 Panzer ; Schaum, Ins. Deutschl., i., 1, p. 729. 

 Hakodate ; three specimens. 



Bembidium (Leja) xanthocerd. 



B. Sturmii simillimum ; seel differt antennis testaceo- 

 flavis. 



South Yezo. 



Bembidium (Lopha) pcediscum. 

 B. 4-maculato proxime affine et simile ; differt solum 

 pedibus pallide testaceis femoribus apice leviter infus- 

 catis, antennisque obscure piceis articulis basalibus vix 

 rufioribus ; viridi-aeneum, elytris (ut in B. 4-maculato) 

 utrinque flavo bimaculatis sed macula posteriori minore 

 rotundata interdum obsoleta, striato punctatis striis 

 exterioribus postice valde abbreviatis ; thorace (ut in 

 B. 4-maculato) angulis posticis exstantibus. Long. 3 — 

 3£ mm. 



Hakodate and Sapporo ; in dry pastures.

 4-maculatum from Europe, East Siberia, and North

 fuscous knees. 



Bembidium tetraporum. 



B. prasino, Dufts., aftine ; sat clepressum, olivaceo- 

 aeneum elytris fusco-testaceis marginibus aeneis utrinque 

 foveis duabus latis prima apud medium ; antennis 

 articulo primo rufo pedibus testaceo-rufis ; sulcis fronta- 

 libus latis profundis flexuosis ; thorace transversim 

 quadrato ante basin sinuato modice angustato angulis 

 posticis rectis, fovea basi rugulosa bistriata juxta angu- 

 lum plica modice elevata ; elytrorum striis integris 1 — 2, 

 3 — 4 et 6 — 7 apice conjunctis ibique 5ta profundius in- 

 sculpta et curvata. Long. 4| mm. 



Awakisan ; Junsai ; Sapporo. 



Bembidium aureofuscum. 



B. prasino, Dufts., affine. Angustior, parallelo- 

 morphum, supra fusco-aureum, versus latera viridescens ;
