AMERICAN COLEOPTERA. 289 



I have already stated that I believe Elater semivittatus Say, to be the 

 older name of this species. 



EUBRIA. 



In a synopsis of our Dascyllidae attention was directed to the differ- 

 ence between the anterior and posterior claws of each pair of feet, the 

 former being deeply bifid, the latter simple. Reasoning from analogous 

 forms in our fauna I had reason to believe that the claws of the female 

 would prove to be simple. While in the British Museum the suspicion 

 was mentioned to Mr. A. Sidney Olliff, and to him we owe the demon- 

 stration of a character which I had suspected from analogy. 



P/eo/obus Philippi, which appears in the Munich Catalogue among the 

 Telephorini is a Dascyllide and identical with Anorus Lee, which is the 

 prior name. 



Tbe tribe Macropoginini, as recognized in our books, will include the 

 South American genus Artematopus, and as Lacordaire has already in- 

 dicated the tribe, his name, Artematopini, should be adopted. The defi- 

 nition of the tribe must, however, be modified in accordance with the 

 views already expressed by me (Trans. Am. Ent. Soc. 1880, p. 77). 



CLERIDAE. 



Cymatodcra gigantea Horn, I find on comparison to be C. Hopei 

 Gray. The latter name should prevail. 



C. texana Gotham, Biol. Cent. Amer. iii. 2, p. 134, is the second of 

 the species indicated by me but not named in my Synopsis, Trans. Am. 

 Ent. Soc. 1876, p. 230. 



Enopliurn humerale Horn. — Mr. Grorham (loc. cit. p. 184) refers this 

 species to Pyticera, but drops my specific name on the ground that there 

 is a humerale in Pelonium. If the genera are distinct the reasoning is 

 not valid. 



CERAMBYCIDAE. 



Callidium nicofas Wht., is merely the dark form of Hylotrupes lig- 

 neus Fab. 



Callidium subfasciel/um Wht., is Phymatodes varius Fab. 



Liopna dorsalis Wht., is a Lepturges, and is from Brazil and not 

 United States. 



From an examination of the cabinet of Mr. H. W. Bates it became 

 evident that our species referred to Pilema are really Galliums, while 

 Callimus chalybaeus Lee, must receive a new generic name, and Poeci- 

 lobrium has been proposed by me* to contain not only that species, but 

 also Callidium rufipes Fab., of Europe.
