OX THE NOMENCLATURE OF BRITISH CARABID^. 125 



Dufts., as Fabricius erroneously applied to it the name of 

 Car. vernalis, Panz. 



Acu-palpus derelictus, Daws. — A single authenticated spe- 

 cimen of the insect on which this species is founded, obligingly 

 communicated to me by Mr. Janson, is but a dark variety 

 of dorsalu. 



Acup. exifjHus. — I consider a variety ofluridus, Dej. 



Brady cellus f ulcus. — The species described by Mr. Daw- 

 son under that name is not harpalinus, Dej., as is erroneously 

 stated, but a mixture of Acup. rufulus, Dej., and distinctus, 

 Dej. ; the reddish specimens with nearly right angles to the 

 thorax are rufulus, the dark ones with sharp angles distinctus, 

 Dej. Marsham's name C. fulvus has no claim to priority, 

 as his description is utterly valueless, and he also probably 

 confounded both insects. 



Trechus incilis, Dawson, is rivularis, Gyll. 



Of the Bemlidia I will say nothing at present, and merely 

 remark that the B. punctulatum, Drapiez, chlorophanum, 

 Sturm, cannot be, as Dawson states, the Carab. velox of 

 Linne, as that species does not occur in Sweden.
