According to Kraatz, Berl. ent. Zeitschr. xiii. p. 335, Dorcadion hrandtii 
(Gebl.) is a distinct species from ornatum (Paid.); D. reichei (Chevr.) = 
ghilianii (Chevr.), Sj and not gra'elhii (Gr.), var. ; D. hyzantinum (Thoms.) 
saalhoUncatum (KUst.) and not 1-lineatum (Kiist.), var. ; D. senegalense 
(Thoms.) =mo/i7or (Oliv.), var., its specific name having apparently been 
formed in error from “Gal.,” the usual abbreviation of Gallia,” in which 
country it occurs; 7). mcaustum (Chevr.) (Gr.), var. j D. yoyium

s=caueasicum (Kiist.), with the small variety of which (possibly a distinct 
species, and generally named caucasicum) E. micans (Thoms.) is also 
identical. 
Pascoe (Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. 4th ser. iv, p. 210) recharacterizes his 
genus Anthorcs, which, as he states, is in Lacordaire’s opinion synonymous 
with Lophoptera (Perroud). He points out the differences between these 
two genera. 
Monochamus asperulus (White) is to be referred to 0pepha?'us (Pascoe), 
which is allied to Anthores ; Pascoe, 1. c. p. 211. 
T. Chapman (Ent. Mo. Mag. vi. p. 89) notes live <5 Astynomus cedilis, 
imbedded in a seam of coal in a pit, 147 fathoms below the surface. This 
he correctly supposes must have emerged from timber used in the mine. The 
Recorder has known the same species to occur in the middle of London, 
having emerged from a Scotch fir scaffold-pole used in building. 
Hiblop (Ent. Mo. Mag. vi. p. 108) refers to capture of live Monohammus
