22. Anoplognathus inustus. Kirby, Linnean Transactions 12 405. 23. Repsimus aeneus. Melolontha aenea. Fab. Syst. Eleuth. 2 page 166. 30. 24. Repsimus dytiscoides. Horae. Entom. 1 page 144. 2. 25. Buprestis macularis. Buprestis macularia. Don. Ins. of New Holland, table 8. 26. Buprestis imperialis. Fab. Syst. Eleuth. 2 page 204. 98. 27. Buprestis suturalis. Don. Ins. of New Holland, table 8. 28. Buprestis variabilis. Don. Ins. of New Holland, table 7. 29. Buprestis kingii (n.s.) B. elytris striatis nigro-violaceis testaceo-quadrifasciatis haud bidentatis, thorace punctato nigro-aeneo lateribus testaceis. Obs. This species comes perhaps too near to some of the darker varieties of B. variabilis, of the true appearance of which scarcely any idea can be formed from the figures of Donovan. Our insect bears a remarkable similarity to a Surinam Buprestis, with serrated elytra. 30. Buprestis bimaculata. Lin. Syst. Nat. 2 662. 16. Oliv. Ins. 2 32, table 12, figure 140. Obs. This is an East Indian Insect; and, as Captain King collected a few species in the Isle of France, this is probably one of them. 31. Buprestis fissiceps. Kirby, in Linnean Transactions 12 page 458, table 23, figure 4. 32. Buprestis lapidosa (n.s.) B. cuprea scabrosa thorace lineis duabus parallelis longitudinalibus elevatis, elytris integris subacuminatis substriatis inter tuberculos punctatis, corpore subtus aeneo. 33. Elater xanthomus (n.s.) E. ater antennis apicem versus dilatatis serratis, thorace punctato canaliculato, elytris punctatis striatis pubescentibus basi late auratis dimidiatis. Obs. This insect is about four lines long, and entirely black, except the upper half of the elytra. 34. Elater nigro-terminatus (n.s.) E. luteus cavite antennisque atris, thorace convexo macula longitudinali sub-acuminata a margine antico ultra medium attingente, elytris punctato~striatis apice late nigris, anoque nigro. Obs. This insect is about the same length with the former, having its feet and underside entirely yellow, excepting the head and a black anal spot, something like the letter V. 35. Lycus serraticornis. Fab. Syst. Eleuth. volume 2 1ll. 6. 36. Lycus septemcavus (n.s.) L. ater thorace parabolico fossulis septem, quatuor anticis fere aequalibus, posticarum media angusta lanciformi, duabus lateralibus latis antice emarginatis. Scutello quadrato nigro; elytrls rubris marginatis lineis quatuor elevatis, interstitiis duplici serie punctorum transversorum crenatis. 37. Lycus rhipidium (n.s.) L. ater antennis fiabellatis; thorace angulis porrectis obtusis, fossulis septem, posticarum trium media longitudinali lanciformi; scutello quadrato nigro; elytris rubris marginatis lineis novem elevatis, quatuor alternatim majoribus, interstitiis crenatis. 38. Telephorus pulchellus (n.s.) T. capite thoraceque nigro-nitidis, hujus margine postico late rufo, elytris viridi-caeruleis tomentosis punctatis ad suturam marginatis, corpore pedibusque nigris abdomine subtus rufo.
