- Summary
- A SHORT account is given of the scientific expeditions and visits of occasional nature by individuals who have contributed in various languages to the knowledge of the Coleopterous fauna of the Auckland Island group. The thirty-five species recorded have been placed in their systematic position, with related references, and when necessary, reasons are advanced for past or present synonymy, accompanied by original descriptions of species not readily accessible to New Zealand workers. A synonymic list, of species is included.
