Old World. I am not aware of its appearance in 

 Africa ; some few East Indian species have fallen

Sp. 3. Bicolor. — Now a Phalacrus of Paykull. 

 Of the known European and extra European spe- 

 cies, the numbers are nearly equal ; they are met 

 with in North America and its adjacent isles, and 

 in Africa, the island of Mauritius, and most likely 

 in various parts of Asia ; although I cannot state 

 any recorded species from the latter locality. 



Sp. 4 & 5. — Belong at present to Illiger's genus 

 Agathidium. All the known species appear to in- 

 habit Europe.
