Those curious little beetles, the Brenthidse, were very abundant in Aru. The females have a pointed rostrum, with which they bore deep holes in the bark of dead trees, often burying the rostrum up to the eyes, and in these holes deposit their eggs. The males are larger, and have the rostrum di- lated at the end, and sometimes terminating in a good-sized pair of jaws. I once saw two males fighting together; each h
