I need only remark on one Fabrician species 

 named Sulcatus, which appears to be a Ditomus of 

 Bonelli, and belonging to the Ditomida? of Audouin, 

 one of the families pertaining to the Caraboidea; 

 Scarites Bucephalus of Olivier is the same insect ; 

 so also is the Carabus Clypeatus of Rossi.* 



Sepidium, Fabricius. 



The genus Scarites in the Systema Eleuthe- 

 ratorum follows Scaurus, as it has already been 

 treated of in its natural place, I pass onwards to 

 Sepidium, and I feel inclined to consider Sepidium 

 entitled to rank as a family. The following genera 

 belong to it : —
