Epirinus armatus, Boh., is a CoptorrhinUj and C. gramdifera, liar., is pro-

Caccobiusj Thoms. : Jokd, R. Z. (2) xxiii. p. 405 et seq.y discusses the cha- 
racters of this genus, which he restricts to schreheriy L., mundus and his- 
teroideSy M6ndtr., denticoUis and ?JessoensiSy Harold, in which the prosternum 
is tricarinate, having a supplementary longitudinal keel, the body is glabrous, 
and the metasternum strongly convex, longitudinally subgibbous in the 
middle, and scarcely channelled. He only finds these characters in the 
above 6 species out of 350 others in his collection.
