Calosoma, Fahricms. 



Amongst my remarks on the Linnean Caraboidea 

 will be found a Table of the genera of the Carabidse. 

 I have only to observe, before entering on the spe- 

 cies, that Fabricius included under Calosoma, the 

 Heteromerous genus Adelium, mistaking analogy 

 for affinity. I have only alluded to three species 

 in the Tables ; ten are recorded by Fabricius, as to 

 the rest they require no further notice. 



Sp. 6. Sericeum. — This insect occurs at Hambro' 

 and in Russia, and in various parts of Germany, 

 enjoying an extended range. De Jean makes 

 Cal. Caspium Fischer a variety of the above. It 

 seems doubtful if C. auropunctatum can be con- 

 sidered as the same species. Dr. Fischer adds a 

 sub-genus Callisthenes, which may be regarded as 

 one of Calosomidous genera. Type, C. Panderi. 



Sp. 10. Longicornis. — This species of Calosoma 

 appears to be unknown to most of the Continental 

 collectors, not having occurred since the days of 

 Fabricius ; it was originally described from Sehes- 

 tedt's Cabinet, on the authority of Schousboe, the 

 locality is Morocco. This species was accidentally 

 omitted in my Tables ; it is too late now to alter 

 the press.
