Litus Haliday. 



Eut. Mag., vol. 1, 1833, p. 34.5. Two species, one doubtfully included. 



Type. — Litus cynipseus Haliday. (Monobasic.) Litus dimidiaiiis Hali- 

 day, designated by Westwood, 1840 (Synopsis, p. 78), v.-as doubtfully 

 included in the genus. 



In the original proposal of this genus Haliday first named the species 

 cynipseus without comment. Under dimidiatus, the other included 

 species, he remarks : " This and the preceding may be considered as the 

 probable types of distinct genera * * *." While it is not clear from 

 this remark which of the two species Haliday thought should probably 

 be made the type of the different genus, we believe the place in which 

 the remark quoted is made justifies the assumption that dimidiatus was 

 the doubtfully included species and hence that Westwood's designation 

 of it as type is illegitimate. In further justification of this contention 

 it should be noted that acceptance of dimidiatus as type of Litus would 

 sink Leimacis Forster as a synonym and make it necessary to propose a 

 new name to contain Litus cynipseus Haliday.
