Fabricius has defcribed it in his Spcrcies In-fedtorum under the fpecific name Bifafciatiwi; but he has feparated itfrom the Linnsean genus, and given it the new generic title Rhagium:the Cerambyx Inquifitor, C. Curfor and C. No(ftis of Linnxus, ourprefent fpecies, and R. Ornatum, are the only Infc61s Fabricius hasincluded in the new genus Rhagium. The Rhagium Bifafciatum is rare in this country; it is more fre-quent in France and Germany. It is generally found in putrid flelh. Fia 6o PLATE XCIV. F I G. 11. C E R A M B Y X M O S C H A T U S.
