Kaiicloin ^itiidies in IVorth American Coleoptera. 



BY GEO. H. HORN, M. D. 



The following iiote.s Imve been prepared with the view of niakiiig 

 known to others some facts in synonymy which have become known 

 to me in various ways, and incidentally to describe a few new species 

 belonging to groups which have been too recently monographed to 

 require an entirely new study.

In the male of this species the posterior femora are thickened near 

 the tip with a vei-y obtuse angulation beneath. The trochanter is 

 about half as long as the fenuir. The femur of the female is not 

 dilated, and the trochanter much shorter. The scutellar stria is 

 never long, and in some si)ecimens nearly wanting.
