Sado. 



I know of no described species at all closely resembling 

 this in form. It comes, perhaps, nearest to N. Manner- 

 heimi, Fisch., but is of more slender form, with longer 

 thorax, more gradually narrowed behind, and with 

 broader reflexed margins and much longer hind angles. 



Nebria reflexa. 

 Modice elongata, subgracilis, piceo-nigra, supra leviter 

 iridea, antennis partibus oris pedibus (coxis inclusis) et 

 thoracis elytrorumque marginibus (cum epipleuris) piceo- 

 rufis ; capite parvo post oculos sat angustato, collo supra 

 transversim perparumimpresso ; oculis modice prominen- 

 tibus ; thorace relative magno, quadrato-cordato antice 

 gradatim subrecte angustato, angulis anticis valde pro- 

 duces, postice quam antice multo magis angustato, 

 angulis posticis productis et supra elytrorum basin ele- 

 vatis, margine laterali late explanato, reflexo, basi punc- 

 tato ; elytris elongato-ovatis versus basin paullo an- 

 gustatis, plica basali fere recta, angulo humerali obtuso 

 sed distincto, punctulato-striatis, interstitiis vix convexis 

 tertio punctis 4 — 5. Long. 8£ — 9 mm., $ , ? . 



Iwakisan, under stones, September. 



Var. N. Niohozana. 



Distinctly larger and relatively longer (10| mm.) ; 

 thorax longer, base of antennae and thighs sometimes 

 darker piceous. Male and female. 



Niohozan, under snow, June. 



The species has a small head, like N. Lafrenayei. The 

 thorax is similar in shape, but broader and more rounded 

 on the sides. 



Nebria Japoniea. 

 N. Gyllenhalii amnis sed multo major et magis 

 elongata. Nigra nitida tarsis palpisque picescentibus ; 

 capite laevi ante collum perparum transversim impresso
