Miill. ; Silaria picta, Hampe, = A. maculata, Fourcr. ; A. thoracica, 
Muls., pt., = lateralis^ Thoms., is renamed confusa^ p. 21 ; var. n. alpicola 
of A. rujicollis, F., p. 22 ; var. n. basalis of A. flava, p. 118, Armenia ; 
A. forcipataj Muls., =z pulicaria, Costa; Mordella albo-signata, Muls., = 
biaignata, Redt., ex. typ. ; M. sacheri, Friv., = vittata^ Gemm., = miro-

is described from Greece ; M. brachyura^ Muls., brevicauda, Costa, 
viridescenSf Costa, and ? insidiosa, Luc., = aculeata^ L., varr., of which

are described, p. 69. Mordellistena nana, Mots., var. n. baudueri, p. 88,

The following new genera, &c., and species are described : —
