COLEOPTERA. 



In the following list the species obtained by Mr. Etheridge's party are 

 distinguished by an asterisk. 



CAEABID.E. 



*Scaraphites Macleayi, West IV. 



ScarapMtes Macleayi, Westwood, Arcana Entom., 1842, I, p. 157. 



The occurrence o£ a typical Australian species of Scaraphites, a genus of 

 large wingless ground beetles, in Lord Howe Island, is particularly interesting 

 in view of the limited distribution of the group. A considerable number 

 of specimens, which were found beneath logs, &c, have been obtained by the 

 collectors who have visited the island. ♦ 



Cliyina vagans, Putz. 



Glivina vagans, Putzeys, Stett. Ent. Zeit., 1866, p. 38. 



Several specimens, which only appear to differ from this species in their 

 somewhat larger size (9^ mm.), and rather less narrowed prothorax. 0. vagans 

 is found in Tasmania and also in South Australia. 



Cliyixa, sp. 

 A small copper-coloured species. 



*CiiLiENius PEREGErsus, Laferte. 



Chlcsnius peregrinus, Laferte, Ann. Soc. Ent. Prance, 1851, p. 247. 



Common in Norfolk Island as well as throughout the Australian continent.
