antennae of Danaccca, pi. 18 ; Phlceophilus cdivardsi, pi. 19. They characterize 
14 new species ; some of which are indicated with a want of precision and an 
apparent lack of belief, on the authors’ part, painfully in accordance with the 
diluted style of their descriptions. 
DoUchosoma suhdmsatum, Muls. ot Uoy, 1. c. p. 189, and suhmicacemn, p. 190, 
France, are admitted by the authors to be of doubtful specific value ; they, 
however, indicate a third quasi-species, under the name of subnodosum, 
p. 191, which, with the other two, seems only a form of D. lineare (Rossi).

Clerid^. 
Anoey (Pet. nouv. Ent. no. 5) gives an account of the habits of Denops 
(dhofasciatus, which is parasitic upon certain species of Sinoxylon and Xylo- 
pertha ; the latter appear to make their galleries in the branches of oaks 
attacked during the past season by Corcehus hifasciatus {Buprestidee). 
Lymexylida?. 
Ilyloscetus luguhris (Say) has been rediscovered, from Michigan. Walsh & 
Riley, Amer. Entom. i. p. 167. 
Ptinid^e. 
Westwood, in Trans. Ent. Soc. 1869 (Aug.), p. 315, considers that, by 
tho analysis of certain new species described by him (/. c.), the genus Ectre- 
phes (Pascoe) is nearly related to Mezium and Gddmim, and has no affinity 
with the Paussidee or Gnostus, to which it has been considered to bo allied. 
He gives the dates of publication &c. of Pascoe’s Ectrephes and King’s Ana- 
pesiusy which are synonymous — the right of priority apparently being due to 
the former.
