RECLASSIFICATION OF SUBFAMILY AGRYPNINAE 185 
Agrypnus molitor (Candéze) comb. n. 
Lacon molitoy Candéze, 1875 : CXIX. 
Adelocera molitoy (Candéze) Fleutiaux, 1926 : 96. 
The description is based on an unrecorded number of specimens from Mindanao; 
cote S—O [PHILIPPINES]. 
Type-material: ?>IRSNB, Brussels. 
The generic attribution is based on Candéze’s comment that this species resembles 
setiger, judex, multiforis and fibrinus (q.v.). 
Agrypnus mozambicana (Fleutiaux) comb. n. 
Adelocera (Lacon auct.) mozambicana Fleutiaux, 19326 : 3. 
Holotype. MozampBiguE: g, Museum Paris, Mozambique, Beira, P. Lesne, 
1928; Decembre; Adelocera (Lacon) mozambicana Fleut. type [Fleut.] (MNHN, 
Paris). This is an Agrypnus species, despite the fact that Fleutiaux compares it 
with Adelocera aethiopicus (Candéze). 
Agrypnus mucoreus (Candéze) comb. n. 
Tilotaysus [sic] mucoreus Candéze, 1857 : 173. 
LECTOTYPE (present designation). MApAGASCAR: ¢, 16084 [museum catalogue 
number, refers to locality and collector on following label]; Madagascar, Goud.; 
mucoreus Cand. Madag. Goud. [Gerstaecker] (NMHU, Berlin). 
The absence of Candéze’ determination label is probably due to Gerstaecker 
(see p. 275). The lectotype measures 15-5 mm compared with the published 
length of 18 mm. 
Paralectotypes: 1 g, 1 9, Madagascar Goud., No. 16084 (NHHU, Berlin). 1 J, 
Madagascar; Janson Coll. 1903.130; Tilotarsus mucoreus Cdze. ex coll. de Mniszech 
[Janson] (BMNH). The absence of Candéze’s determination label on the BMNH 
specimen is probably due to Janson (see p. 276). The males measure 17 mm 
and the female 16-5 mm. 
Fleutiaux (1899 : 223) states that pulverews Candéze is an immature specimen 
of this species but comparison of the lectotypes has shown that this is not the case. 
Agrypnus multiforis (Candéze) comb. n. 
Lacon multiforis Candéze, 1857 : 117. 
Adelocera multiforis (Candéze) Fleutiaux, 1926 : 96. 
LECTOTYPE (present designation). E. PAKISTAN: 9, Sylhet [Janson]; Janson 
coll. 1903.130; Lacon multiforis Cdz. Sihlet [sic, Cand.]; Lacon multiforis Cdze 
Type (ex coll. Cand.) [Janson] (BMNH). 
The published locality is ‘Indes-Orientales’ see p. 271.
