ZOOLOGICAL LITERATURE. 
(Lee.) is distinct from A, rusticus, wliicli he describes {1. c. p. 163), and he 
refers A. gravidus and pinguis (Lee.) to A. crassus. Chaudoir states (/. c, 
p, 164) that Agonodems pedlipes (Lee.) is not A. pedlipes (Dej.), which =?= A. 
dimdis (Lee.). For Leconte’s A. pedlipes lie proposes the name of A. lecontei^ 
CJiaudoir (/. c. p, 165) refers to Agonodems, Trechus partiarius (Say), Acu^ 
pidpus paupercidiis (i)Q].)=zconsimiUs (Dej.), A. testaceus, and A. indistinctus 
(J)ej.), lie characterizes the first and last of those species, lirudgcollus con- 
Jlagratm (Mann.) = cognatus (Gyll.), from which longiuscidus (Mann.) is 
distinct, and of which £. nitens (Lee.) is probably a variety (/. c. p. 166). B, 
longiusculus^ /7^crMS^(Kirby). Acupalpus tantillus, difficilis, and micros (Dej.) 
belong to one species, ’"and are referred by Chaudoir to Bradycellus (1. c. p. 167). 
Chaudoir (/. c. p. 167) refers the following species to Tachycellus (Moraw.), 
which genus he adopts : — Ilarpcdus dichrous md nigrinns (Dej.), IL vulperulus 
{H^y')=ni(jripennis (Dej.), II. autumnedis (Say), Stenol. hadiipennis (Ilald.), 
(fcohccnus ruficrus (Lee.), Brad, nehulosiis (Lee.), Feronia ulrimediu (Say), 
and Trechus tibiedis (Kirby) = Gcoh. queulricollis (Lee.), which is probably 
identical with nigrinus (Dej.). Harp, lonyieollis (Lec,)=/ow^i(>r (Kirby), ac- 
cording to Chaudoir (1. c. p. 170). 
Reiche (Col. Hefte, iii. p. 2) indicates the following synonymy of species 
of Harpalus : — II. grandicollis (Reiche) = var. casjnus (Stev.) j II. reichei 
(D 0 sh.)=var. griseus (Pmz.) j Il.hellieri (Reiche) =s«r<7eus (Dahl.); II. sub- 
ciiUndricus (Reiche) chp,nged to pcdanejoidcs on account of suhcylindricus 
(bej.). 
Harpalus elegans (Prell.). Kraatz (Berl. ent. Zeitschr, 1868, p. 287) 
regards this form as belonging to II. ceneus.
