Reiche, Ann. Soc. Ent. Fr. (6) i. pp. 82 & 83, reviews the nomenclature of cer- 
tain European spp. According to him, Epico7netis tonsa, Burm.,= Tropi[do]nota 
[ Tj'opidonotus in Reptilid] hirtella, L., abraded ; Cetonia femorata, 111., having 
the anterior tibiae bidentate, cannot be included in Epicometis, Burm., in which 
those members are stated to be tridentate, and a new generic division (or sub- 
division) is proposed for its reception, under the name Paleira ; C, feralis, Er., 
in like manner, and for the same reason, cannot be referred to JEthiessa, 
Burm., and a new division, Brachytricha, is suggested for it ; C. viridijhm, 
Mots., =sg'^«^mosa, G. & P ,,^refxdgens, Hbst., but the latter cannot be referred 
to Jloncola, F., as Schaum has opined } C. Uncta, Germ., is an JEtkiessa, next 
after refxdgens j C. soxigorica and fasciata, Biach., —purpw'ea, Burm., sec. ex- 
empl. from Mannerheim ; C. jousselmi, G. & P., and C. speciosa, Adams, 
cannot be admitted as varr. of (xruginosa, Drury {fastuosa, F.). 
Epicometis Mrtella and Oxythyrea stictica. Kiinstler (Verb. z.-b. Wien, xxi. 
Beih. pp. 25 & 26) discusses injuries to cultivated plants from these spp. 
Cetonia metallica, according to Nowicki {ihid. p. 8, note), is injurious to 
corn -plants. Vars. from Samarcand of C. affiicta, Gory, and sibirica, Gebl., are 
recorded by Solsky, Hor. Ent. Ross, viii, p. 146. 
Cremastochilus. Horn, 1. c. 1871, pp. 339-341, pi. iii., tabulates the Ame- 
rican spp., figuring details of planatus, schaumi, and nitens, Lee. He notes 
that the cupule of the mentum becomes more acute at its hinder angle, and, 
as a rule, less deep in its concavity, as the spp. occur near the Pacific ; and, 
remarking on the connexion of certain spp. with ants, suggests that the fossae 
at the anterior angles and the finely punctured and apparently perforated 
patches under the posterior angles are glandular, and yield some secretion. 
Tnehius forttmatoruxn, Blanch. Wollaston (Tr. E. Soc. 1871, p. 257) con- 
siders the reference of this or any other Tiichius to Tenerifte to be most pro- 
bably erroneous.
