Besides the above-mentioned species, there are short descriptions of seven 

 other species of Loxandrus, by Baron Chaudoir {Extrait de la Revue <■( Magazm 

 de Zoologie, 1868, pp. 61-64), mostly based on a single specimen, viz.: 



lucens, 9-10 mm., Tex.; parvidus, 7 - 5 mm., Carolina; mieans, 7 mm., La.; 

 piceolus, 6mm., Tex.; crenidafus, 6'5-7 mm., Tex.; pro.vimu$, 7'25. Tex.: and 

 rapidus, 7 mm., La. The first three are said to resemble rectus, (lie other to 

 velox and celer, but no exhaustive synopsis can be prepared without reference to 

 the types. 1 ? . (t. S. '
