RECLASSIFICATION OF SUBFAMILY AGRYPNINAE 159 
Agrypnus gibberosus (Candéze) comb. n. 
Lacon gibberosus Candéze, 1889 : 71 (5). 
Adelocera gibberosus (Candéze) Fleutiaux, 1926 : 96. 
The description was based on an unrecorded number of specimens from Mada- 
gascar in the MNHN, Paris. I have been unable to find this material. The 
specimen recorded below, as Fleutiaux’ labels imply, may be part of Candéze’s 
original series. 
The generic attribution is based on the following specimen standing as gibberosus 
Candéze: 3, MADAGASCAR, Goudot 1834; ? Type ?; type ? ayant perdu son etiquette 
[Fleut.] (MNHN, Paris). 
Agrypnus gibbus (Candéze) comb. n. 
Lacon gibbus Candeze, 1882 : Io. 
Lacon gibbus Candéze; Neboiss, 1956 : 8. 
The description is based on an unknown number of specimens from Cleveland 
Bay, Australia, from the de Monchicourt [Horn & Kahle, 1936: 181, via Candéze 
to IRSNB, Brussels], and Mniszech (see p. 278) collections. According to Neboiss 
(loc.cit.) the type is in the IRSNB, Brussels, but since Candéze clearly has more 
than one specimen and did not designate a type, a formal lectotype designation is 
required. I have not seen the type-material in the IRSNB, Brussels. 
The generic attribution is based on the following specimen: AUSTRALIA: I 9, L. 
gibbus Cand. [Cand.]; Aust. Sept., ex Oberthur (MNHN, Paris). 
Agrypnus glirinus (Candéze) comb. n. 
Lacon glivinus Candéze, 1865 : II. 
Adelocera glivinus (Candéze) Fleutiaux, 1926 : 98. 
LECTOTYPE (present designation). Fiji Is.: Ins. Fidgii; Janson coll. ex 
Candéze, 1903.130; Lacon glirinus Cdz. Fidjee, Thorey [Cand.]; Lacon glirinus 
Cdze., Type (ex coll. Cand.) [Janson] (BMNH). The abdomen is missing. 
Agrypnus goudotii (Candéze) comb. n. 
Lacon goudotii Candéze, 1857 : 106, pl. 2, fig. 1. 
Lacon goudotii (Candéze) Fleutiaux, 1926 : 99. 
Candéze’s comment that the last abdominal segment is sometimes smooth suggests 
that he had specimens of both sexes before him at the time of the description. 
He records the length and width as 25 mill. and 8} mill. respectively (I mm longer 
than the figure). Up to the present time I have been unable to locate a specimen 
of this size in the BMNH collections. The female from the Dejean collection 
bearing Jansons determination label with the word ‘Type’ measures only 22 mm.
