The shape, especially the inner margin, recalls the Siberian Jurassic fossil Doggeria sibirica, Hand- lirsch. (The species which Handlirsch refers to Doggeria are probably not congeneric, so D. sibirica is herewith designated the type of the genus.) Chrysomelites quadrilineatus, sp. n. (Fig. 4.)

Elytra 55 mm. long, a little over 3 broad; subquadrate, with obliquely truncate base and apex; outer margin feebly convex ; surface minutely pustulose ; disc with two pairs of Fig. Chrysomelites quadrili?ieatus, sp. n. parallel longitudinal strige, not deeply impressed, the outer- most of one pair 1 mm. distant from the outermost of the other. There are no dark bands or markings ; as preserved the elytron is pale ferruginous. Bartonian, Bagshot Beds, Bournemouth (Gardner). British Museum, 19006, with reverse. The parallel striae suggest the fossil Pachycoleon woodhi (Westwood), from the Lower Purbeck. The insect appears to belong to the Chrysomelidoe, but cannot be referred with any assurance to a living genus. Carabiies peracutus} sp. n. (Fig. 5.) Elytra 11*4 mm. long, 4*3 mm. broad; cuneate, with straight inner margin, strongly convex outer margin, and very acute apex ; a stria close to inner margin, and eight other ones, sharp and distinct, but failing about 3*5 mm. from apex ; on close examination the strise are seen to be obscurely and rather coarsely Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original London, Taylor and Francis, Ltd
