400 Dr. J. L. Leconte’s Synonymical Notes 
45. Amara extensa, W. p. 314, is a short stout Harpalus. 
The dorsal puncture on each elytron is quite distinct. I had 
not time to make such a detailed examination as would enable 
me to oe D ern 
6 nis, W. p. 315, =A. impuncticollis, Say. 
4T. FHoryálue defixus hw. xr 316. I did not see the speci- 
mens of this species: it is probably H. cautus, Dej. 
48. Peryphus equalis, W. p. 316, — Bembidium planatum, 
Lec. 
49. Laccophilus maculosus, W. p. 317, — L. decipiens, Lec. 
= L. truncatus, Mann 
50. Atemeles reflexus, W. p. 3 darn cavus, Lec 
51. Tropisternus binotatus, W. p.3 8, — Hydrophilus lim- 
batus, Lec.,—the variety with the al” margin of the elytra 
pale. 
52. Philhydrus lividus (Forster) W. p.319. Not examined. 
e mesosternum must be seen before this species can be 
properly identified. 
53. Saprinus consimilis, W. p. 319, is S. oregonensis, Lec., 
and is not at all allied to S. assimilis (Payk.), but to S. 
lugens, Er. 
Bite ‘Neer erophorus conversator, W. p. 320, =N. pollinctor, Lec. 
My species has priority over the one described by Mannerheim 
under pie same name, which is, moreover, a variety o 
riti 
55. ARIS ES armatus, W. p. 320, — C. angularis, 
56. Anomala contermina, W. p. 321, is a small species of . 
Lachnosterna belonging to the Trichesthes group: the punc- 
tures are not very dense, but equally strong upon the prothorax 
and elytra; but the hairs of the former are longer; the epi- 
stoma is rounde d, and the margin is very strongly reflexed. 
It is probably not ‘different from L. tristis (Fabr.) =M. pilosi- 
Pent — ; which is very widely distributed in North 
ot s: Jide collocatus, W. p. 321, = Phobetus testaceus, 
58. Ancylonycha nigropicea, W. p. 322, = Diplotaxis brevi-

H 
59. A. us W. p. 322, is a smaller species of Diplo- 
taxis, more strongly punctured and with the epistoma less 
reflezed.' I cannot identify it without reference to the series 
in my collection or to my monograph of the Melolonthide of 
the Pee States 
A, uninotata. , W. p. 323, is a Lachnosterna of the form 
of L. fusca, but smaller, with the punctures of the prothorax
