and, if so, whether he took it with him when he emigrated 
to Australia, are questions which I have at present no means 
of determining. 
The type of Macleay’s C. tenebrioides is in the British 
Museum, and I have compared other examples with 
Wiedemann’s type, so that there is no doubt about the 
identification. The species is apparently confined to Java.

Mr. FE. Fleutiaux having kindly lent me the collection 
of Carabidae made by Commandant Delauney and Capt. 
R. de la Perraudiére in Indo-China, and determined by 
Bates (Ann. Soc. Ent. Fr. 1889, 261-86), I take this oppor- 
tunity of making a few comments suggested by a re- 
examination of the material, excluding species which I 
have dealt with elsewhere. I follow the sequence and give 
the numbers of the species as they appear in Bates’ paper. 
1. Searites mancus Bonelli (p. 261) = S. semicircularis 
Macl. (Ann. Jay. 1825, 24). The species has been taken 
commonly by Mr. R. Vitalis de Salvaza in Tonkin, Annam, 
and Laos. 
2. Distichus 2, (p. 261). Bates. labelled this 
specimen “ Distichus 2 impossible de déterminer.” 
I have compared it with an example of D. lucidulus, 
previously compared with Chaudoir’s type, and can see no 
material difference. This species, as mentioned on a 
previous page, now takes the name of D. parvus Wied. 
5. Clivina bacillaria Bates (p. 261). Although he gave 
this species a name, Bates differentiated it from C. stamica 
Putz. (as determined by him) only by its larger size and the 
shallow emargination of its clypeus. Though the pro- 
thorax and elytra are similar in form, it seems to me quite 
a distinct species. The head is relatively much wider, 
longer, and more roughly sculptured; frontal plates 
elongate, very little rounded at sides, with a sharp longi- 
tudinal ridge running to inner margin of eye; clypeus 
wide, its side extensions rather sharply angled, a well- 
marked transverse ridge in the middle; clypeal suture not 
so deep as in siamica, the whole front immediately behind ° 
it finely rugose and punctate (a single puncture in svamica). 
The prothorax is a little longer, and the spines on the 
intermediate tibiae are exceptionally long and strong. 
Not having yet seen Putzey’s types of this genus (except
