Blastophagus piniperda. Observations on its power of emitting sound, 
by K. Lindemann, Bull. Mosc. xlix. pt. 1., pp. 143-146. This is possessed 
by both sexes, and the apparatus is found on the upper side of the penul- 
timate and antepenultimate abdominal segments and the under side of 
the apex of the elytra, the sound being produced by the friction of a 
file (with about 250 prismatic furrows) on the latter, against two 
minutely ridged spots on each of the former. This structure is wanting 
in B. minor.

dimorphism not previously known in the Scolytidcey with two distinct 
forms in the ? , and only one form in the $ . K. Lindemann, 1. c.

“ Bostrichus Bulmerincqii," Kolenati. E. v. Harold, 0. H. xiii. p. 163, 
in referring to the Recorder’s mention of this species in Ent. M. M. x. 
p. 229, corrects the generic name to Bostrychus, adding in a note, “ and 
not Bostrichus, as Rye writes it ! ” with an observation as to the diffi- 
culty of eradicating such mistakes. The Recorder, however, has for 
many years employed the correct reading Bostrychus (see Zool. Rec. 1869 
to date), but in quoting Kolenati’s names he thought it better to do so 
literatim, a correction of the generic name necessitating also some altera- 
tion of the specific, which the Recorder did not feel inclined to touch. 
Harold himself gives this latter, 1. c., incorrectly (for a quotation) as 
“ Bulmerincqui.**
