48 CARABIDJE. 



Genus 37. OPHONUS, 

 (ffiegler) Steph., Ill Brit. Ent. i. 159 (1828). 



140. Ophonus rotundicollis. 



Harpalus rotundicollis, Fairm., Faun. Ent. Franq. i. 121 (1854). 

 Ophonus obscurus, Woll. [nee Fab.'], Ins. Mad. 58 (1854), 



, Id., Cat. Mad. Col. 17 (1857). 



Harpalus rotundicollis, Schaum, Nat. der Ins. Deutsch. i. 574 (1860). 



Habitat Maderenses (Mad.) et Salvages (ins. majorem, borealem), 

 rarissinms. 



A single specimen of this European Ophonus was captured by 

 myself (during July 1850) at the edge of the little stream at the 

 Forno da Cal, in the north of Madeira proper ; and two more have 

 lately been communicated, from the same island, by the Barao do 

 Castello de Paiva, who has also obtained a third from the Great 

 Salvage. I had formerly identified it with the 0. obscurus, Fab. ; 

 but I am informed that it is more properly referable to the rotundi- 

 coHis, of Fairmaire. The example from the Salvages differs from the 

 Madeiran one in being more brightly cyaneous, and in its prothorax 

 (which is more deeply channelled) being rather more densely and 

 coarsely punctured. 



Genus 38. DICHIKOTEICHUS. 

 Jacq. Duval, Gen. des Col. i. 35 (1857). 



141. Dichirotrichus levistriatus. 



Dichirotrichus levistriatus, Woll., Cat. Can. Col. 60 (1864). 

 Habitat Canarienses (Lanz.), in salinis semel captus. 



Hitherto I have seen but a single example of this insect, which 

 was taken by myself (at the Salinas) in the extreme north of Lan- 

 zarote, in the Canarian Group. It is a good deal allied to the Euro- 

 pean D. obsoletuS) though scarcely (I think) any geographical modi- 

 fication of that species. 



Genus 39. STENOLOPHUS. 



(Megerle) Steph., III. Brit. Ent. i. 165 (1828). 



142. Stenolopims Teutonus. 



Carabus vaporariorum, Fab. [nee Linn. 1761], Syst. Ent. 247 (1775). 



teutonus, Schrank, Enum. Ins. Austr. 214 (1781). 



Stenolophus vaporariorum, Brulle, in Webb ct Berth. (Col.} 57 (1838).
