Cardiothorax. 



Cardiothorax batesi Carter = C. aericollis Pasc. — I would take 

 this, my earliest, opportunity to point out the above synonomy, 

 of which I was made certain by a comparison of my type with 

 Pascoe's in the British Museum. I was certainly misled by 

 Bates' remark as to its being a mere colour-variety of C. walcfc 

 enaerii Hope, whereas I pointed out in my diagnosis of C. batesi 

 its several points of distinction from that species; the name C. 

 batesi must therefore be sunk.
