DASCILLIDiE, 
' Hydrocyphon. Be Marseul has published some remarks on this genus, 
and described the known species II. dejkxicollis (MUll.). L’Abeille, tom. i. 
pp. xiii and xiv. 
Thomson maintains that the genus Eucinetics (Germ.), generally referred 
to the family Pascillidce, is shown, by its general characters, and also by 
the nature of the larvae (as described by Perris), to belong rather to the Ca- 
topide group of the Necrophaga. Ofversigt Kongl. Vet. Akad. Forhand.
