472 Mr. H. E. Andrewes on Oriental Carabide. 
one of which bears the label ‘ Tanger. Schousboe, Mus. T. L. 
& S., Carabus depressus, F.” The name Schousboe does 
not refer to a collection, but to a collector. 
If the Indian type is ‘not at Copenhagen, it is unlikely to 
turn up elsewhere, and must be regarded as lost. 
BEMBIDIINI. 
Bembidium europs, Bates, Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. (5) xvii. 
1886, p. 156. 
This species, founded upon a single specimen taken by 
Mr. George Lewis in Ceylon, is widely distributed throughout 
India. I consider it identical with B. opulentum, Nietn. 
(Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. (3) ii. 1858, p. 420), but Bates 
thought that Nietner’s species was synonymous with B. nilo- 
ticum, Dej. Spec. Gen. v. 1831, p. 73. Dejean described his 
species from Egypt, whence it ranges through Mesopotamia 
and China to Japan, and extends southwards into Indo- 
China. I have seen a solitary specimen from India taken by 
Mr. H. G. Champion in W. Almora (Himalayas). On 
distribution, therefore, B. opulentum is more likely to be 
europs than niloticum, and Nietner’s description, though 
inadequate, fits ewrops better. Bates does not say that he 
has seen any authentic specimen of B. opulentum. 
Bembidium xanthotelum, Bates, Ann. Mus. Civ. Gen. 1892,

Elaphropus, Motsch. 
The pectinate claws are difficult to see, but I have been 
able to detect them in several Oriental species. The following 
should, I think, be referred to this genus, in addition to 
Motschulsky’s 2. gracilis and E. latissimus :— 
Tachys amplians, Bates, Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. (5) xvii. 
1886, p. 155.
