  Mr. 
  G. 
  C. 
  Champion's 
  list 
  of 
  

  

  to 
  agree 
  better 
  with 
  the 
  description 
  of 
  the 
  Algerian 
  

   H. 
  puncticollis, 
  Luc, 
  than 
  with 
  that 
  of 
  H. 
  carbo, 
  Kiist. 
  ; 
  

   from 
  an 
  Algerian 
  example 
  of 
  the 
  former 
  before 
  me 
  they 
  

   merely 
  differ 
  in 
  having 
  the 
  thorax 
  more 
  sparsely 
  and 
  

   finely 
  punctured 
  on 
  the 
  disc. 
  

  

  Helops 
  (Nesotes) 
  tuber 
  culipennis, 
  Luc* 
  

  

  Gibraltar 
  ; 
  a 
  few 
  specimens, 
  Eather 
  commonly 
  at 
  

   Tetuan 
  and 
  Tangier. 
  In 
  some 
  of 
  the 
  Gibraltar 
  examples 
  

   the 
  upper 
  surface 
  is 
  of 
  a 
  more 
  shining 
  and 
  more 
  bronzy 
  

   tint 
  than 
  in 
  those 
  from 
  Marocco, 
  others 
  again 
  are 
  very 
  

   dull 
  black 
  ; 
  the 
  punctures 
  of 
  the 
  elytral 
  strife 
  are 
  also 
  

   coarser 
  in 
  some 
  specimens 
  than 
  in 
  others. 
  One 
  example, 
  

   from 
  Tetuan, 
  has 
  the 
  thorax 
  much 
  less 
  transverse 
  than 
  

   usual 
  ; 
  the 
  elytra 
  in 
  all 
  exhibit 
  the 
  characteristic 
  tuber- 
  

   culate 
  apical 
  interstices. 
  An 
  addition 
  to 
  the 
  European 
  

   list.

   Isomira 
  ovulwn, 
  Kiee.* 
  {acuminata, 
  Fairm.). 
  

  

  Gibraltar 
  ; 
  Eock, 
  &c., 
  not 
  uncommon 
  ; 
  chiefly 
  on 
  the 
  

   blossom 
  of 
  CliamcBrops. 
  Previously 
  recorded 
  from 
  

   Gibraltar 
  by 
  Crotch 
  (Petites 
  Nouv. 
  Ent., 
  i., 
  p. 
  49) 
  under 
  

   the 
  name 
  of 
  I. 
  acuminipennis, 
  and 
  by 
  v. 
  Heyden 
  (Berl. 
  

   ent. 
  Zeitschr., 
  1870, 
  Beih., 
  p. 
  144). 
  I. 
  acuminata, 
  Fairm., 
  

   from 
  Tangier, 
  Marocco 
  (specimens 
  of 
  which 
  are 
  before 
  

   me), 
  is, 
  no 
  doubt, 
  synonymous 
  with 
  J. 
  ovulum. 
  

  

  Isomira 
  murina, 
  Linn. 
  

  

  Gibraltar 
  ; 
  by 
  sweeping 
  near 
  San 
  Eoque 
  ; 
  scarce. 
  

   These 
  examples 
  have 
  the 
  thorax 
  fusco-ferruginous. 
  

  

  Omophlus

  spring 
  and 
  early 
  

   summer 
  ; 
  abundant. 
  

  

  Omophliis

  Omophlus 
  rufiventris, 
  Waltl. 
  

   Gibraltar; 
  chiefly 
  on 
  thistles, 
  early 
  summer; 
  common. 
  

   Apparently 
  replaces
