Having acquired the collection of Dejean, and examined the types of a 
great number of species in the chief European collections, the author again 
publishes a treatise upon the insects belonging to this group, from which 
he eliminates Eccoptomenus, Asporinus^ xmii. llarpostoinus. Amhly genius^ 
Laf., is sunk in Chlamius, A. chloenioideSj Laf., being only C. quadricolor, 
F. As additional, but merely negative, characters, it is noted that the two 
hinder pairs of tarsi never have any lateral furrows, and that there are 
never any impressed points on the 3rd interstice of the elytra. One new 
genus and 404 species of Chlcenius are described (including very many 
new), and 8 of AnomoglossuSj Hololius, Penthimus, and Bhopalistes. Much 
synonymy is established, especially as to Dejeanian species. Chkenius
