruginous, with the second Joint dusky. 



Found on the Comarum palustre in damp meadows: rare near 

 London : it is found near Bristol, and I believe it has been found 

 in the New Forest by Mr. Kirby. 



B. With the thorax quadrituberculate. 



Sp. 4. quadridentatus. Niger, supra cinereo, subtus albido squamosus, thorace 

 obsolete canaliculato, acute quadrituberculato, tibiis rufis. (Long. corp. 1^ lin.) 



Pa. 4-dentatus. Steph. Catal. 159. No. 1612. 



Black, with ashy scales above and whitish beneath: head slightly convex, 

 punctate: thorax with an obsolete dorsal groove, its anterior margin with 

 two rather acute tubercles, and each lateral one with a single one, the margins 

 themselves slightly cinerascent: e/^fra striated, the interstices a little elevated, 

 immaculate : femora black: tibiae dull rufous: tarsi dusky. 



Apparently scarce : I have only seen my own examples, one of 

 which was captured near London, the other in the New Forest: 

 it has, I believe, been found elsewhere.

 rufis, thorace profundi punctato, elytrisque tuberculatis. (Long. corp. 1^ lin.)

 interior interstices somewhat rugose, and the exterior with rows of elevated 

 slightly acute tubercles; at the base of the suture a, narrow ivhitish]ine: legs
