SOME TYPE SPECIMENS OF LEPIDOPTERA AND COLEOPTERA. 9 



Stenocara aranipes. 



cJ Pimelia aranipes, Olivier, Ent., iii. 59, p. 17, n. 22, t. 4, f. 6 (1795). 

 $ ,, longipes, Olivier, Ent., iii. 59, p. 16, n. 20, t. 1, f. 3 (1795), nee. Fab. 

 Stenocara herbsti, Gemminger, Col. Heft, vi., 1870. 



Type of aranipes in Dufresne collection. The $ of this species is the same as Olivier's longipes, 

 described on the previous page of the Entomologie. The latter name, however, was preoccupied 

 by Fabricius, whose species of that name is an Adesmia. On this account the species was re-named 

 by Gemminger, but aranipes is now the correct name. 



EUSCELUS CRIBRARIUS. 



Attelabus eribrarius, Olivier, Ent., v. 81, p. 8, n. 5, t. 1, f. 5 (1807). 



Types (2 specimens) in the Dufresne collection. This species appears to be rare, and is unrepre- 

 sented in the British Museum collections. It is represented in the Plate at fig. 9. 



Sphbnophorus sericeus. 



Calandra sericea, Olivier, Ent., v. 83, p. 84, n. 14, t. 28, f. 409 (1807). 

 „ sericea, Latr., Humb. et Bonpl. Voy., i. p. 206 (1811). 



The types (2 specimens) are in the Dufresne collection. Latreille is usually quoted as the authority for 

 this species, but Olivier's description is earlier by four years. 



HOMALONOTUS VALIDUS. 



Curculio validus, Olivier, Enc. Meth., v. p. 499, n. 131 (1790). 

 Rhynckstmus validus, Olivier, Ent, v. 83, p. 157, n. 124, t. 15, f. 186 (1807). 



Types (2 specimens) in Dufresne collection. 



HlLIPUS APIATUS. 



Ehynchsenus apiatus, Olivier, Ent., v. 83, p. 171, n. 144, t. 28, f. 424 (1807). 

 Type in Dufresne collection. 



Ph^dropus candidus. 



Curculio candidus, Fab., Syst. Ent., p. 146 (1775). 



„ tomentosus, Olivier, Enc. Meth., v. p. 536, n. 288 (1790). 



Olivier, Ent., v. 83, p. 343, n. 394, t. 13, f. 155, a, b (1807). 



Type of Olivier's species in the Dufresne collection. 



Cyphicerus novemlineatus. 



Curculio 9-lineatus, Olivier, Ent, v. 83, p. 417, n. 513, t. 26, f. 377 (1807). 

 Type in Dufresne collection. 



Cerambyx interruptus, Olivier. 



The type of this interesting species, which is represented in the Plate at fig. 8, is in the Dufresne collec- 

 tion, and is probably unique. It has been carefully examined by Mr C. J. Gahan, who considers it 

 the type of a new genus, which he characterises as follows : — 



" Zonotylus, gen. nov. (Fam. Cerambycidae), 



"Head rather narrow and slightly concave between the antennary condyles, the latter having each a 

 small angular process at the upper margin just in front of the upper lobe of the eye. Eyes finely 

 facetted, deeply emarginate. Last joint of labial palpi with a distinct pit on the outer surface 

 (maxillary palpi wanting). Antennae of the female scarcely longer than half the body; third joint a
