This genus has little affinity with any other of this tribe: the 
species of it, unless closely examined, would be set aside as be- 
longing to Calosoma or Carabus. They are however heteromerous, 
and belong to the Tenebrionide. 1 know only three species, the 
two here described, and the other Calosoma porculatum of Fabri- 
cius. They are all New Holland insects.
