Notes on Table. 



B. hb. Some specimens of niger might almost be regarded 

 as having the process subconical. 



B. ee. This character is such a striking one that it has 

 been used, although it is usually difficult, without breaking 

 off a tibia, to see the carina? clearly. 



FF. Transversus is here included, as the transverse 

 sculpture associates it with G; the elytra, however, might be 

 regarded as subtuberculate. 



K. ff. In angustipictus the metasternum and abdomen 

 are widelv depressed, but the depression is comparatively 

 shallow. 



K. /?. A very small species, not at all likely to be con- 

 founded with any of the four following ones. 



0. Squamibundus is included here, although the front 

 coxae do not appear to quite touch each other when viewed 

 from behind. But it is not at all likely to be confused with 

 any species of 00. 



The following species are not included in the table, as 

 their types are possibly females; but assuming that their 

 types are males their positions would be as follows: — 



Pondericornis. Would be placed with crassicornis, from 

 which it differs in being more robust; rostrum shorter and 

 much more convex, scape stouter and clothing different. 



Lotus and rufipes. These would be associated with 

 camjn/locnemis, but they differ in many respects from that 

 species ; they may be readily distinguished thus : — 



Front coxse touching latus 



Front coxse moderately separated rufipes 



Front coxa? widely separated campylocnemis 



Mandalotus glaber, Blackb. 



There are before me ten specimens, including seven males, 

 that were standing in the late Rev. T. Blackburn's collection 

 as r/laher, or were so identified by him, and one of each sex 

 was labelled as a co-type. The specimens certainly look as if 

 they belonged to but one species, but they quite evidently 

 belong to two, one of which is herein named decipiens. There 

 is fortunately no doubt as to the typical form, the description 

 of the hind tibia? of the male being quite sufficient. The 

 basal segment of the abdomen of the male was described as 

 being "late concavo subinaequali" ; as a matter of fact it has 

 a granule or small tubercle on each side placed exactly in a 

 line with the inner edge of the middle coxae. The following 

 comparison of characters, which are constant in three males
