166 Mr. H. E. Andrewes’ Notes on Synonymy 
his O. puncticollis, which (if the traditional identification of 
his species is accurate) he quite correctly supposed to be 
the duplicatus of Dejean. Chaudoir in his Essai mono- 
graphique sur les Orthogoniens (Ann. Soc. Ent. Belg. xiv, 
1871, 99) rightly changed the name of Schmidt-Goebel’s 
Apsectra duplicata to Orthogonius schmidt-goebeli, but made 
the mistake (p. 102) of identifying Wiedemann’s duplica!us 
with the same author's alternans. Bates thought all these 
authors were wrong (Ann. Mus. Civ, Gen. 1892, 399), but 
it is difficult to know what he had in his mind: I have 
in my collection two examples ($9) from the Fea collec- 
tion, presumably identified by him (though the labels are 
not in his handwriting), of which the 3 is O. mellyi Chaud. 
and the 9 O. alternans Wied. 
The species is known at present as O, puncticollis Schm. 
Goeb., an example of which has been compared by Mr. 
Henriksen with the type of duplicatus : Wiedemann’s name 
should in future be substituted for Schmidt-Goebel’s. It 
is a common insect in North India, but I have not seen 
examples from further south than the Central Provinces. 
It occurs also in Burma, the F.M.S8., and Indo-China. The 
type was said to come from Java, but I have seen only 
one other specimen (in the Chevrolat collection at Oxford) 
alleged to come from that locality, and I think it quite 
possible that it really came from Bengal.

This species has previously been identified with C. 
flecuosus ¥. (see above Fabricius, No. 6), but it is actually 
the same species as Motchulsky’s C. marginatus (Bull. Mose. 
1864, iii, 200), redescribed by Chaudoir in his Etude mono- 
graphique des Tetragonodérides, etc. (Bull. Mosc. 1876, 
iii, 32). Wiedemann’s name must now displace Mot- 
chulsky’s. In the type the median black fascia on the 
elytra is exceptionally narrow. ‘The species is spread over 
North India and Indo-China.
