COLEOPTERA. 
Trichognathus immarginipennis^ sp. n., E. Steiuheil, ihid., Columbia. 
Zuphium castelnauiy sp. n., R. Gestro, 1. c. p. 865, Sydney. 
Agastus ustulatus, sp. n., id. 1. c. p. 867, Singapore. 
Helluonides. 
Acrogeny^ and Lachnoderma, W. MacLeay, being possessed of para- 
glossae, have been erroneously attributed by their founder to this group. 
The former is indirectly associated with the Galeritides, and the latter 
referred to the Lehiides. The carination of the elytra in A. hirsuta 
is not sexual, as supposed by Castelnau, but arises from a confusion of 2 
distinct species. R. Gestro, Ann. Mus. Genov, vii. pp. 858-860. Pseu- 
dohelluOy Cast., = Creagris, Nietn. ; p. 868. Helluo costatus. Bon., and 
carinatus, Chaud., differentiated by the antennas ; .Enigma splendenSy 
Cast., and ? AE. parvulum, W. McL., = neiomanniy Cast., which is not 
the % of iriSy Newm. ; p 872. Helluosoma cyaneimiy Cast., is referred 
to HelluonidiuSy Chaud., and is distinct from cyanipenne, Hope ; the genus 
Helluosoma is erroneously written Helluodema by Chaudoir, R. Z. 2, 
xxiii., and this mistake is reproduced in Zool, Rec. 1872, p. 241 [the 
Recorder had scarcely any alternative, as Chaudoir, who presumably 
knew the subject he was discussing, persistently referred to Helluodemay 
which must apparently be altered to Helluosoma in the 5 places on 
p. 241 above mentioned] ; p. 874. Gigademay Thoms., is sectionized by 
the presence or absence of distal thoracic punctuation ; G. hostockiy 
Chaud., is not Castelnau’s species ; G. titanay Thoms. (= noctiSy Newm.), 
is distinct from longipenniSy Germ., and the thorax in each is figured ; 
the thorax differs in the sexes of G. grandiSy W. McL., and is figured ; 
pp. 876-882. Helluodema batesiy Thoms., is not apterous, as Castelnau 
avers, and another species is indicated; p. 882. A synonymic list, 
with bibliographical references, of the Australian Helluonides ; pp. 
883-885. 
Acrogenys longicolliSy sp. n., Gestro, 1. e. p. 859, Queensland and W.

Pogonoglossus sumatrensisy Sumatra, chaudoiriy Cambodia, spp. nn.,

Creagris affiniSy sp. n., id. 1. c. p. 870, Bangkok {C. labrosuSy Neitn., 
and C. wilsoniy Cast., redescribed, and the thorax in all 3 species figured, 
p. 872).

Brachynides. 
J. Putzeys, CR. Ent. Belg. xviii. pp. iii. & iv., gives an analysis of a 
memoir by Chaudoir on this group, which will be printed in the Annales 
of the same society. A new genus, Styphlomerus, distinguished by its 
entirely smooth paraglossae, and with BracTiynus aulicuSy quadrimacu- 
latuSy and equestrisy Dej., as types, is briefly referred to, p. iv. 
Brachynus immaculicorniSy Dej., is distinct from crepitanSy L. ; B. ele- 
ganSy Chaud., = bombarda, Dej., = psophiay Dej., var. ; B. efflans, Dej., 
longicolliSy Waltl, barbaraSy Luc., longicornisy Fairm., = crepitanSy L.,
