Otiorhynchides . 
Otiorhynchus. Stierlin publishes (Berl. ent. Zeits. 1866, pp. 129-135) a 
supplement to his revision of the European Otiorhynchi, including descrip- 
tions of several new species and of new varieties of O. alpicola, mocstus, and 
navaricus. 
Otiorhynchus. Rye (Ent. M. Mag. ii. pp. 181-182) refers to O. fuscipes, 
O. ambiguus, and some other species, and indicates their distinctive charac- 
ters. The true O. fuscipes (Oliv.) does not seem to occur in British collec- 
tions, where it is represented by O. tenebricosus. O. ambiguus (Steph.) is 
very nearly allied to O. rugifrons (Gyll.), if distinct. O. fuscipes is further 
discussed by Smith & Rye (/. c. pp. 232-234). 
Gautier des Cottes maintains, in opposition to Aube (see ' Record ’ 1864, 
p. 407), that his Omias raymondi, trichopterus, and marqueti are distinct 
from each other and from O. concinnus. Bull. Soc. Ent. Fr. 1866, p. lx. 
Phyllohius scutcllaris (Redt.). Kiesen wetter (Berl. ent. Zeits. 1866, 
pp. 287-288) discusses the variations of this species as observed in individuals 
from different localities. He regards P. alpinus (Stierl.) and P. xanthocne^ 
mus (Kies.) as varieties of it.
