of these corrections the author has the authority of authentic types. Sub-

mis, Fald., to sinuatus, 01., pulveridentus, 01., to cinereus, 01., and considers 
europcens, Thunb., a doubtful species. Cf. also id. Bull. Soc. Eut. Fr. (5)

TainophthalmidceJ^ 
Desbrochers, Ann. Soc. Ent. Fr. (o) ii. p. 426, considers the erection of a 
separate " tribu " under the above name necessary, to follow Brachycerus in 
the European lists, comprising a new genus characterized by him as 
Tainophthalmus [Tceniopldhalmus, on the author's own derivation], in which 
the rostral scrobes are not united beneath, the mandibles only slightly pro- 
ject and are not arched, the prothorax has no lobes, &c. T. crotchi, sp. n.,

smooth surface, and minute concolorous scales. /. occlusus (pi. xiii. fig. 8)

Amy derides, 
DoHRN, S. E. Z. xxxiii. pp. 143-154, continues his digestion of the 
Amycterus mirus-rabilis-rabundus question raised in a former volume. A. 
chaudoiri, Guer., and harelini, Boh., are the same species, and were appa- 
rently published simultaneously. 
Pascoe, Ann. N. H. (4) x. p. 91, tabulates the known genera of the short- 
scaped species forming Lacordaire's Euomides. Phalidura scorjyio, Bois., 
seems the species on which Schonherr founded Euomus, naming it E. fahrcei 
(p. 85). 
^driodes, g. n., id. I. c. p. 85. Eyes small, roundish, away from the thorax, 
notwithstanding its ocular lobes. Euomus nodipennis. Boh., and fasti"
