AUTHOR OF ** Essay on the Fossorial Hymenoptera,” and ‘ The Elements of British Entomology.’ LONDON: PUBLISHED BY W. CROFTS, 19, CHANCERY LANE. 1840. LONDON: PRINTED BY C. ROWORTH AND SONS, BELL YA AP TEMPLE BAR. iT 3 cee «OO huckard, William Edward, 13027-1548, he British Coleaptera delineated PREFACE. In presenting this work to Entomologists, I do it with the fullest confidence of its being well worthy their acceptance. The deficiency of a similar undertaking has long been felt, and this can be fully appreciated when we reflect how very inadequate descriptive language is to convey a clear and distinct notion of the ever-varying modifications of form observable in the insect world. Considering its scope and object, this work, as one of illustrations in this science, and containing 638 figures, is certainly the most complete that has yet issued from the press; and in artistical exe- cution I will affirm—and which I, sharing in no portion of that merit, may do without egotism—that there is none yet published that surpasses it; and for delicacy of out- line it is unrivalled. It is very superior in execution to Panzer and Olivier, whose plans were too vast to admit of completion: and although it wants colour to vie with the best, yet in careful accuracy I am convinced it is not by that even surpassed. It has the advantage of being done throughout from the originals, which, as many of the genera figured are unique, could of course only be accomplished by the kindness of the several Entomologists in whose possession those unique and rare insects existed ; or who, with genuine scientific liberality, furnished me for “my own collection with the means of supplying deficient forms. ‘To Messrs. Bennet, Desvignes, Hope, Little, Mat- thews, Newman, Rudd, Stephens,,Walton and Waterhouse, a2 1V mine and the work’s best thanks are due for the unlimited confidence with which they entrusted out of their own pos- session their several rarities, and which, I am happy to say, met in no instance with any casualty. To Mr. Curtis I am also indebted for my own means of examining and for Mr. Spry’s liberty of delineating at his residence a form extant in no other British Collection; and likewise to the Officers of the Zoological Department of the British Museum for the urbanity with which they met and forwarded my objects in the several instances I had occasion to examine their rich stores. Having thus paid the debt of gratitude due for being enabled to complete within the short period of twelve months so extensive an undertaking, for which the praise must be bestowed upon the incessant and unflinching per- severance of Mr. Spry, it is next requisite to give some account of my own peculiar portion of the task, as editor. The primary object was to produce a work that should be cheap as well as useful, and to compass the former it was not possible to introduce dissections of the parts of the mouth, which I freely admit are in many instances requisite to show the distinctive differences of certain genera where forms are closely allied, or where in long genera the species range divergently from the types. This would of course have incurred a great cost of time, the value of which must necessarily have been thrown upon the work, and which thus, although it would have acquired to a certain extent a greater degree of utility, would from the additional expense have limited considerably its circulation, for the Entomolo- gists to whom a work of forms is most acceptable and use- ful are the young. A reciprocating task is therefore left to be performed between description and figure: to fulfil the former several English works already exist, and it would have intrenched considerably upon the property of those Vv works, (the entomological public being so small,) had the letter-press of the present extended to a full generic de- scription, as I consider a synoptical description worse than useless. I therefore chose the only alternative of giving nothing more than an outline of my own views of the distri- bution of British Coleoptera, and a very brief specific de- scription to exhibit the colouring of the species figured. And even had the generic descriptions been added and made full, it could not have precluded the necessity of occasionally referring to other works for information which it would not have contained without a seriously detrimental increase of bulk and cost; and I have, therefore, preferred making it supplemental to all works upon the subject, to _ which it will be found a desirable, important and even ne- cessary auxiliary. I have added a selection only of the foreign genera that have occurred in Britain: indeed, it was of but little moment if any of these were figured; but I did so, thinking it might be acceptable to many, although there can be scarcely a doubt that they have all been accidentally introduced. In the census of species I have exercised the discretion I thought requisite, either in limiting or interrogating the re- pletion with which our lists are swollen. Truth should be the object of all inquiries, and it is quite as prejudicial to the advance of science to exaggerate as it is to depreciate the extent of our natural productions. W. E. SHuckarp.

Page 6.—Genus [44] and [50]. Transpose the names, both generic and spe- cific, as [44] should be Olisthopus ; and alter at Pl. 6, fig. 3, the name Odontonyz to Olisthopus. Subsequently to Olisthopus being figured I discovered that no insect had yet been found combining the characters of Olisthopus, in form and trophi, with the denticu- lated tarsi of Taphria (Synuchus). This Mr. Stephens has since admitted to me to have been an accidental error. I have therefore in Pl. 7 necessarily omitted Odontonyr, as not extant in nature, but have inserted its name to show that it is purposely left out. Page 28.—Alter the numbering of fig. 6 into 8, 7 into 6, and 8 into 7. Page 49.— Alter the reference of Genus [421], Tenebrio, to fig 3, instead of fig. 2; and the reference of the next genus [422], Stene, to fig. 4 instead of 3. Note that Stene is identical with Tribolium figured in the Supple- ment, Pl. 2, fig. 5, which from haste I did not discover until too late to cancel it. Tribolium is the name therefore to be adopted, as it was described by Mr. Macleay in the “ Annulosa Javanica”’ in 1825; and although not originally a native, as it now breeds here, like other domestic insects that have been in- ge with merchandise, it may perhaps be admitted in our ists, The genus Ecanus I have been obliged to omit, as I could not obtain either the unique British or even a foreign specimen of it. The publication of Dr. Erichson’s works since the commencement of the present have introduced several new genera amongst the Staphylinide, by the dismemberment of the old genera, Antho- bium and Lesteva—the differences however lie chiefly in the trophi. I have therefore thought it not requisite to give figures of them, as I could not introduce them into their proper places. BRITISH COLEOPTERA DELINEATED COLEOPTERA. Linnzuvus. Section I. PENTAMERA,.

Note.—It is here that the genus Lissoprema, Curt. should be placed, instead of among the Engide, for its type is an insect congeneric with the Spheriestes quadri pustulatus, Marsh. which was the original type of Mr. Kirby’s genus Spheriestes, but the Sph. niger having been treated as such, and as there are evidently two forms of structure in the antennee of the genus, it will be convenient to treat those in which the club is gradually formed, of which the type is the niger, and to which the one-figured be- longs, as the genus Spheriestes, and those in which the club distinctly consists of three joints, as Lisso- dema.
