The greater part of the fourth livraison of this work,^ published 
in 1865, is occupied by the synoptical tables of the genera, &c., 
commenced in the third livraison of 1864, or, to state the matter 
more precisely, the tabular analysis of pp. 13-336 occupies 
pp. 337-481! This is followed by a list of errata and syno- 
tiymic corrections, and this by an appendix to the supplement^ 
containing references to new genera established since the pre- 
paration of the body of the work, especially those proposed by 
Pascbe in tbe first part of his ^ Lohgicorilia Malay ana.^ This 
portion also includes the chafacters of one or two new genera. 
Thus, as M. Thomson states (p. 497), apparently with some little 
pride in the part he has taken in bringing about such a result^ 
the number of proposed genera of Longicorns here referred to 
is 1178, of which,, he adds, more than one-third are of my 
creation.^^ The remainder of the work is occupied by a full 
alphabetical index of genera and species, Und by the diagnoses 
of 251 new species, which* will be fully described in an appendix 
to the ' Systema Cerambycidarum/ 
Wollaston, T. V. Coleoptera Atlantidum, being an enumera- 
tion of the Coleopterous Insects of the Madeiras, Salvages, 
and Canaries. London, 1865, pp. xlvii, 526, & 140. 
In this work Mr. Wollaston has brought to a focus, as it 
were, the entire results of his investigations of the Coleoptera of 
the group of Atlantic islands comprising Madeira and its de- 
pendencies in the north, the Canaries in the south, and the 
detached rocky Salvages in the space between these. The 
general results of these researches were indicated in the ^ Record ^ 
for 1864 (pp. 337, 338) in noticing the author^s Catalogue of 
Canarian Coleoptera ) the present volume includes the results of 
an investigation of the Coleoptera of some of the Canary Islands 
by the Messrs. Crotch, which, with the addition of a few species 
discovered by other observers, somewhat alter the numerical 
relations of the constituents of the fauna. The total number of 
known species recorded in this work, as derived from the whole 
of the islands, is 1449 \ of these, 1007 occur in the Canaries, 
661 in the Madeiras, and 24 in the Salvages. Of the whole 1449 
species, 1039 are considered to be peculiar to the islands, the 
remaining 410 being known in other countries, especially the 
south of Europe and north of Africa. But a great number of 
the 1039 species are marked by the author as possibly only 
geographical modifications of species known elsewhere j others 
will probably occur in the Mediterranean region; but Mr. WoL 
laston considers that of the whole about 700 (or hearly half) 
may be Regarded truly endemic, or peculiar to the province of 
which the several islands are detached parts
