SOME NEW SYNONYMS IN CLYTRINAE 
(COLEOPTERA, CHRYSOMELIDAE) 
By F. Monros

I list some new synonyms in Clytrinae, which have been 
established in the course of my work in connection with 
Junk’s second edition of the “Coleopterorum Catalogus”. 
Not all the names in this list are plain synonyms; in most 
cases they represent different color patterns or minor dif- 
ferences in size and microsculpture which tend to be lost 
in large series. In my opinion, none of these differences is 
of either specific or subspecific value. 
I have seen specimens (in several cases types or speci- 
mens from the typical series and typical locality) of all 
the names listed below.
