One female — the only specimen I know — was kindly given to 

 me by Mr. C. Schaeffer (Brooklyn), who had it in his collection 

 labelled "California?" I believe, to be sure, it comes from north 

 Mexico ! 



The pattern of the elytra resembles very much that of the European 

 Cicindela lunulata F., a humeral and an apical lunula, two marginal 

 spots (connected with each other) and two discoidal spots. The 

 coloration of the body and the shape of the tip of the elytra is like 

 that of Cicindela sinaloa Bat. 



In 1897 I published, together with Mr. R. Becker and Mr. C. F. 

 Hoge (Deutsche Entomologische Zeitschr. ), a paper on the Mexican 

 CicindelidcC and their relationship to the species of the United States 

 and the tropical countries of Central America. I could not adopt 

 Bates' opinion that the Mexican fauna should belong to the neotropical 

 region, as 30 species (of the 80 Mexdcan Cicindelidae) occur in the 

 United States, but only 1 7 are to be found also south of Mexico. At the 

 same time I already stated that in future this proportion would still 

 change in favor of the North American species, as the extreme north 

 of Mexico and the extreme south of the United States were not yet 

 known sufficiently. Time has proved my opinion. One genus of the 

 United States {Amblychila) was discovered lately in Sonora. I de- 

 scribed Cicindelawick]iami{xo\\\%oVi\htx\\ Arizona and northern Mexico; 

 C. arizonensis, generally considered to be a variety of C. viridisticta 

 Bat., is a "good " species, and on the other hand, C. Juemorrhagica 

 Lee, is but a subspecies of C. cartliagcna Dej. ; C. {^pusilla Say 

 var. ) lunnlouga Schpp. occurs also in Lower California; C. flavo- 

 punctata Chev. was found near Nogales (Arizona !) ; Tetracha chevro- 

 lati Chd. — considered always a variety of T. infuscata Mann., 

 belongs as a subspecies to I. Carolina L. ; Cicindela melania Bat., is 

 the same as C. viatica Chev. (var.) and C. ritteri is the same as 

 //^;/7/// Schpp. var., etc. As I am enabled now to correct some other 

 notes in my former paper (1897) I give herewith a new list of the 

 Cicindelidee of Mexico.
