Haeviaphysalis cinnabarina C. L. Koch, 1844, p. 237 ; 1847, p. 123, PL XXVI, 

 Fig. 97, $ . When in Berlin in 1909, one of us (G. H. F. N.) examined and 

 drew the unique type from Brazil, and, after consultation with the late 

 Prof. Donitz, concluded that it was closely allied if not identical with 

 //. punctata Canestrini and Fanzago. We have since been able, however, to 

 identify it with the American form known as H. chordeilis (Packard) which 

 therefore falls into synonymy. Koch spelt the name correctly at first (1844), 

 but later (1847) misspelt it cinnaberina, doubtless having in mind the German 

 word " Zinnober " ; the original si3elling has not been followed by other 

 authors hitherto ^ The body of the type specimen is still red, like cinnabar. 

 Koch's original (coloured) figure is scarcely recognisable as that of a Haema- 

 physalis. 



Haemaphysalis sanguinolenta C. L. Koch, 1844, p. 237 ; 1847, p. 124, PI. XXVII, 

 Fig. 98, 9 • The coloured figure is poor, the scutum too elongated. Nuttall 

 examined the unique type in the Berlin Museum in 1909, and identified 

 it with H. cinnabarina ; the scutum is slightly more elongate than in the 

 type. The specimen came likewise from Bi'azil.
