Page 210.— Genus LACHANISSUS. 



This genus must be dropped. I made it for the reception of some 

 species of Metaxymorphus, the claws of which were not pectinate. 

 I find, however, that the claws are very feebly pectinate, and have 

 three very small teeth on each side. The absence of punctm-e on 

 the third interval of the elytra is not sufficient to consider the species 

 I included in this genus to be removed from Metaxymorphus, 

 although in some species of the latter {M. frcnatus, pictus, agilis, 

 Goryi, &c.) the pectination is more abundant and the teeth are 

 longer.
