1829. Mabckl de Serres, Geognosie des terrains tertiaires ou Tableau des principaux animatix 

 inrert^bVvs des terrains marins tertiaires du midi de la France. 16mo. Montpellier 

 et Paris. 



Contains a "Tableau des Arachnldcs et des Insectes fossiles da bassln tertintre d'Aix (Bouches-du- 

 Rhfine)," printed In the preceding ciutlon, In which (p. 230; p. 107 of preceding) occurs the genus 

 "Papilio," with the remark: "Nous citons Icl, sous la fol d'autrul, un L6pldopt6re dlume de la 

 division des Satfms," doubtless referring to A'eorinopis tepulla. 



Spealcing of the authors who have treated of the fossils of (Eningen, he says : (p. 235) " Ces divers natu- 

 ralistcs y ont signal^ des Scarab6es, des Lucanus (p. 236) fort rapproch£s du Lucanus cervus, des 

 PapiUons," etc. 



In a "Tableau g4n6ral des Arachnldes et des Insectes fossiles" he gives on p. 257, the following: 



In the "marnes calcaires" of Alx he has referred already, as we have seen, to one; he previously speaks 

 of PapiUons at fEningen (see above) and may therefore place two In the second column ; he quotes 

 Sendeiius as probably figuring caterpillars in amber as follows (p. 242) : " Des L6pidopt6rcs (M. 

 Brongniart). On a cru reconnaitre des chenilles parmi les insectes du Succin flgur6s par Sendeiius 

 Tab. 3, fig. 28-82 ; '" and this accounts for one in his third column ; and the following passage from 

 the section on "Insectes fossiles des terrains secondaires infMeurs, ou de transitions" (p. 246) 

 accounts for that in the fifth column : " 11 se pent que ce solt figalcment dans des formations de la 

 mfime «poque qu'exlstent les vestiges d'lnsectes, d'alles de Papillons et de Scarabfies signals par 

 Bromel."

 Gesellsch. Vaterl. Caltur, 1854, 92-93. 



Gives a general enumeration of the collection of fossils fTom amber In the museum of the Konigsberg 

 Society, specifying a few Lepldoptera. 



I Probably an error for Tab. 5, llg. 28a, 28b, which seems to represent a Tenthredinidons larva.
