arch in the form of a very thin sharp ridge as far as the apex of 
the posterior coxae, which occurs in H. s eric arts and intermedius 
and in Phyrites aureolus and Augyles hispidulus (vide infra) . 
Heterocerus. Scliiodte proposes to divide the Danish species of the genus 
Heterocerus of authors into the following 3 genera : — 
1. Heterocerus (1. c. p. 157). Antennae 11-jointed, with an abrupt club, 
joints 3 and 4 very small; maxillary lobes spinulose ; inner lobe of mandibles 
membranaceous, with a membranaceous comb. Danish sp. : — H. femoralis 
(Kies.), sericans (Kies.), ohsoletus (Om’t.), Ic&cigatus (Panz.), / wscmZws (Kies.), 
marginatus (Kies.), and intermedius (Kies.). 
2. PhyriteSy g. n., Scliiodte, 1. c. p. 159. Antennaj 11-jointed, club in- 
creasing gradually from joint 8; maxillary lobes spinulose; inner lobe of 
mandibles bifid, lower division membranaceous, with a membranaceous comb, 
outer one horny, fringed, with 5 or 6 very thick horny spines. Sp. P. 
aureolus, sp. n., Scliiodte, 1. c. p. 159, Denmark. 
3. Augyles, g. n., Scliiodte, 1. c. p. 159. Antennae 10-jointed, club abrupt, 
joints 3 and 4 very small; maxillary lobes setulose ; mandibles as in Iletei'o- 
cerus. Sp. A. hispidulus (Kies.). 
Macronychus quadrituhereulatus (Miill.). Janson records this as a native of 
Britain. Proc. Ent. Soc. 1$66, p. xxxvi. 
Heterocerus arenarius (Kies.) and Hlmis. troglodytes (Gyll.) are recorded 
as British by Crotch (Cat. Brit. Col.) and Parnus nitidulus by Sharp. See 
Bye, Ent. Ann. 1807, pp. 70-77. Bye also figures Macronychus Ar-tuhet'- 
cidatus (Miill.), op. cit. Frontisp. fig. 2. 
Heterocerus punctatus, sp. n., Brisout, Ann. Soc. Ent. Er. 4° sdr. vi. p. 373, 
Beynosa. 
Ehnis latiuseidus, sp. n., Leconte, Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci, Phil. 1800, p. 380, 
Pennsylvania; E. nitidulus, Leconte, ibid., New York. 
LuCANIDtE. 
Cyclommatus metallifer (Boisd.). Deyrolle figures the head and mandibles, 
of this species. Ann. Soc. Ent. Belg. ix. pi. 2. fig. 1. 
Cladognathus lateralis (Hope) is also figured by Deyrolle, 1. c. pi. 1. fig. 3, 
Dorcus costatus (Lee. Cat.)=Z). paralklus, var., according to Leconte, 
Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Phil. 1800, p. 380. 
New species — 
A new species of Ceratognathus ( C. setiger, Howitt), from Hobartpn, and a 
new species of Lissotes {L. furcicornis, Howitt), from Victoria, are indicated 
by Janson among other Australian Coleoptera. Proc. Ent. Soc. 1800, 
p. xxxi. 
Amneidus, g. n., Coquerel, Ann. Soc. Ent. Fr. 4® s^r. vi. p. 325. Allied to 
Agnus', mentum very large, emarginate in front; joint 1 of labial palpi long 
and slender, 3 twice as long as 2 ; anterior tibiae much curved and furrowed 
in cf j nearly straight in $ , with two teeth outside, and a small recurved 
spine inside at the apex, and with 2 small teeth before the middle inside in 
cf , which are larger and sometimes 3 or 4 in number in $ . Sp. A. gode~ 
froyi, sp. n., Coq. 1. c. p. 320, pi. 7. fig. 1 (with details), from Bourbon.
