'^^HE following list includes 111 species or varieties of coleoptera 

 -*- new to the Kansas list. Fifty-two of these were collected 

 the season of 1901 at or near Onaga, seven or eight species ai Topeka, 

 and one at Galena, by F. F. Crevecoeur ; three in Douglas county and 

 sixteen in Hamilton and Morton counties, by F. H. Snow, of the State 

 University, Lawrence ; two in Pratt and Barber counties, by S. G. 

 Mead and Claude J. Shirk, of McPherson ; two at Kansas City, Kan., 

 by G. P. Mackenzie ; one at Coolidge and two at Topeka, by Eugene 

 Smyth ; one at Oakley, by D. E. Lantz, and one at Tonganoxie, by 

 T. B. Ashton. 



Determinations and verifications were made principally by H. C. 

 Fall, of Pasadena, Cal, and P. J. Schmitt, of Beatty, Pa. To these 

 two gentlemen thanks are due. 



In the list of 1899 and 1900 a few errors occurred, as follows : 

 Treckus riibens is chalyleus. Oodes texcmas is cupreus. Rhynchites 

 glastinus is cyanelhis. Corticaria serrata is americanum. Agrilus
