Since the publication of this passage, the genus Goliathus has undergone a considerable revision; the South American species, Cetonia Ynca, _Fabr._ barbicornis, _MacLeay_, _&c._, have been separated from the genus by Saint Fargeau and Serville in the Encyclopédie Méthodique, under the generic name of Ynca, and the Javanese species above noticed (Gol. Rhinophyllus[25] _Wiedemann_) is stated by Latreille in the Règne Animal, 2nd edition, not to belong to the genus Goliathus, but to that of Cetonia. The genus is thus restricted to the African species,[26] with the exception of a Mexican insect which Dejean has named Goliathus Hoffneri. The genus Ynca may thus be regarded rather as a geographical subgenus, or type of form belonging to and representing the African species of Goliathus. PLATE XXXII. [Illustration] DIAPREPES SPENGLERI.
