Cerambyx reticulator is a very rare fpecies; we have never feen more than two fpecimens of it. It is 
altogether a beautiful infe&t; but the fingular ftructure of the antennz deferves particular notice: it is 
entirely brown except the firft articulation, which is black; the fecond has a large verticillated tuft of 
black hair at the fummit; at the bafe of this articulation it has another tuft, but {maller; and a fimilar 
tuft, but ftill fmaller, is fituated on the third and fourth articulations.
