well-rounded angles and tlie form of tliat of Ihtrpuliix herhiragiis. 

 Unlike Harpalioi, however, it has three dorsal series of elytral 

 punctures, 4 or 5 in each row, located on the yd, 5th, and 7th' inter- 

 vals. The tibial and tarsal angles are not prolonged; the fore 

 tarsi are spinulose beneath, slightly dilated; the first joint of the 

 hind tarsi is not elongate. The antenna has the proximal two joints 

 glabrous; the eyes are rather small; the left mandible is chisel- 

 shaped, slightly overlapping the right; the labial palpi are plurise- 

 tose in front, the last joint slightly shorter than the preceding one; 

 the mentum is acutely toothed at middle, its epilobes are narrow, 

 and it has a single setigerous puncture at each posterior angle.

Apical part of tliinl vein ot elytra witliin tlie Iilaclc band raiseil on an

Note 15, p. 244. — Lfciini's jildcidus. This species may readily 

 be separated from iJama as follows: 



Mandibles of male rounded, ecarinate; of female strongly carinate on the inner 

 side of the dorsal surface — especially over the subapical tooth— and usually 

 a lower carina along its outer margin; top of head of female anteriorly ru- 

 gosely punctate and very opaque; elytra and thorax shining. dtuiM Thunb. 



Mandibles of both sexes subtriangular in cross-section, their dorsal surface 

 concave, with a strong carina along its outer margin only; the inner edge 

 sharp, bidentate in the female and multidentate in the male; entire dorsal 

 surface of insect with dull luster. ..... j}lariilii.i 8ay. 



Note 16, p. 248. — J'/uicep/ioh's caiKJlda. Ur. Horn descriljed this 

 from two specimens as "nearly white." It has, in fact, a color 

 pattern similar to that of (ihx.-urd, in pale brown and white. The 

 thorax has a dorsal darker stripe divided by a fine median white 

 line, and lateral and ventro-lateral darker stripes. The elytral 

 scaling is very pale golden-.brown, with two vague stripes and the
