TEICTENOTOMIDiE. 
Trictenoioma is considered as a survival of a series “ which in former 
ages represented the objects that are now known as Tenebrionidce, with a 
strong resemblance to Prionidce and Lucanidce, and perhaps a slight ten- 
dency towards CuGujidce” similar views having been expressed before by 
the author with regard to the Spondylidce. The characters are discussed 
in detail ; and observations are made on the original and earliest ideal 
forms of Coleopteray and the indications of their existence afforded by 
existing insects. J. L. Leconte, Tr. Am. Ent. Soc. v. pp. 167 & 168.
