the Old Continent. The true type of the genus 

 Helluo is H. Costatus Leach, a New Holland insect, 

 differing entirely from other Asiatic species. 



Sp. 5, 6, 7» & 8, belong to the Siagonidse. The 

 two genera belonging to this sub-family are Ence- 

 ladus of Bonelli, and Siagona of Latreille. It seems, 

 according to Laporte, that Lsevigatus, (Ent. Syst. 

 p. 143, No. 86), is an Enceladus, the country of it 

 is probably Cayenne.

The four first genera of this family may be 

 considered as true Brachinidse, the remaining three 

 will eventually no doubt be formed into a sub- 

 family, as they most probably belong to the 



Ozamidae.
