I have designated it as lectotype. — Carabus sylvosus [Lth. 1961, 
P . 41]. 
1 7 1 Carabus serratus (1823b: 77). No type area given. Ashe- 
ville, N. C., designated as type loc. (Lth. 1961, p. 40). The inter- 
pretation of Say’s name is clear from his description of the serrate 
elytral margin, from which his name was derived. A cf from the 
type loc. designated as neotype. — Carabus serratus [Lth. 1961, 
p. 40]. 
172 Carabus limbatus (1823b: 77). Type area Maryland. The 
application of Say’s name is clear from his description of the elytral 
sculpture. The species has no tendency of geographical variation. A 
cf from Charles Co., Md., designated as neotype and the place as 
type loc. — Carabus limbatus [Lth. 1961, p. 35]. 
1 73 (syn.) Carabus interruptus ( 1823b: 62). No type area given. 
The interpretation is clear from the description of the elytral sculp- 
ture, and the synonymization with vinctus Weber (1801) was ac- 
cepted by Say himself (1834, p. 416). A cf from Germantown, 
Penn., designated as neotype and the place as type loc. — Carabus 
vinctus Web. [Lth. 1961, p. 34]. 
176 Carabus externus (1823a: 150). Type area “Arkansa.” Say’s 
description of the form of prothorax and of the elytral sculpture 
seems sufficient for an identification. A from Little Rock, Ark., 
designated as neotype and the place as type loc. — Calosorna externum 
[Lth. 1961, p. 49]. 
200 Calosorna obsoleta (1823a: 149). Type area “Arkansa” and 
“near the Rocky Mountains” ; apparently the Arkansas River is 
meant. Say’s description of the sculpture and the bluish foveolae of 
the elytra seems to exclude other species. A 9 from Fort Reynolds, 
Colo., designated as neotype and the place as type loc. — Calosorna 
obsoletum [Lth. 1961, p. 49]. 
200 (syn.) Calosorna indistinctum. This is a nomen nudum , ap- 
parently never described by Say (in spite of the quotation “1825: 
1 5 1 ” in Leng, 1920). It was mentioned by Lee. (1845, p. 208) as 
being the same as luxatum Dej. (1826, p. 126; nee Say), that is 
obsoletum Say. 
219 Calosorna luxata (1823a: 149). Type area “Arkansa,,” no 
doubt in the same sense as for C. obsoleta , described in the same 
paper. The luxatum group of Calosorna (Callisthenes) is extremely 
difficult and it is important to fix the properties of the true luxatum 
Say. The original patria, “Arkansa,” no doubt aims at the upper 
parts of the Arkansas River, that is, in Colorado. According to the 
revision of Mrs. Gidaspow (1959, map, fig. 11, p. 312), only what
