III—MONOGRAPHS AND SYNOPSES. 
SAMUEL HENSHAW.—References for specific identification. <Appen- — 
dix II of Le Conte and Horn’s “ Classification,” 1883, pp. 535-552. 
A “list of bibliographical references to memoirs, in which more or less com- 
plete synopses of the families, genera, and species of the Coleoptera of 
the United States have been published.” 
Since the followiug list includes only synopses on families, subfamilies, or 
tribes, Mr. Henshaw’s paper must be consulted in regard to single genera.
