 Habitat. " CoromandeJ, Mus. Dom. Banks," Fabricius. 



In addition to the Banksian specimens, still preserved at the Linnsean Society, 

 there is a specimen of this curious species in the collection of the Bntomlogical 

 Society of London, from the Kirbian cabinet. The antenna? being mutilated, I am 

 unable to decide whether it be strictly an Aphana, to which genus, however, it is most 

 nearly allied.
