Pamera was instituted expressly to replace the preoccupied 

 "Pachymera" (sic!) of Lepeletier and Serville.* The type will 

 then be, not any of the 8 species newly described by Say, but one 

 of the original species of Pachymrrus. As, to the best of my 

 knowledge, no type has been thus selected, I now choose pedester 

 Linne. Aphanus Laporte, published later in the same year (i. e. 

 1832), was also erected to supersede the preoccupied Pachymer- 

 uSj and I have previously shown the type to be pedester. Ptochi- 

 omera was erected as a subgenus of Pamera, but was not de- 

 scribed.

Goeze's ''Entomologische Beytrage II" (1T78) was over- 

 looked by Mrs. Fernald ; many of the new names Avere invalid, 

 being trinomial, but the following demand recognition: 



1. Tacliardia (Coccus) Gummilaccae Goeze = lacca (Kerr 



1782). 



2. Eidecanium (Coccus) Liriodexdeox Goeze = lirioden- 



dri (Gmelin 1789). 



3. "Coccus" clematitis Goeze ^ Xo. 1458 Fernald's Cat. 



I. Gossyparia spuria (Modeer 1778) =Coccus ulmilanatus 

 Goeze 1778. I do not know which has priority. 

 iST. B. : Goeze's name was not divided. 



5. Lepidosaphes ulmi (Linne) = Coccus conchiformis 



Goeze 1778. 



6. Pulvinaria carpinl (Linne) = Coccus mespili Goeze 



1778. 



7. Coccus rufus Schrank 1776 is (sec. Goeze) probably an 



Ac arid ! 



8. C. aquaticus Goeze 1778 is probablv the egg of a Hirudi- 



nid! 



(d) Xew ISTames. 

 The following new names are necessary: 



1. Oncoceplialus semiramide nom. nov. = || lineatus (Wal- 



ker). 



2. Varus legionicus nom. nov. = || varius (Walker). 



* The original Lepeleterian spelling was "PacJii/merus"; "Paclui- 

 mera" was a laps. cal. of Bethold's in 1827.
