 ARTHETA [Error for Atheta]. 

 ARTHOCHARIS Cameron, 1921b, p. 372. [Error for Lithocharis.'i 



Notes : Although I formerly believed that this was a separately validated 

 name, it seems obvious to me now that it was merely a lapsus calami and 

 as such has no status in nomenclature and has no genotype.

Notes : Since the name Baryodma must be applied to the subgenus con- 

 taining AZeoc/mra bipunctata (Olivier), apparently Isochara, the subgenus 

 called Baryodma by Bernhauer and Scheerpeltz was without a valid name 

 until now.
