Tainophthalmid(B.*^ 
Desbrochers, Ann. Soc. Ent. Fr. (5) ii. p. 42G, considers the erection of a 
separate tribu ” under the above name necessary, to follovs^ Brachycerus in 
the European lists, comprising a new genus characterized by him as 
Tainoplithnlmus [^Tfrinophthalmmy on’ the author’s own derivation], in whicli 
the rostral scrobos are not united bonoaih, the mandibles only slightly pro- 
ject and are not arched, the prothomx has no lobes, &c. T. crotchiy sp. n.,

rently published simultaneously. 
Pascoe, Ann. N. II. (4) x. p. 01, tabulates the known genera of tlie short- 
scaped species forming Lacordaire’s Euoynides. Bhalidura scorpioy Bois., 
seems the species on which Schonherr founded EuomuSy naming it E. fahrcci
