The Great European GOAT-CHAFER. Capricornus 
maximus Europeus. Given by Sir Philip Skjppon. Defcribed 
by Moufet. 'Tis about two inches long. Of a dark brown 
or Musk-colour. He hath on his Forehead two flender 
Horns, knoted or with many Joy nts 3 above an inch long, 
and commonly {landing backward, like thofe of a Goat, 
from whence his Name. 
The Goat-Chafer, faith Moufet, being weary with flying, 
to fpare his weak Legs, wraps his Horns (I doubt weaker than, 
bu Legs) about the Twig of a Tree, and fo refts himfelf. 
The LONG-SHELUD GOAT-CHAFER. Capricornus 
Vaginh longioribus. I think no where defcrib'd. It i$ 
above an inch long, and the Wing-fhells of themfelves 
an inch, being prolonged near * of an inch beyond the 
Anm 5 and near ^ an inch broad 3 fo deep, as to come down 
below the Belly on both fides. All over of a ftraw-colour. 
The Shoulders a little knobed. The Neck, red 3 and about 
* of an inch fquare. The Head ftill leffer ? fcarce fo big as a 
Flejh-Flys.
