Chaudoib, Ann. Ent. Belg. xv. pp. 5-16, monographs the portion of this 
suhfamily restricted by him under the name Drimostomtdes, which he con- 
siders to form a point of transition from his Ahacetides to the MorionideSj 
though admitting their relation to the Feroniides. In it he includes only 
Drimostoma, Dej., oindi Stomonaxus, Mots., with 3 other genera. D, costatum, 
'Lai.,=punctifrons, Chaud. ; D. rnfipes, Boh. (? marginale^ Walk.), and ?Stom. 
seulptipennis, Mots. {D. ceylanicum, Nietn.), = S. (Z>.) striaticollis, Dej. 
The species of Drimostoma described by Oastelnau are probably Ahaceti\ 
D. fuscipes, Brulle, is an Adrimus, D. mexicanum, Chevr., a DiploharpuSf 
D. 4-pustulatum, Peyr., an Abacetus, and D, laticolle, Laf., does not belong 
to the group. Stomonaxus is erroneously compared by Motschoulsky with 
Drimostoma, and certain species of the latter are transferred to it. 
Strigomerus, g. n., id. I. c. p. 7. Antennae filiform, 3rd joint much 
shorter than the rest, which are elongate-quadrate and somewhat robust ; 
tarsi slightly pilose above, evidently unisulcate in the middle. Type S. 
(^Drimostoma) schosnherri, Dej. 
Hoplizomenus, g. n., id. I. c. p. 8. Allied to Drimostoma (no differential 
characters given). Type H. cari?iattis, sp. n., id. I. c, Guinea. 
Diceromerus, g. n., id. I. c. p. 15. Closely allied to Stomonaxus. Type

Pterostichus cupreus. Rupertsberger, Verh. z.-b. Wien, xxii. p. 7, fully 
describes the larva ; also the pupa, found among pupae of Aphodius fcdem. 
At p. 9 he gives particulars of the habits of the insect and of the young 
larvae bred from the ^egg-state in captivity. P. vulgaris : larva and pupa 
described J id. ihid. pp. 573-575. 
Platyderus tmrians, Schauf., is not identical with lusitanicus, Dej., or with 
montanellus, (amQlh, ) but Haptoderus cantahricus, Schanf., =nemoralis, Gt. :
