Vahl's collection. Latreille makes mention of a 

 species which he names Cyanea ; can they be the 

 same, as both are from the East Indies ? 



Sp. 6. Megalocephala. — For the sake of euphony 

 the word Megacephala is used instead of the former. 



Sp. 9- Sepulchralis. — In my MSS. I formerly 

 gave the name of Scythropa as a generic name to 

 the above species, as it is previously used by Schon- 

 herr in his CurculionidsB, I have substituted the 

 name of Aniara from awa/joymsestus. There cannot 

 be a doubt that the species (described by the Baron 

 De Jean as Meg. variolosa) is the same as C. 

 sepulchralis, Fab. 



Sp. 10. Bicolor.— There are three insects from 

 the East Indies very similar in their appearance, 

 viz. Cic. bicolor above mentioned, the second is 

 Cic. pulchella Hope, described in the Synopsis of 

 the new species of Nepaul insects in the collection 

 of Major General Hardwicke, and the last is a new 

 species lately received from my friend Col. Whithill 

 from the Concan which I propose to name after him, 

 the description will be added. All the three belong- 

 to the genus Calochroa, the type of which I make 

 Cic. 8-notata, Wiedemann. 



Calochroa Whithillii. Long. lin. 7- lat. lin. 2^.
