24 Mr. G. R. Waterhouse's Notes on 



comparison with specimens of the H. femoralis (well described 

 under that name by M. Allard), I am convinced it is specifically 

 identical. The black on its hinder femora, as in the insect named, 

 is chiefly confined to the upper part, in which it differs from the 

 nearly allied insect H. ochroleuca of Marsham, which has the 

 apical half of the posterior femora black. The insect I have 

 taken plentifully at Darent, and near Reigate, on the Echium 

 vulgare, and think I cannot be mistaken in this identification. 



37. Chrys. nit'idula (Faun. Suec. 167, 543) = Crepidodera, id. 



38. Chrys. nemorum (Faun. Suec. 167, 543) = Phyllotreta, id. 

 The legs are not entirely pale, as described, for the anterior 

 femora are dusky at the base, and the posterior are black. 



39. Chrys, rnjipes (Faun. Suec. 168, 545) = Crepidodera, id. 



40. Chrys. fuscicornis (Syst. Nat. 596, 66) = Podagrica, id. 



41. Chrys. holsatica (Faun. Suec. 168, 544) = Cyphon padi. 

 The Linnaean description, although it might possibly have been 

 taken from this insect, undoubtedly squares better with the insect 

 usually attributed to it — the Hallica holsatica. 



42. Chrys. tridentata (Faun. Suec. 168, 546) = Clythra, id, — 

 at least of the British authors. 



43. Chrys. quadripunctata (Faun. Suec. 168, 574) = Clythra 

 quadripunctata. 



44. Chrys. bipunctata (Faun. Suec. 168, 548) = Cryptocephalus, 

 id. of SufFrian, &c. If this insect be really a variety of the Crypt, 

 lineola, Fab., as is supposed by M. SufFrian, it is ralher remark- 

 able that, whilst the latter is pretty common in England, the 

 former is not found with us. 



45. Chrys. quadripustulata (Faun. Suec. 165, 549), Myceto- 

 phagus, id. 



AQ,. Chrys. Morcei (Faun. Suec. 169, 550), Cryptocephalus, id. 



47. Chrys. nitida (no doubt the Chr. nitens of the Faun. Suec. 

 169, 551) is = Cryptocephalus, id.
