Species, the European synonymy of which appears to be chaotic, 

 and which it is prudent to retain in our catalogues with the present 

 names till the matter is settled. Italics indicate the unsettled names 

 as they relate to our fauna: 



Licinus silphoides Fab. = pnnetulatus Fab. [unnecessary.] 



Pristonychus terricola Hbst.; whether this or inaequalis Panz. is the older is 



unsettled. 

 Bradycellus cognatus Payk. = deutschi Sahib. 



Hydroporus morio Sharp = inorio Gem. and H. [some confusion.] 

 Rhantus bistriatus Bergst = suturellis Harris [some confusion.] 

 Cercyon flavipes Fab. = var. of hcemorrhoidale Fab. 

 Orphilus glabratus Fab. := tiiger Rossi. 



Nitidula bipustulata Linn. = bipiinetata Linn, [unnecessary.] 

 Corymbites tessellatus Linn. = sjcelandicus Mull, [distinct species.] 

 Bruchus obsoletus Say = obtectus Say [equal in point of time, and obsoletus 



takes the precedence by long use.] 

 Otiorhynchus maurus Gyll. = diibiiis Stroem. 

 O. monticola Germ. = arctieus Fab. 

 Sciaphilus muricatus Fab. =^ asperatus Bonsd. 

 Lepyrus colon Fab. ^= palustris Scop. 

 Hylastes trifolii Mull. = obseurus Marsh. 



Last summer I took Ceutorhynchus erysimi Fab. , at Pocatello 

 in southern Idaho. This species has been recorded from Kansas 

 (Knaus, Trans. Kan. Acad, of Sciences, vol. ix, p. 60) and also 

 occurs in Iowa. How widely it may have been distributed over the 

 East I do not know, H. F. Wickham.
