Genus TINGINOTOPSIS Poppius 
In 1915 Poppius (Arch. fiir Naturg., vol. 80A, No. 8, p. 23) es- 
tablished the genus Z%nginotopsis. In 1926 Cheesman (Entomol- 
ogist, vol. 59, p. 266) suggested that “Zinginotopsis is a synonym 
of Hermotinus’ on the basis that Poppius’s description “agrees ex- 
tremely well with Zermotinus Dist., 1904.” However, the specimens 
at hand agree with Poppius’s description very well, especially in the 
structure of pronotum “die Scheibe sehr stark gewolbt und geneigt, 
in der Mitte etwas wor der Basis buckelformig aufgetrieben,” and 
are altogether different from Hermotinus Distant as illustrated by 
Cheesman and by Distant himself. Therefore, 7inginotopsis Poppius 
is a good genus and not a synonym of Hermotinus.
