Of these genera those including only exotic species are merely indicated 
with their species by the author (pp. 5, 6 and 47, 48) ; most of the European 
genera are monographically treated, the species being tabulated and after- 
wards described in detail ; for Otiorhynchus Seidlitz refers to Stierlin’s mono- 
graph, and for Peritelus to his own monograph, except the species of Jacquelin- 
Duval’s genus Meira^ which Seidlitz combines with Peritelus. 
Ilyperides. Capiomont has concluded his revision of this gi’oup (Ann. Soc. 
Ent. Fr. 4® s^r. viii. pp. 73-286 ; see Zool. Rec. iv. p. 275). He describes the re- 
maining species of the genus Ilypera (7c. pp. 73-1 13), those of Phytonomus (l.c. 
pp. 114-244) (which he divides into 7 groups or subgenera, named Bonus, Me- 
tadonus, Bririnomorphus, Bapalinus, Tigrmellus, Phytonomus, and Phytonomi- 
dius), Limohius {1. c. pp. 244-251), and Coniatus (7 c. pp. 251-272), the last-men- 
tioned genus being divided into 2 sections, Coniatus vrais ” and ^‘Pagoides.”
