RECLASSIFICATION OF SUBFAMILY AGRYPNINAE 141 
Agrypnus cognatus (Van Zwaluwenburg) comb. n. 
Compsolacon cognatus Van Zwaluwenburg, 1957 : 8, fig. 2a, 36. 
Adelocera (Compsolacon) cognatus Van Zwaluwenburg; Van Zwaluwenburg, 1966 : 298. 
Holotype. E. CARroLines: 9, No. 62925. (USNM, Washington). Allotype: 
2, same locality (BPBM, Honolulu). Not examined. 
The generic attribution is based on the description and figures. 
Van Zwaluwenburg (1966: 298) believed this species to be a secondary junior 
homonym of A delocera cognatus Candéze, 1892, and proposed a new name A. nesiotes. 
As the species are not congeneric (see also Lacon cognata (Candéze) p. 61), Van 
Zwaluwenburg’s new name is unnecessary. 
Agrypnus collisus (Candéze) comb. n. 
Lacon collisus Candéze, 1891a : 772. 
Adelocera collisus Candéze; Fleutiaux, 1926 : 96. 
The description is based on two syntypes from BurMA: Montagnes de Carin, 
[Karin] detroit des Cheba (900-1100) metres, decembre, Fea collection. 
Syntypes: ?>MCSN, Genoa. 
The generic attribution is based on Candéze’s comment that the species resembles 
colonicus Candéze and taciturnus Candéze. Both these species are now attributed 
to Agrypnus. 
Agrypnus colonicus (Candéze) comb. n. 
Lacon colonicus Candéze, 1881 : 8. 
Adelocera colonica (Candéze) Fleutiaux, 1926 : 96. 
The description is based on an unrecorded number of specimens from Cochin- 
China [S. Vietnam] in the Mniszech collection. 
Type-material: ?IRSNB, Brussels. 
The generic attribution is based on the following specimen; Laos: 1 g, Ht. Laos; 
Lacon colonicus Cand. [Fleut.] (BMNH). 
Miwa (1934: 186) places colonicus in synonymy with Paralacon taciturnus 
(Candéze) but Fleutiaux (1947 : 263) treats colonicus and taciturnus as separate 
species of Adelocera. 
In my opinion the specimen on which the generic attribution of colonicus is 
based is conspecific with the syntypes of taciturnus but examination of the type- 
material of colonicus is necessary before the synonymy can be confirmed. 
Fleutiaux (1947 : 264) suggests that Paralacon kawamurae (Miwa, 1929 : 230) 
may be asynonym of this species. This cannot be confirmed until the type-material 
of kawamurae has been located and examined.
