The author refers to a commencement by him of this work in 1875, in 
the Russian language, of which the part published includes Scolytus and 
Phlceophthorus. This scheme he intends to abandon, meaning to write 
the whole in German, including a translation of the part already issued 
in Russian. The present portion consists of a general introduction, a 
classification of Rhynchophora and Tomicidee, and a system of the Cry- 
phaloid species. He follows Thomson to a certain extent, dividing 
Latreille’s Curculionites into twelve separate equivalent groups, viz., 
Bruchidee, Anthribidoe, Rhinomaceridee, Attelabidce, Apionidoe, Curculio- 
nidee, Rhynchcenidee, Rhyncolidce, Scolytidee, Hylesinidce, Tomicidee, and 
Platypodidce. To these conclusions, the author has been led by a 
minute anatomical study of the digestive apparatus of a limited number
