described by Mr. F. Walker now in British Museum, 283 
The type remains unique in the British Museum. 
5. Eleodes convexicollis. 
E. opscurA Say, 9. 
6. Eleodes binotata. 
E. HISPILABRIS Say, forma laevis Blaisd. 
Two specimens, both Q. In Junk’s Catalogue #. binotata 
Walk., is placed as a synonym of H. sponsa Lec., a species 
apparently of more Southern distribution. The type agrees 
exactly with the description of the forma laevis Blaisd., 
of E. hispilabris. 
7. Eleodes conjuncta. 
E. opscura Say, d- 
Stated by Walker to be “like H. convexicollis in struce 
ture” (vide swpra). 
8. Eleodes latiuscula. 
E. numMERALIS Lec. (fide Leconte). 
9. Helops inelusus. 
H. convexuuus Lee. (fide Horn). 
The type bears an additional label “ Helops convexulus 
Lec. (Horn),” and is apparently correctly determined. 
10. Epicauta immerita (Lytta). 
E. sERICANS Lec. 
\ 
This identity was suggested with some doubt by Dr. Horn 
in 1873. Unfortunately I have no named specimens of 
E. sericans for comparison, but the description and com- 
parison of the latter with the nearly allied HE. ferruginea 
Say, certainly seem to confirm his opinion. 
Both these names were published in 1866, but as Part I 
of Leconte’s ‘‘ New Species” bears date ‘“‘ March—April ” 
1866, it is probable that this has priority. |
