On the Synonymy of the Genus DeltocJiilmn. 



John W. Shipp, 



The genus DeZ/ocMwm was described by Eschscholtz 

 (Entomogr. L 1822, p, 37) for bis species named dentipes 

 (id, p, 38. t. 1. f. 4) which was probably the only species 

 of the genus with which he was acquainted as he mentioned 

 no other. 



In 1826, Vigors (Zool. Journ. IL 1826. p. 512, t 19, 

 f. 1) described the same species as Annamesis Macleayi. 



Lep. et Serville (Encycl, Meth. X, pp. 352 — 53) in 

 1825 described the genus Hyboma taking for his type ica- 

 jius Oliv. 



Kolbe (Stett. Ent. Zeit. 1893. p. 191 et seq.) divides 

 the genus Deltochilum into a number of subgenera — some 

 of which are however quite entitled to generic rank — as 

 foUows. Paedhyboma, Calhyboma, Deltochilum, Euhyboma, 

 Aganhyboma, Meghyboma and Telhyboma. 



Kolbe however places icarus Ol. as the type of the 

 restricted genus Deltochilum and proposes a new genus Meg-
