GENERIC NAMES OF THE FAMILY STAPHYLINIDAE 41 



AGACERUS Faiivel— Continued 



Notes : Eurycenis was de.scrilx^d by Fauvel on page 244 with the species 

 pectinatus on page 245. Sometime before publication the generic name in 

 front of the trivial name on page 245 was changed to Agacerus and a foot- 

 note added that indicates that Agacerus was intended as a replacement 

 name for the preoccupied Eurycerus. It is hard to see why Fauvel failed 

 to delete the Eurycervs altogether, since both pages apparently were 

 published in the same number (August), being still bound in a single 

 number with original covers in the copy in the Casey Library.
