lands, Teil 28, p. 228, fig. 361.— Pahnen, 1952, Ann. Zool. Soc. 



'Vanamo', vol. 15, No. 1, p. 20.— Blower, 1953, Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., 



ser. 12, vol. 6, p. 307. 

 Type: Mus. Hauniensis (Copenhagen) . 

 Type Locality: Demnark. 



Range: Europe and North America, where introduced. The only definite 

 American locality thus far is Newfoundland, but in all probability part of the 

 records for latistriatus pertain to this species, the two being easily confused. 



Diploiulus punctatus (Leach) 



Julus punctatus Leach, 1817, The zoological miscellany, vol. 3, p. 34. 



^ Meinert's types embrace specimens of this species and of latistriatus. Since the latter 

 species must bear the prior name given by Curtis, it seems entirely proper to restrict 

 luscus to the second species as here done.
