In rearranging parts of my collection to conform to the 

 order in the new list, it became necessary to transfer my Cli- 

 vinae to a new box. In so doing the species were examined 

 somewhat critically, and certain errors in the last published 

 table (by LeConte) were noted, to which it may be well to 

 call attention. 



The genus Clii'ina, fortunately perhaps, has long escaped 

 the attention of systematists, and except for the placing of 

 collaris Hbst. as a synonym of fossor L., the species stand in 

 the Leng List just as left by Dr. LeConte in the table pre- 

 pared with others for the Brooklyn Bulletin in 1879. As for 

 collaris and fossor, these two introduced forms, though closely 

 allied are now considered distinct by the best European author-

 Ganglbauer, in his Co1cof->tcni mn Mittclcuropa, gives the dis- 

 tinguishing characters, of which the rufous c-lytra with black 

 suture in collnris is an all-sufficient criterion. I'ossor is not 

 so colored, the elytra being of nearly uniform tint, usually
