Oss. This subgenus has some connexion with the genera Sphodrus and Anchomenus ; from the 
former it may easily be distinguished by its thorax ; and from the latter by its antenne. The 
posterior sinuation of the elytra seems to indicate a relation to Catascopus.

- Subgenus OMASEUS Zieg. 
Oss. The following species differs from the type of the subgenus which, according to German 
catalogues, is the Carabus melanarius of Mliger, or C. leucophthalmus of Fabricius, in having the 
last joint of the maxillary palpisecurifurm. I do not, however, think it necessary to separate it 
generically from that insect.
