This species may be identical with one of the three preceding ; 

 but I have never seen it.

Cnemalobus darwinii. 



Cnemalobus efanrom, Waterh. Mag. N.H. 1840, iv. p. 356 (Odon- 

 toscelis). 



Odontoscelis curtisii, Waterh. 1. c. p. 356. 



This species is very distinct from the other Cnemalobi, and may 

 be at once known by the reflexed borders of the thorax. The type 

 of C. darwinii is bottle-green, while C. curtisii is black ; I can see 

 no other difference between them. They were probably taken in 

 the Straits of Magellan.

Cnemalobus abbreviatus, Putz. /. c. p. 366. 



Cnemalobus sulciferus, Philippi, Ann. Univ. Chile, 1864, p. 461. 



This very variable species is common on the Andes and the coast- 

 range, at an elevation of from 3000 to 8000 feet s.m. ; and despite the 

 number of synonyms that I have given, I believe I have omitted 

 several others. On several occasions I have captured it by thousands
