CuRCULTONIDiE. 
J. L. Leconte, P. Am. Phil. Soc. xv. (No. 96), pp. 1-455, under the 
heading of “ The Rhynchophora of America north of Mexico,” and with 
the assistance of G. H. ^orn as regards the Otiorrhynchidce, fully carries 
out the scheme already proposed by him, of which an outline is given in 
Zool. Rec. xi. pp. 305-307 (see also Zool. Rec. xii. p. 348). From this work, 
the Brachyceridce, Amycteridoi, and Belidcc are omitted, as not repre- 
sented in the fauna, the following only being di!icussed ; — Haplogastra, 
Rhinomaceridoc, Rhynchitidce, and Attelabidce \ Allogastra, 
Otiorrhynchidce, Curculionidce, and Brenthidcc', Heterogastra, Calan- 
dridce,Anthrihidoi, Scoly tides, SiXidiApionidce. These are recorded separately 
infra, with the exception of the Curculionidce, the arrangement of which 
now differs from that mentioned in Zool. Rec. xi. p. 306, being as 
follows : — 
Family vi., Curculionidce. Mandibles without scar, tarsi with third 
joint more or less dilated, not spinous beneath, antennaa with annulated 
or articulated club. 
A. Condyles of mandibles on outer side, motion lateral. 
a. Mandibles stout, feebly emarginate at tip, with 
inner edge sharp, gular peduncle broad ; rostrum 
short, broad Subf. 1 Sitonidee. 
a a. Mandibles with sharp inner edge; apparently 
emarginate at tip, with an additional cusp : 
b. Antennae geniculate ; gular margin pro- 
minent ; peduncle and mentum retracted 
Subf. 2 Alophidee.
