 I agree with Sturm in thinking that Pallas had this species 

 in view when he described S. Mopsus, although it is also 

 clear that he was acquainted with the pilularius of Fabri- 

 cius. The truth, perhaps, may be, that he confounded two 

 species ; the one taken in Daouria, near the Selenga, be- 

 ing a variety of G. sinuatus ; and that taken on the banks 

 of the Wolga, being G- pilularius.
