GENERIC NAMES OF THE FAMILY STAPHYLINIDAE 149 



ENCEPHALUS Kirby— Continued 



Notes : Westwood states that the genotype species was first put in Aleochara 

 and hiter removed to the new genus Encephalus by Kirby, in which action 

 he was followed by Stephens. There appear? to be no evidence that this 

 was in a publication, but rather in the extensive Kirby manuscripts.
