1. Collyris, Fabricius. 



I am acquainted with about twenty species of 

 Collyris, the major part of them are from the 

 Continent of India ; they abound in all the Presi- 

 dencies and in many of the Islands of Asia. They 

 appear to have been much neglected by our Ento- 

 mologists, with the exception of Mr. MacLeay, 

 who has described some new species from Dr. 

 Horsfield's rich Javanese collection.* 



2. Tricondyla, Latreille. 



The species of Trycondyla are few in number 

 compared with Collyris, only six have fallen under 

 my inspection ; for a better acquaintance with them, 

 apply to De Jean's Species de Coleopteres ; to 

 Guerin's Icones du Regne Animal Ins. pi. 3, fig. 

 3. Silberman's Revue, t. 2, p. 38. To Vander- 

 linden's Cicindeles de Java, page C 2J, and the 

 Zoologischer Atlas, by Eschscholtz, Fas. 1, p. 6. 



* For information respecting the species, refer among French 

 authors, to De Jean's Species general de Coleopteres ; to Guerin's 

 Iconographise ; to Bellinger's Voyage to the East Indies by the same 

 writer ; to the writings of M. M. Brulle and Laporte ; and Sil- 

 bermann's Revue Entomologique, Tab. 2, p. 1 1 . and Tab. 2, p. 37. 

 Vanderlinden sur les Cicindeles de Java should also be consulted.
