Mr. F. X. Stampfli, whom I left in Liberia at the end of May 1887, repatriated last summer and brought home an important number of Birds skins, most of which are collected at three stations: Owen’s Grove, Mount Olive and Gallilee Mountain on the Farmington River. Only relatively few have been obtained at our old station at Schieffelinsville (March 1888) and at Paynesville on the Messurado River (April 1888). The Farmington River is a very important confluent of the Junk River, having its general direction about parallel with the Du Queah River and joining its water with that of the main river half a mile above the mouth of the latter, and seven or eight miles lower than the Du Queah. Going up the Farmington River by canoe, both banks are flat and covered... |

Shell elongate, dark fleshy brown, with large white riblike nodules and a white infra-sutural line; whorls 10, the apical ones a little eroded, smooth, the next 2 with rather indistinct ribs, the rest with conspicuous white nodules, which become larger up to the last whorl; on this whorl, which is somewhat oblique, they are smaller on the ventral side, it shows a very large nodule before the aperture and a second row of much smaller ones, which are not visible on the upper whorls. The surface of the shell is covered with faint spiral lirae, which are more distinct on the nodules. Suture linear, irregular in consequence of the nodules of which there are 9 on the last whorl, besides 12 of the second row, and 6 or 7 on the upper whorls, where they occupy... |

Among the Macronota’s described and figured in Gory and Percheron’s »Monographie des Cétoines (1833)” there is a small species from West-Africa, viz.: Macronota apicalis G. & P., which, though with some doubt, was placed by the authors in the genus Macronota, composed of Asiatic species only. Our advanced knowledge of the distribution of Cetoniid genera induces us to consider the occurrence in West-Africa of a species, belonging to an exclusive Asiatic genus, a fact of much doubt. Moreover the figure of M. apicalis is not at all representing the peculiar facies of a Macronota, but looks much more like a Glycypliana with a slightly lobed prothorax. |

Il y a seulement quelques mois, que j’ai eu la bonne chance d’obtenir d’un de mes correspondants en Sumatra central, uu exemplaire de la rarissime Macroma gloriosa Mohn., exemplaire qui se rapportait parfaitement à la description soignée du Dr. Mohnike. Tout récemment, je viens de recevoir par l’obligeance du Dr. Gestro, un premier lot des doubles des chasses de M. Fea en Birmanie, et j’y trouve une Macroma, déterminée aussi gloriosa Mohn. Malgré la localité continentale, cette détermination ne m’offrait à première vue rien d’extraordinaire. La présence de la coloration si caractéristique semblait exclure tout doute. Ce ne fut qu’un peu plus tard, en voulant l’intercaler dans ma collection auprès de son confrère insulaire que je fus frappé par quelques... |

Consulting a few days ago W. S. Macleay’s »Annulosa javanica” (London, 1825) I was surprised to find in this work (p. 48) the description of a Chelonarium-species. This description seems to be overlooked, as the species is not mentioned neither in the Munich Catalogue (vol. III, p. 930) nor by Reitter 1), Chevrolat 2) and Fleutiaux 3) who have described other Oriental species of this genus. I therefore believe it not without interest to give here Macleay’s description of the first known oriental representative of this interesting genus. |

In the „Genera des Coléoptères” (VIII, p. 300) Lacordaire, in accordance with Guérin’s views, ascribes to the female of Orion patagonus Guér. a prothorax which is more strongly rugose than in the male and the callosities of which are less numerous and but little conspicuous. Now the Leyden Museum possesses two specimens of O. patagonus (one from Magellan: Patagonia, the other from Cordoba: Argentinia) which, no doubt, are male and female, but these two have the thorax quite similarly sculptured. The male, however, is smaller and of a somewhat brighter colour; it has the antennae somewhat longer, and the apical half of the elytra subshining in consequence of its being rather vaguely sculptured; in the female, however, the apical half of the elytra is opaque... |

Long. 5 mill. — Ovalis, sat elongatus, postice attenuatus, parum convexus. Capite et pronoto pallide testaceis, hoc postice sat late, illo postice in medio nigro et in elytris fortiter producto. Elytris nigris, ad latera vitta submarginali medium attingente, maculisque duodecim aliis albido-testaceis singulatim ornatis; corpore subtus, pedibus et antennis fulvo-testaceis. Supra tenuissime reticulato et vix visibiliter punctulato. Cette grande et charmante espèce se place au voisinage des L. pictus Cast. et insignis Sharp, mais s’en distingue par le nombre et la disposition de ses taches qui sont ainsi disposées: une bande submarginale s’étendant de la base au milieu où elle se dilate en dedans, quatre taches sublatérales dont les trois premières sont plus... |

Dans les »Notes du Musée de Leyde”, Vol. X, p. 121, Mr. Joh. Schmidt publie des observations sur deux Histérides: Hololepta sternincisa et Hister Leseleuci, dont j’ai donné la description dans cette même Revue (Vol. VIII, p. 149). Dès 1876, j’avais décrit l’Hister Leseleuci sur un exemplaire du Grand-Bassam, mais la description était restée dans mes cartons, lorsque Mr. Ritsema m’envoya en communication 12 exemplaires provenant de Libéria et 5 de Humpata, que je crus devoir y rapporter, les premiers particulièrement, malgré quelques légères différences. Mr. Schmidt prétend que les exemplaires de Humpata appartiennent à une espèce différente de ceux de Libéria, qu’ils sont identiques à son Mechowi, et de plus que le Leseleuci n’est qu’un synonyme du... |

This species, the second hitherto described from the Malayan Archipelago 1), belongs to Parry’s 2) Section A (mandibles robust, with a recurved process at the base), a (prothorax punctate, with a central fovea), *(anterior angles of the prothorax non-emarginate), and is therefore allied to cornutus Macl., distinctus Parry and obesus Parry. — From the latter it differs by its narrower and more elongate shape, by its finer punctuation, by the otherwise shaped sides of the head and front angles of the prothorax, by the presence of a tubercle on the centre of the front margin of the thorax, etc. — From cornutus and distinctus it differs in the shape of the mandibles, of the sides of the head and of the prothorax; this latter shows moreover a much finer... |

Among a few insects from Goldie-River, New-Guinea (30 miles inland from Port Moresby), I obtained an Erotylid, which proved to belong to the newly erected genus Euzostria Gorh. (Notes from the Leyd. Mus. X, p. 140, pl. 7, fig. 6) founded upon a single specimen of a new insect from the Aru-Islands. The comparison of my specimen with the description of this species ( E. aruensis Gorh.), offering several differences, I was inclined to regard my New-Guinean insect as a closely allied but distinct species. However, after a careful examination of the type-specimen, I think it will fie better to consider the New-Guinean form as a variety, at least provisionally, until the arrival of a more extensive material shall allow us to obtain certainty. As- the spotted... |

A small species which is allied to Pachyteria parallela Rits. (Notes Leyd. Mus. 1881. p. 36). Length 19 mm.; breadth at the shoulders 5 mm. — The head, the prothorax and the scutellum bright metallic green; the smaller basal half of the elytra ochreous, with faint purplish tinges, the greater apical half dark bluish green, brighter towards the apex, and provided just before its middle with a slightly waved, narrow, transverse, ochreous band which touches neither the sutural nor the outer margins; the two basal joints and the basal third of the 3rd joint of the antennae black, the remaining joints ochreous; the meso- and the metasternum as well as the legs aud the abdomen violaceous blue, the latter tinted with green. The vertex of the head, a transverse... |

Horst, R.. |
The sub-genus Perinereis, according to Grube’s views, contains all Nereis-species, characterized by having the lateral dorsal paragnathi of the basal ring of the proboscis (group VI) all or some of them transverse, ridge-shaped, the remaining paragnathi being conical, or pin-shaped (»pectiniformes” Kinberg), or compressed; the feet all of the same structure, or those of the posterior region of the body more enlarged. This division mainly corresponds to Kinberg’s family Aretidea, and not to his genus Perinereis, containing the species, which have no pectiniform teeth and but little modified posterior feet. However it seems preferable to me to maintain Kinberg’s name, as I do not like to increase the systematical literature with a new one, and because the... |

A closer study of the Bat exhibited in my »Catalogue systématique des Mammifères, 1888, p. 158” as variété insulaire of Eonycteris spelaea forces me to separate it from the named species and to regard it as a new species belonging to a genus very different from all the hitherto described genera in the Macroglossine-group. Its index-finger is without a claw like in Eonycteris, Nesonycteris and Notopteris. It differs from Notopteris by a much shorter tail, by its dentition and by having the wings not from the central line of the back; it differs from Eonycteris by haying the wing-membrane attached to the second toe (not to the first) and by its dentition; it differs from Nesonycteris by haying a well developed tail and another dentition. The following... |

1. Nigidius amplicollis Qued. (Berl. Ent. Zeitschr. XXVIII (1884) p. 266), first recorded from the Quango (v. Mechow) proves to be a widely distributed species. I have specimens from the Upper Zambesi and from the N’Guru mountains (Zanzibar). 2. Nigidius laevigatus Har. (Mittheil. d. Münch. Ent. Ver. II (1878) p. 100 & Coleopt. Hefte XVI (1879) p. 31) 1), originally described from a specimen captured by Dr. Pogge in the interior of tropical Africa (Lunda-land), then recorded by Quedenfeldt from the Quango, extends its range also towards the East-Coast, my specimen being from Lake Nyassa. |
