APPENDIX. 3^5 



thorax anteriorly with a curved impression extending to the angles ; the 

 sides considerably dilated, rugose and elevated towards the posterior 

 angles ; an abbreviated dorsal channel ; the base rugosely punctate, and 

 the whole disc beautifully strigose : elytra ovate, a little depressed, 

 delicately punctate-striate, and the interstices minutely strigose : between 

 the second and third strise are five impressed dots, and in some specimens 

 another nearly at the termination of the seventh stria, and an irregular series 

 of impressions on the margin; deeper towards the apex, and of a triangular 

 form ; beneath shining dark green, with a brassy tinge ; femora and tibise 

 shinmg black, reflecting a rosy tint ; tarsi totally black." — Davis, I. c. 

 Inhabits " the high moors near Halifax, during the winter." — Davis, I. c. 



Page 96. Genus 36. ODONTONYX, Steph. 



This genus is restricted to a single species. Car. rotundicoUis of Marsham : 

 the other species of my Catalogue, No. 151, forms a portion of the 



Genus 36 a. OLISTHOPUS, De Jean, 

 which differs chiefly in having the claws simple, the thorax rather more 

 orbicular, and in being generally provided with ample wings : the mentum 

 without a tooth in the centre of its anterior notch. 



The only species, 01. rotundatus, occurs in plenty in most parts of the king- 

 dom, and also in Scotland.

 Steph. JVomen. 2d edit. col. 7. — " Ferrugineus ; capite antennarumque apicibus

" Palpi, the three basal joints of the antennae, prothorax, elytra, and legs, 

 pale ferruginous; the remaining joints of the antennae are deep black, each 

 slightly tipped with ferruginous : elytra striate, without any punctures." — 

 Newman, I. c. 



Locality unknown : in Mr. Davis's cabinet; probably a variety of C. mollis.

subtus piceus, pedibus riifis, thorace subquadrato elytr'is arete juncto, elytris 



9-striatisj striis As-punctatis." — Paykull, 1. c. 

 Black, pitchy beneath, legs red ; thorax subquadrate ; elytra with nine striae, 



of which four are punctate. 

 Curtis gives this as synonymous with Ca. crocopus of Hoffmansegg (Sp. 5), 



with which it has evidently nothing to do, as pointed out in page 100. 



Page 107. PoGONus chalceus. Under this name it appears at least two 

 species are included : the first, the true chalceus of Marsham, may be thus 

 characterized: — " JEneus thorace quadrato, postice aubcoarctato ; elytris sub- 

 elongatis, suboblovgo-ovatis, striuto-punctatis, striis exterior e obsoletis, punc~ 

 tisque tribus impressis ; pedibus rujis oEneo-micantibus." ( Long. corp. 2^ — 3 lin.) 



Brassy; thorax quadrate, a little narrowed behind; elytra rather elongate, of 

 an oblong-oval, punctate-striate, the outer stria; vanishing, on the disc three 

 impressed dots : legs red, with a brassy tinge.
