description, notably of the color of body and legs, as well as of the 
impunctate elytral striae, is almost decisive. A cf from Philadelphia 
Neck, Penn., designated as neotype. — Agonum nutans [Lth., 1966, 
p. 617]. 
1567 Feronia placida (1823b: 43). No type area given; Dor- 
chester, Mass., designated as type loc. by Lth., (1966, p. 613). Say’s 
description is by no means decisive but I have followed Lee., accord- 
ing to his collection (MCZ). A $ from Dorchester, Mass., desig- 
nated as neotype. — Agonum placid.um [Lth., 1966, p. 613]. 
1 5 73 Feronia obsoleta (1823b: 57). No type area given. Lth. 
(1966, p. 565) designated Michipicoten, L. Superior, Ont., as type 
loc. but, since afterwards no specimen so labeled could be rediscovered 
at the MCZ, I propose to change the type loc., as below. Say’s 
description cannot be interpreted, but Lee. (1854, P- 57 ) saw a speci- 
men named by the author, and his concept, according to coll. Lee. 
(MCZ), should therefore be followed. By many students, including 
Leng (1920) and, previously, myself (1955b), ohsoletum Say has 
been treated as a synonym of Agonum bogemani Gyll. It is, how- 
ever, distinct (Lth., 1966, p. 565 a.f.). A cf from Bayfield, Wise., 
designated as neotype , and the place as type loc. — Agonum obso- 
letum [Lth., 1966, p. 565]. 
1578 Feronia limbata (1823b: 49). No type area given. The 
interpretation is clear from Say’s description. Fall (1933) has shown 
that Carabus pallipes F. (1787, p. 202 ) is the same species and Say’s 
name therefore falls into synonymy. A cf from Camden, S. C., 
designated as neotype , and the place as type loc. — Agonum pallipes 
F. [Lth., 1966, p. 620]. 
1581 Feronia punctiformis (1823b: 58). No type area given; 
Philadelphia Neck, Penn., designated as type loc. by Lth. (1966, p. 
622). Say’s description cannot be interpreted but I have followed 
Lee., according to his collection (MCZ). A cf from Philadelphia 
Neck, Penn., designated as neotype. — Agonum punctiforme [Lth., 
1966, p. 622]. 
1 595 Feronia parmata (1823b: 49). No type area given; Wis- 
sahickon Creek, Penn., designated as type loc. by Lth. ( 1966, p. 553). 
Say’s description is not decisive; I have followed Lee., according to 
his collection (MCZ). A $ from Wissahickon Creek, Penn., desig- 
nated as neotype. — Olisthopus parmatus [Lth. 1966, p. 553]. 
1 595 (syn.) Olisthopus cinctus { 1834:424). Type area Pennsyl- 
vania. The descriptions of both parmatus (1823b) and cinctus 
(1834) are uninterpretable and, to a great extent, incommensurable, 
containing different kinds of characters. The elytra of cinctus are
