 rias, which it rivals in magnitude. There is no 

 notice of this species in Olivier's work. 



Sp. 54. Surinamus. — Now the type of Monsieur 

 Serville's genus Achryson. Fabricius named dif- 

 ferent varieties of this insect, — Fallens, and Cir-

 Surinamensis. 



Sp. 61. Ramphygeus. — Now an Eburia of Ser-

 Stenochorus.

 a sub-genus allied to Callidium. Schonherr makes 

 it a Stenochorus, Gmelin a Calopus ; for the 

 present J give it as a Callidium. 



Sp. 68. Lurid us. — Now a Tetropuim of Mr.

 names, when their generic characters are un- 

 published. I think that nearly half of the genera
