Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Biologia Centrali-Americana, Vol. 4: Insecta, Coleoptera, Rhynchophora, Curculionide�, Curculionine� (Continued)
The system of publication here adopted, the only one possible by which any rapid progress could be made and the plates prepared at the same time, has prevented me from tabulating the genera of such a large group as the Barina; it would, however, have been of little use, unless the vast number of Tropical South American forms had been studied also, a task beyond the scope of this work.
