Otiorhynchides. 
ScHAUFUSS remarks (Col. Hefte, ii. pp. 21-22) that Otiorhynchua echinatua 
foveicollia were described by Ilochhuth in the Moscow Bulletin, and that 
the same author described an O. elongatua in 1847. Schaufuss proposes the 
name of O. francolinm for Stierlin’s O. elmigatua (/. c. p. 22).
