letter dd. 
15 J n. 54, I found the following 
Baron CUVIER, 1852. Insecta 
In continuation of rp 
remark in GRIFFITH The animal Kingdom b3r 
Vol.I. p.515. 
**We "believe this unique insect is in the collection of Mr. Maoleay, fI 
And in Supplementa Entomologica No.12. 15 Marz 1926: p.81. 
Me LEAY, A. - Samml• (1848) p.n seinen Sohn William Sharp Me LEAY Jr. 
ex p?,rte (Typen zu "Annul. Javanica”) via East India Go. an Brit. Mus. ; 
ex parte (1865) via dessen Vetter Sir William Me LEAY an Me Leay Mus. 
(University) Sydney• 
There is therefore a third possibility, viz. the Type of Scarab, raac- 
jropus being in Sydney, when it is not found either in Oxford or in the 
British Museum. 
From the Entomol. Institut Berlin-Dahlem I saw the work of FRANCILLON 
So I could ascertain that the dr wing I possess, is the original of 
the upper figure of the plate in FRANCILLON*s work. There must be a 
second drawing of the under figure, representing the underside of the 
Insect. But where shoul that be? 
With kind regards 
Yours sincerely
