Epiphysa of De Jean. It seems to be a mediate 

 form, between the Erodiidae and the Pimelidae. 



Sp. 4. Gibba. — I regard this species as a Moluris. 

 The locality in Fabricius is reported to be from 

 India ; in Olivier's work both Africa and Asia are 

 mentioned. I obtained this singular form at the 

 purchase of Lee's insects ; it approaches somewhat 

 to Moluris, and might be formed into a sub-genus 

 belonging to that family. 



Sp. 6. Globosa.— There is great contention re- 

 specting this species. I regard it as a Pimelia; 

 Westermann tells me it is certainly a Moluris. 



Sp. 7. Glabrata.— This insect is probably the 

 other sex of Gnaptor laevigatus. 



Sp. 11. Muricata. — Now a Pimelia. There are 

 two species named Muricata ; that mentioned by 

 Linneus appears to be an Adesmia. The Fabrician 

 one is still a true Pimelia. 



Sp. 12. Tuberculata. — I give this species on the 

 authority of Latreille and De Jean as an Acan- 

 thomera ; the figure however in Herbst's work 

 resembles closely a Pimelia. 



Sp. 15. Scabra. — Now a Moluris of Latreille. 

 In the Banksian Cabinet two distinct insects are 

 labelled with the name of Scabra; the first is a 

 Moluris from the Cape of Good Hope, and the 

 second a true Pimelia from Siberia. There are 

 two specimens of each ; one of the latter appears 

 as if it was a manufactured specimen. 



Sp. 27. Canaliculata. — I regard this insect as be- 

 longing to the genus Amatodes of De Jean.
