SCOLYTIDJS. 
In " Les Oiseaux et les Insectes," by E. Perris [supra, p. 227], is a general 
account of the ravages of members of this ftimilj. In many trees, especially 
in those that are resinous, disease is inevitably followed by death ; and dis- 
ease is frequently caused by the perfect insects eating the young top shoots.

BRENTHIDiE. 
Cyphagogus advena, Pasc, re-examined, is apparently refen-ed to its cor- 
rect genus ; Aprostorna, Guer. {Mecedanum, Er.), is a Colydiid, according to 
F. P. Pascoe, Ann. N. H. (4) x. p. 320, who describes the following new 
genera and species : — 
Stratiorrhina, p. 322. Arrhenodince : differs from Este^iorhinus in its 
rostrum being serrate or dentate before the antennae, and in its small con- 
crete mandibles. Type Arrhejiodes xiphias^ Westw. 
Blysmia, p. 323. BelophoriruB : tarsi apparently glabrous beneath ; abdomen 
comparatively short, but nearly twice as long as metasternum. £. rujicollis, 
p. 324, pi. XV. fig. 1, Batchian. 
Fhocylides, p. 324. IthystemncB: antennae shorter and stouter than in 
Prodector or Dhfrus; elytra drawn out at apex to two parallel and contiguous 
tails, nearly as wide as the rest of the elytra. P. collaris, pi. xv. fig. 2, Bat- 
chian, eheninus, Amboina, p. 325, and Brenthus ruficollis, Guer. 
Achrionota, p. 325. Differs from Ithystenus in its linear femora, and in 
having only one sutural stria to each elytron ; and from Dmrus in having the 
rostrum dilated at the apex. A. bilineata, ibid. pi. xv. fig. 3, Sarawak.

Anthribid^. 
Phlceophilus, Schon., is three years posterior in date to Phloeophilus of
