Bareinas is allied to the genus recently proposed by 
Banks, Acantharades (Phil. Journ. Sci., iv, p. 580, pl. xi, 
fig. 8, 1909). It therefore seems strange that Bergroth 
(Ann. Soc. Ent. Belg, 1911, p. 186) should say that 
Acantharades was very closely allied to the neotropical 
genus Dysodius. More strangely still, Bergroth says that 
the Malayan species D. quaternarius, which he described in 
that American genus, is the same, and takes precedence 
over the A. giganteus, Banks. Both these species have 
been figured by the respective describers, and a reference 
to the tigures will at once show the great dissimilarity in 
the structure of the head. Banks describes the head in 
his genus as “juga porrect, stylate, passing ‘tylus by its 
own length,” and this character, clearly shown in his own 
figure, is absent in that given by Bergroth.
