as a synonym of C. apricarius, it must therefore be 

 a Bradytus of Stephens. There is evidently very 

 great confusion respecting this species, as in the 

 Linnean cabinet it is a true Harpalus. Linneus 

 also in the Systema Natura mentions two localities, 

 Europe and North America, probably confounding 

 two species. 



Sp. 25. Ferrugineus. — Now a Bradytus of Ste- 

 phens. A genus closely allied to Curtonotus of the 

 same author. 



Sp. 27. Vulgaris. — Now an Amara of Bonelli. 

 The monograph of Zimmerman on these interesting 

 insects should be studied by all Entomologists ; the 

 following genera compose the family, viz. Percosia, 

 Celia, Amara, Bradytus, Leirus, Leiocnemis, 

 Amathitis, and Acrodon ; instead of Leirus the 

 name of Curtonotus should be substituted, as pre- 

 viously characterized by Mr. Stephens in his illus- 

 trations of British Entomology. In the Linnean 

 cabinet the insect ticketed vulgaris, is not an 

 Amara but a Platysma. 



Sp. 30. Piceus. — Now an Agonum of Bonelli, 

 according to the specimens preserved in the Linnean 

 cabinet, 



Sp. 31. Velox. — Now a Bembidium of Illiger.
