CALOPACHYS. 







Calopachys, Haury, Le Naturaliste, Feb. 1, 1880, p. 164. 



The following is the only species described of this genus, and is unknown to me 



1. Calopachys viridissimus. 



Calopachys viridissimus, Haury, loc. cit. p. 164 



Hah. Mexico. 



The author apparently is not quite sure of the locality of this remarkable insect, 

 which must resemble in form the species of Callisthenes ; he says " elle doit provenir 



m * I 



du Mexique." 



Subfam. LOBICEBIN^E. 



LOKICERA. 



Loricera, Latreille, Hist. Nat. Crust, et Ins. viii. p. 273. 



A north-temperate and boreal genus, extending in the New World further south than 

 in the Old, one species being found in Mexico and Guatemala. Eight species altogether 

 have been described. 



1. Loricera rotundicollis. 



(Tab. II. fig. 3.)

Hah. Mexico, Capulalpam, Parada, Toluca (Salle), Las Vigas (Edge) ; Guatemala 

 Quiche Mountains (Champion).

* As this sheet is passing through the press a very important and original paper on the structure and classi- 

 fication of the Carabidae has reached me, by favour of the author, Dr. G. H. Horn, of Philadelphia. In this 

 work the Ozseninse (with the exception of the Australian genus Mystropomus) are removed from the first to the 

 second division of the family, Dr. Horn having made the discovery that in Pachyteles and Physea the mesotho- 

 racic epimera do not reach the middle haunch-sockets. There can be no doubt of the accuracy of Dr. Horn's 

 observations as far as the species examined by him are concerned ; but I doubt whether it holds good with 



■ 



all the species. At any rate, the structure of the mesosternum, if not quite agreeing with that of other sub- 

 families of Division L, is quite different from that which characterizes Division II.
