Show 378 MR. G. R. CROTCH ON AZOREAN COLEOPTERA. [Mar. 28, 124. PISSODES NOTATUS, Fabr. From pine trees at Horta, Fayal; but evidently introduced. 125. LAPAROCERUS AZORICUS, Drouet. M. Drouet described this on specimens from Fayal; Mr. Godman, however, found it abundantly in S. Miguel under stones. It represents a curious form of the genus, differing from the Canarian species considerably in aspect. 126. OTIORHYNCHUS SCABROSUS, Marsh. Beaten from hedges at Ponta Delgada, S. Miguel. New to the Atlantic fauna. 127. 0. SULCATUS, Fabr. One specimen, from the Lagoa das Furnas. M. Drouet records it from Terceira. It is new to the Atlantic fauna, though doubtless introduced. 128. HYPERA VARIABILIS, Hb. Under refuse in Terceira, not common. 129. ASYNONYCHUS GODMANNI, n. Sp. Two specimens of this new and interesting form were beaten from brambles at Horta, Fayal. 130. NEOCNEMIS OCCIDENTALIS, 11. Sp. One specimen only was swept from flowers in Santa Maria by Mr. Brewer. 131. SlTONES LINEATUS, L. In S. Miguel, Terceira, and Fayal, common. M. Drouet records it also from Pico. 132. S. FLAVESCENS, Marsh. One specimen only, by sweeping in Santa Maria. This is a curious variety with a triangular pale sutural patch, not rare in South Europe. It is, however, new to the Atlantic fauna. 133. S. GRESSORIUS, Fabr. Abundant in Terceira and Fayal, in cultivated grounds. 134. BRUCHUS PISI, L. Abundant in gardens in S. Miguel and Flores. 135. B. AZORICUS, n. sp. In S. Miguel, Terceira, and Fayal, not rare in flowers. This species is probably not indigenous; but I have been unable to identify it with any described form. |
